Chester hosts Rum-Runners crowd

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN Ñ Visitors to Chestertown this weekend Ñ who encountered men in fedoras, women in flapper dresses, and vintage sedans Ñ may have wondered if theyÕ d been hijacked in a

time machine.

This sedate rural town hosted hundreds of revelers Friday, Sept. 13 through Sunday, Sept. 14 for the festive events of Rum-RunnersÕ Weekend, which celebrated the exuberance and frivolity of the Roaring Twenties.

Restaurants and other venues were

jam-packed for the weekend, the first of its kind over a half-century or so for Chestertown. Ò The whole weekend was an unbelievable success Ñ This town was rocking all weekend,Ó local resident Cindy Mead said a day after the events wound down.

LAKE GEORGE Ñ The noise of screeching tires and massive clouds of noxious smoke emanating from Ò burnoutsÓ during the recent Lake George Adirondack Nationals car show held in the village recently were bad enough. Such incidents as well as the traffic gridlock during the three-day event prompted have dozens of complaints from emergency response officials, local citizens and business owners this last week.

But when crowds moved into the street and surrounded vehicles whipping around in circles spinning their tires, dozens if not 100 or more people could have been killed Ñ and the practice must be stopped if Lake George is to continue hosting the popular event, village officials said Monday Sept. 14.

Lake George Mayor Robert Blais said that he would be meeting soon with officials of the club sponsoring the event, Albany Rods & Kustoms, to devise remedies for the long list of problems associated with the car show, held this year from Sept. 6 through Sept. 8.

Bolton Senior activities scheduled

Benefit auction raises cash for Chamber

The Bolton Landing Chamber of CommerceÕ s annual auction was held Tuesday Sept. 10 at The Sagamore Resort and event officials said this week it was a “huge success” due to the area businesses and individuals participating.

Attendance at the auction exceeded 120 people and the silent and live auctions yielded more than $9,000.

One of the notable highlights of the evening was when event deejay Andy Pratt auctioned off a mixed berry pie baked by Carol Sheridan, and resident Skip lower bid the pie up to $175.

CarolÕ s pies have become a tradition and Skip and several other local residents, have paid handsomely for them.

The drawing for the Harley Davidson Sportster motorcycle and trailer was conducted at the conclusion of the evening. The winning ticket holder is a man from Mattituck, NY on Long Island.

Harvest Fest to feature bed & canoe races

BoltonÕ s annual Harvest Festival is scheduled for Saturday Oct. 5 from 2 p.m. to 11 p.m. at the Bolton Conservation Club.

Once again, bed and canoe races will be featured, along with an apple dessert contest, apple cider press demonstrations, square dancing, childrenÕ s activities, storytelling. The event features a community meal with attendees bringing pot-luck dishes to share and the younger set making sÕ mores. Participants are encouraged to bring along local produce to contribute to the Ò stone

Rum-Runners Weekend from page 1

Mead, along with other members of the Tri-Lakes Business Alliance, planned the weekend.

Bootlegger chase, vintage sports games

On Saturday morning, 23 antique cars and hundreds of spectators participated in a mock police pursuit of a rum-runnerÕ s vintage sedan over Landon Hill Road. In this re-enactment, a Model A Ford filled with bootleg whiskey barrels was chased by a vintage police car. The procession included state Troopers as escorts.

The rum-runner chase was followed by a Babe Ruth Battle of the Bats home run derby, in which 123 children and adults participated, while old-time baseball music echoed across the town recreation field. Poul Carstensen and Mark Sissons pitched balls to the contestants, and local girl scouts held a bake sale at the field.

Vaudeville/burlesque show ‘busted’

A vaudeville/burlesque show held Saturday afternoon at the Carol Theatre in Chestertown was a sellout. A variety of acts were featured, whether it was entertainers in 1920s garb singing vintage songs, dancing, or cracking jokes to the delight of the standing-room-only crowd of 275 people or more. The show, organized by Al Tolomeo, included jazz music of his ensemble

as well as 25-cent bags of popcorn provided by local Boy Scouts.

Just as a burlesque act started during the show, mock Ò federal agents” armed with billy clubs and flashlights raided the theater in an attempt to take Ò bootleggerÓ Don Butler into custody Ñ but they at first nabbed decoy Don Stewart, until the crowd “ratted outÓ Butler and he was dragged away.

After the show, Circle B Ranch provided free horse-drawn carriage rides around town to various destinations including area restaurants, which were offering $19.25 dinner specials.

Crowd parties during Speak Easy Nights

Two Ô Speak EasyÕ events held Friday and Saturday nights at the Panther Mountain Pub were extremely popular, as the venue hosted wall-to-wall people, Mead said. Ò You couldnÕ t even walk into the pub, it was so jam-packed,Ó Mead said.

Admission to the pub required patrons to whisper the not-sosecret phrase Ò Donnie sent meÓ to the bouncer through a small trap door in the entry door, donated by Stephenson Lumber and specially outfitted by McCluskey’s Hardware.

Nearly all those attending were in Roaring Twenties costumes, and the party was as exuberant as any held nearly a century ago, Mead said. Ò It was wonderful...crazy Ñ People were dressed as gangsters, flappers and temperance women,” Mead said.

She added that people from age 21 through 85 partied with gusto. Ò Everyone got into it Ñ The younger set wore their greatgrandfatherÕ s three-piece suits, fedoras, white ties and suspenders, while the seniors brought clothes out of their closets that their parents may have worn.Ó Providing 1920s music was the Jive Five jazz band.

Charleston dance contests highlighted both evenings.

Area restaurants jammed with revelers

Most all the restaurants had lines of people waiting outside to be seated. Lonnie Shenefield, proprietor of The Bullhouse restaurant, said she hosted lively crowds both nights, particularly on Saturday. Ò Lots of people were gathered at the bar, and every single person was dressed up,Ó she said, adding her restaurant had vintage jazz-swing music playing during the two evenings. Ò It was amazing Ñ there was a great spirit.Ó Main Street Ice Cream Parlor, with its staff dressed in 1920s garb, also hosted waiting lines. Eatery co-owner Helena Robbins said they offered two mushroom-stuffed meatloaf meals for the $19.25 price along with vegetables grown in their garden Ñ and they were sold out early. Ò It was a great week Ñ there was a lot of action in town,Ó Robbins said. HelenaÕ s daughter Amelia, 14, sang in the vaudeville show, and danced with her friend, Emily Gould. Ò The event really brought people into the area,Ó Robbins continued.

Mead said she met people at the weekendÕ s events from Lake Luzerne, Bolton Landing, North Creek, Warrensburg and elsewhere. Ò This has never happened in Chester,Ó Mead said.

Weekend demonstrates town’s potential

Don Butler, a founder of the Alliance, said the weekend surpassed everyoneÕ s greatest expectations. Ò The vaudeville show was spectacular Ñ and it was all local talent,Ó he said.

Great GatsbyÕ s brunches were offered Sunday. The celebration ended with a classic car show Sunday afternoon.

Mead and Butler said the Alliance plans to make this a yearly event to promote business and bring notoriety to the North Warren communities. Ò The town came alive just like we were hoping,Ó he said.

Firefighters, citizens recall terror, sacrifices made on 9/11

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ Volunteer Warrensburg firefighters in formal uniforms Wednesday, Sept. 11 marched under stormy evening skies and laid a wreath in front of the Floyd Bennett Memorial Bandstand in honor of those who died in the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

Lightning momentarily lit up the sky and a gust of wind blew out many of the candles that the crowd of 300-plus were holding. The streetlights suddenly went dark.

Allison Lanfear of the Warrensburg High School Band played a mournful rendition of Ò TapsÓ on her trumpet, underscoring this highlight of the solemn ceremony.

Dozens of firefighters from 11 fire companies in northern Warren County were joined by nearly 300 area citizens in the annual Sept. 11 Memorial Services hosted by the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co. Former Warrensburg Fire Chief Jim Hull talked about the character of emergency responders and others who put their own lives at risk to aid others in distress.

He noted that the New York City firefighters who were vaporized in the towersÕ destruction had no hesitation to enter the doomed buildings, and their actions saved tens of thousands of lives.

“They were firefighters until the very last second of their lives,Ó Hull said, noting that their commitment to others was apparently in their DNA. Firefighters in the lower Adirondacks have that character, Hull said, noting they have often left family holiday gatherings, even funerals, to help others, putting their own safety at risk.

Watching a video depicting the 9/11 terror attacks during Warrensburg’s annual Sept. 11 Memorial ceremony are (left to right): Kyle Bennett, Ashley DeMarsh, Dan DeMarsh, Jackie Nelson and Daalten DeMarsh.

Nearly a dozen fire companies and more than 300 people participated in the ceremony that honors the citizens who died in the attacks and the emergency responders who saved many thousands of lives while risking or losing their own.

Warrensburg firefighter Jessica Monroe rang a fire bell 20 times in four series of five rings that represents a tribute to departed firefighters.

‘Cancer Sucks’ walk coming soon

Nancy, Chris, and Brooke Nemec invite all friends of the late George R. Nemec and all area citizens to participate in the annual Cancer Sucks Walk, held in his memory.

George Nemec, who died in 2008, contributed many hours of work on behalf of the Warrensburg community, as well as being the owner of a successful business that has for decades provided good jobs for many local people.

The fundraiser is scheduled for Saturday Oct. 5. Sign-in is set for 5 p.m. at 10 Lake Avenue in Warrensburg. The suggested donation is $10 per person, but people are quite welcome to donate more. All proceeds go to the C.R. Wood Cancer Center at the Glens Falls Hospital in GeorgeÕ s memory.

The walk raised $5,600 last year and the charityÕ s organizers, who thank everyone for their continued support, seek to raise that amount in the 2013 walk. The amount has been increasing each year Ñ the fundraising event raised $3,500 in 2011.

Those with questions or donations, contact Brooke Nemec at: 744-5035 or drop off donations at NemecÕ s Sport Shop on Main St. in Warrensburg.

long-lasting collaborative, caring spirit among citizens. Ò From that great evil and trial we all went through as a nation, our countryÕ s citizens stepped up and moved forward together, appreciating each other, helping each other as

neighbors, volunteering in so many ways to make our communities better,Ó he said. Ò And how blessed we are in the North Country to have the neighbors and first responders we have here.Ó The volunteer fire companies of Chestertown, Lake George, Bolton Landing, Stony Creek, Thurman, Horicon, Pottersville, Garnet Lake, Johnsburg, and North River participated in the ceremony. Area ambulance squads, including Warrensburg Emergency Medical Services, were also represented. The 90 or so firefighters stood either in formal uniforms or in soot-stained turnout gear that bore witness to their service.

Those attending seemed transfixed as they watched a video, depicting scenes from the horror-filled day 12 years earlier, showing stunned and panicked New Yorkers covered in soot, as well as firefighters ushering people to safety. It was followed by a patriotic video of soldiers on duty, emphasizing the resolve of the U.S. to defend itself from tyrants.

The Horicon Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary provided refreshments that were served after the ceremony.

Nancy Barrow of the Warrensburg Free Methodist Church offered the invocation and benediction. The Warrensburg High School Band played several patriotic selections.

Event emcee Kevin Geraghty, president of the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co., closed the ceremony praising those attending for remembering, year after year, the sacrifices made by those who lost their lives in the terror attacks. Ò You always remember,Ó Geraghty said as the rainstorm bore down on Warrensburg, noting the fire company was committed to honoring, in the years to come, those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

L. George Business Improvement District goes to public hearing

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE Ñ A plan devised by village property owners to create a Business Improvement District is to be detailed at a public hearing at 7 p.m. Oct. 7 in the Lake George firehouse.

In a unanimous vote Monday Sept. 16, the

village board endorsed the plan and set the hearing date. Blais said the board had the option of holding additional hearings before making a decision on enacting the plan.

The plan calls for establishing a special taxing district in the villageÕ s commercial zones, and levying a tax of 61 cents per thousand of assessed valuation. If enacted, a $300,000 proper-

NCM play group resumes JOHNSBURG Ñ A play group for children 3 years old and younger Ñ accompanied by a parent or caregiver Ñ is starting up soon for fall 2013 at the North Country Outreach Center, 2718 Route 28 in Johnsburg.

The group meets the first, second and third Tuesdays of each month from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. The sessions, sponsored by North Country Ministry, are offered at no charge.

The play group incorporates unstructured play, creative experiences, music and movement, and learning about the world through

discovery. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming in a large well-equipped play room.

The play group, founded about eight years ago, is led by volunteers experienced in early childhood education and human services who encourage parents and caregivers to be involved in the play as well, group coordinator Jan Thurling said.

North Country Ministry Executive Director Jill Harrington said that in the Adirondacks, families are more isolated from neighbors and playmates due to the rural nature of the area.

Thurling added that childhood development experts stress how important play is to development and wellbeing in early childhood.Ó Ò Through play, even very young children learn how to negotiate and cooperate with others,Ó Thurling said, adding that play activities also encourage creativity.

To participate in the play group, contact North Country Ministry at 251-4460. In most cases, transportation can be arranged.

Anyone interested in volunteering to help conduct the play group is encouraged to call 251-4460.

ty would face an additional annual tax of $183.

The money raised would bankroll improvements to infrastructure in the district and contribute toward special events. The initial yearÕ s budget for the district is estimated at $150,000, with a portion of this sum being contributed by the town and village.

Blais noted Sept. 16 that some of the properties in the district are residential, and a halfdozen or so of the property owners have filed a petition against forming the Business Improvement District. He observed, however, that these property owners would benefit, through the DistrictÕ s investments, by gains in their property value. These properties, he added, were likely to be converted to commercial use in the future.

He also noted that if 51 percent of the property owners in the district file objections to the District plan within 30 days of the Oct. 7 hearing, the district would need to go to a public referendum, rather than being enacted by a vote of the village board. This is not likely to happen, he said, as the Business Improvement District has widespread support among business owners, and many of them have been involved in the DistrictÕ s formation, he said.

The target date for the Business Improvement District to be formed is June 1, 2014, he said. Expenses in forming the district are to be covered by the DistrictÕ s budget. Three Lake George Village Board members are to serve on the DistrictÕ s governing board, and state law calls for the village board to approve or reject

the DistrictÕ s annual budget.

In other business, the village board: • scheduled public hearings for 7 p.m. Oct. 27 on amending two local laws, including restrictions on commercial signs. The changes would prohibit business owners from having more than one A-frame sign outdoors, and the other would limit outdoor cafes to one menu board Ñ and requiring plantings on such patios.

• approved spending $1,500 in Bed Tax funds for Lake George Oktoberfest, to be held on Canada Street Oct. 11 through Oct. 13. The festival was highly successful in its 2012 debut, with thousands attracted for German food and music, locally brewed beers, childrenÕ s games and a craft fair. The villageÕ s main roadway, Canada St., was closed down for the event.

• endorsed the appointment of four new members to the village Fire Department: Benjamin Sahler, Doni Smith, Scott Smith and Justin Edwards.

• heard that bids for the $2.1 million project to upgrade the village sewer treatment plant are due Oct. 4.

• approved hiring Michael Harrington of Argyle to work full time at the sewer treatment plant at a rate of $15 for an initial training period of three months, with the expectation for the salary to be raised to $18 per hour thereafter.

Village Public Works Superintendent Dave Harrington, not a relative of the Argyle man, said the new hire was Ò extremely knowledgeableÓ about plant equipment.

Flooding in Colorado heart wrenching

I

t is hard not to harken back to August 2011 and the devastation the region endured at the hands of Tropical Storm Irene when viewing the images coming from the 15 Colorado counties most impacted by the recent violent flooding there.

Stories and photos shared on Facebook by loved ones and friends in Colorado are heartwrenching. The news is tragic and the story is still unfolding.

Five people have been confirmed dead after 15 inches of rain pounded Colorado non-stop for nearly a week. As of Monday afternoon, 1,200 people remained cut off from the outside world with no electricity and dwindling supplies of food and running water.

State emergency officials say the death toll is expected to rise as rescue efforts into mountainous backcountry areas have been severely hindered by the wet weather. Roadways and bridges have crumbled by the rising flood waters, which cover more than 2,000 square miles across 15 counties Ñ an area twice the size of the state of Rhode Island.

To date, nearly 19,000 homes have been damaged, with at least 1,500 destroyed and 11,000 people have been evacuated.

President Obama signed a major disaster declaration last weekend, ordering federal aid for the flood-ravaged state, and the Colorado National Guard is at the scene, using 20 helicopters to rescue people trapped by washed-out roads and bridges. Most had been grounded, however, by heavy rains, fog and hampered visibility.

ItÕ s been two years since the North Country endured similar conditions following Tropical Storm Irene. People here are still rebuilding and awaiting the final buyout of homes destroyed

by Irene. Images of that fateful storm that were published in this newspaper are eerily similar to photos being circulated on news wires from Colorado, with homes underwater and people trapped by disintegrated roads and other infrastructure.

In comparison, Tropical Storm Irene dumped upwards of 10 inches of rain on the North Country, much of it in less than a 24-hour period, combined with winds of 69 mph at its center Ñ just 5 mph slower than needed for hurricane status. The storm caused 10 deaths, left 1.1 million people without power and caused $1.3 billion in damages.

Locally, the communities of Au Sable Forks, Keene, Jay and Upper Jay were some of the hardest hit, although few communities escaped the stormÕ s wrath. Like in Colorado, President Obama declared a disaster declaration, paving the way for help from the Federal Emergency

Management Agency and the New York National Guard was on site to help devastated communities recover.

Blame it on global warming, natural weather cycles or just plain rotten luck, few would argue that our weather has gotten more and more extreme as of late. One hundred year floods seem to be commonplace these days and our aging infrastructure is not liking it. With that in mind, it is imperative that initiatives such as Gov. CuomoÕ s NY Rising Communities be put in place to help communities rebuild in such a way that they are better prepared for the next severe weather incident.

If there is one thing history has shown us, it is that the North Country will undoubtedly face again the type of devastating flooding Coloradans are now experiencing. The only way to mitigate the damage is to be realistic in that it will happen again, and begin preparations now knowing where the majority of the damage occurred in the past.

While the up to $6 million pledged to the North Country under the governorÕ s NY Rising Communities initiative is a start, it is but a drop in the bucket toward the money needed to shore up the stream banks, bridges, roadways and other pieces of infrastructure that will be impacted by the next severe weather event.

In the meantime, on a local level, it is vital to support your first responders as well as the American Red Cross Ñ the individuals who will be at the forefront of coming to your aid.

Just as disaster workers from the American Red Cross were deployed here in the North Country in August 2011, the group is now in Colorado, providing food and shelter to those affected by the flooding.

More than 250 trained Red Cross disaster workers are currently deployed to Colorado, along with more than 20 emergency response vehicles and six trucks of relief supplies. Working with the Southern Baptist Convention, the Red Cross has served more than 7,100 meals and snacks. Earlier last week, as many as 1,000 people stayed in 24 shelters across the state.

People can help by donating to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund by visiting www.redcross.org; calling 1-800-REDCROSS; or simply texting the word REDCROSS to 90999 to make a $10 donation. You can also check on the status of a loved one by visiting www.safeandwell.org.

People on a national scale came to the aid of New York state and the North Country following Tropical Storm Irene. It is time we return the favor. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board

Turning Back the Pages

By Jean Hadden •100 years ago - Sept. 1913• Bloody death in Johnsburgh

of the Johnsburgh neighborhood became suspicious and believing that the true story of the shooting had not yet been told they requested that District Attorney Kiley make an investigation at the scene of the mishap, which he did.

Wellington S. Morse, 28, of Brooklyn, was arrested at North River Sept. 6, 1913 on a charge of manslaughter in the second degree. He is accused of causing the death of Frank Spaulding through culpable negligence in handling a shotgun. The arrest was made at the conclusion of the investigation made by District Attorney Kiley and Morse was taken to the County Jail at Lake George to await a hearing to be held Sept.

15, 1913 before Justice A.R. Braley at North Creek. Morse is being represented by Attorney F.V.R. Turk of North Creek.

Morse, admitted that he pointed a loaded gun at Spaulding, first leveling it at his head and slowly dropping it until it pointed at his legs when it discharged. As far as could be learned, there was no trouble between the two that could lead to the shooting, although for some reason that has not been explained, each had armed himself with a gun before the shooting.

There is a story that one of the women present figured in the case and that jealousy prompted the shooting but this can not be substantiated.

The women who were present, Mrs. Hess and her companion Miss Sheffer, returned to Philadelphia but are expected to return later to testify at the hearing.

Death from shock and loss of blood caused by a gunshot wound sustained in an accident at a camp at Thirteenth Lake, in the Town of Johnsburgh, was the sad faith of Frank Spaulding, 15 years old, whose home was at Silver Bay, Lake George, but who was staying at the camp with his brother, Myron Spaulding, 24, who is employed at the Garnet Mines at North River.

Death overtook the lad shortly after midnight, Sept. 2, 1913, about three hours after the accident occurred, while he was being rushed in an automobile to Glens Falls Hospital, where it was hoped that something could be done to save his life. The end came when the machine was near the entrance to the Fort William Henry Hotel grounds on the state road in Lake George.

Young Spaulding, received the fatal wound from a shotgun when it was allegedly accidentally knocked from a table at the camp. The jar supposedly caused the shell to explode and the full charge lodged in the boyÕ s left leg just below the knee, tearing away the flesh from the calf and nearly severing his leg.

An automobile owned by Claude Pereau of North Creek was pressed into service and Dr. William R. Lee, accompanied by Dr. Lee Somerville of North Creek rode with the boy in the automobile after they had dressed the terrible wound. The machine was driven at the highest speed possible without endangering the life of the patient but his strength slowly gave out until they reached Lake George where he breathed his last breath.

After the boyÕ s death the automobile was turned around and the body was taken to J.A. WoodwardÕ s undertaking rooms in Warrensburgh where it was prepared for burial and then it was taken to the home of his father, Frank Spaulding at Silver Bay.

The Hon. William Cameron of Glens Falls, who is connected with the state Conservation Department, is investigating a recent forest fire in the town of Stony Creek which is alleged to have been set by an aged woman named Clements, who is said to be demented. Considerable valuable timber was destroyed.

from page 6 What the letter writer doesnÕ t know is that I have personally known, worked for, admired and hired men and women of all races and skin color during my 59 years on this earth. Each is unique and each has made choices in their lives that either caused them to achieve their goals and find happiness or have kept them from doing so. In nearly every case those who took personal responsibility for their actions, good or bad, were capable of holding their heads high. Those who looked to blame others for their misfortunes always seem to be stuck in the same place and could never place blame on the single person most responsible for holding them back Ñ themselves.

Mr. Kleiman, I recognize and respect your effort to put your thoughts in print and for speaking up when you disagreed with my position. Under normal conditions your letter would not have been published were it aimed at anyone other than me, but since IÕ ve chosen to put my views on display it would be unfair for our editor to withhold your views. This country faces many problems and we stand a far better chance of addressing them if we are civil with each other and seek solutions not based on prejudice but on achieving results. I would also be happy to publish your suggestions on solving the violence in many of our troubled New York City neighborhoods and how you would address the racial differences in our country.

individual. He has been at the lake all summer where he posed as an actor. He went about wearing a cartridge belt and either carrying a revolver or shotgun. About three weeks ago he reported having seen a large bear in the vicinity and from then up until the time of the shooting had been hunting the bear with a revolver.

Man and dog parted

Dewey Wells, the Civil War veteran, who prides himself on his resemblance to Buffalo Bill and who with his faithful dog, Tim, occupied a shack in Lewisville (River St.), Warrensburgh for some time a few years ago, was sent to the Warren County Home on Sept. 17, 1913 from Glens Falls, where he has been staying as of late. Dewey yielded to his appetite for strong drink and was arraigned before Judge Safford in city court on a charge of intoxication. He complained of a severe pain in his left side and demanded medical treatment, but his plea was not heeded and he finally pleaded guilty to the offense charged.

He was heartbroken at being separated from his dog, Tim, his faithful companion for many years. (Note - In this column in the Jan. 7, 2012 Adirondack Journal is the story of Dewey and TimÕ s Ò shackÓ on River St. being burned out, leaving them homeless.)

Bad year hereabouts

Crops are generally poor owing to two June frosts and almost continuous drought since then. Hay is less than half a normal crop, late potatoes are almost a total failure, apples are less than 15 per cent of a normal and plums are a total failure. We had a hard frost on the night of Aug. 25, 1913 which did a good deal of harm.

Letters Takes issue with publisher’s column

To the Editor: Is anyone else out there disturbed by the weekly racist rantings of the publisher of (ElizabethtownÕ s) only newspaper? This time Mr. Alexander likens his being stopped by a policeman for a very good reason Ñ his car resembled that of a vehicle used in a crime, the race of the driver being irrelevant Ñ to the stopping of a black man simply for being black!

But then, thatÕ s IT, isnÕ t it, the absurd non-logic that says that, since some black men commit crimes, then all black men are suspects, because they Ñ the guilty and the innocent Ñ RESEMBLE each other?

How a presumably educated human being arrives at middle age with such a lack of insight is truly puzzling. That he is the voice of a newspaper is an insult to the publication. Well, maybe heÕ s not the only voice: I urge the Editorial Board to use its own column to separate themselves from their embarrassing boss Ñ unless, of course, they agree with him.

I received a call this week from an elderly lady residing on Mud Street who would like to thank a young man. Here are her words: Ò I would like to thank a little boy here on Mud St. that takes care of all the ladies here. When he is not in school, he checks on us once or twice a day to see if we need anything. Sometimes he just stops in and says he was just passing through and wanted to say Ô helloÕ . Ò He has been a good companion of mine for about four years.

He always brings me a small gift or card that he has made special. He is the most thoughtful little boy I know. Ò The times we have sat on the porch just chatting with me have meant so much. So many times he has shared his breakfast with me. Ò Thank you so much for everything you have done, you are so special to me. Many thanks for being such a loving and thoughtful friend to all of us, especially the elderly.Ó -- It sounds like a boy with outstanding character!

Car show

restaurants in the village reported that while the nightly parades of show cars were being conducted, retail activity all but ceased due to their stores being inaccessible. He suggested rerouting the parade down Beach Road and from its present route down the length of Canada St. from the north end of the village to the southern end.

from page 1 Ò The number of complaints have been enormous,Ó he said. Ò We want them to hold the show in the village, but itÕ s got to be safe and sane.Ó In addition to the vehicular mayhem and unruly crowds egging on outlaw drivers, problems included noise Ñ particularly through the nighttime hours, the tons of garbage strewn on sidewalks and properties, and lack of parking.

Also, local fire police and ambulance squad officials have warned that if an emergency were to occur, responders would not be able to provide assistance due to the extreme traffic backups occurring during the weekend.

Blais told village board members Friday that this yearÕ s Adirondack Nationals, the 25th annual held in Lake George, was a record-breaker in attendance as well as number of registered vehicles and spectators throughout the village. Ò This year show attendance was up enormously,” he said. “Club officials said the 2013 show was by far their biggest in history.Ó However, the predominant problems, Blais said, are not with the Adirondack Nationals exhibitors or club members, but with the non-registered hot-rodders that flock to Lake George for the weekend.

The Mayor added that the two parades scheduled by car show officials were launched several years ago with the intention of solving the problem of the dozens burnouts which threaten public safety — and are officially prohibited at the event. He noted that show officials are posted nightly along the parade route, ready to revoke the registration stickers from

Parking shortage looms, solution sought

Besides vehicle ‘burnouts’ or extreme tire spinning, threats to public safety associated with the Adirondack Nationals Car Show Weekend in Lake George Village include traffic gridlock which can prevent fire trucks and ambulances from responding to emergencies. The show was held this year from Sept. 6-8.

drivers who spin their tires, and these sentries are empowered to ban the rule violators from participating in the show for three years.

But despite the prohibition, 2013 hosted a record number of burnouts, which can be seen on a dozen or so YouTube videos. The most graphic

of the videos is named Ò Lake George Burnouts 2013Ó and was posted by James Baxter.

It was also noted that Battlefield Park was damaged by apparent tire-spinning episodes.

Village board member Joe Mastrodomenico said that owners and managers of shops and

Blais also observed that in 2014, the immense crowd in Lake George for the car show Ñ as well as the other major local events Ñ will be incurring another problem: lack of adequate public parking.

In 2014, 588 parking spaces that existed this year will be gone: about 500 temporarily in use in the Charles Wood Park, and 88 others in the lot behind GiuseppeÕ s Restaurant where the proposed multi-story Marriott Courtyard Hotel is to be built.

To offset this loss, village officials have conducted a survey to identify potential sites for a new public parking lot. Their list of sites, after talking to the property owners, has been winnowed down from a half-dozen to three.

Sept. 16, the board voted to pay up to about $1,500 to have the properties appraised. The parcels are on Parrott Street, McGillis Avenue and the largest is at 75 Dieskau St. where the Woodbine Motel is located. This plot is in a hollow, so the site could theoretically accommodate a multi-story parking garage in the future, Blais said. He noted that by law, the village could not pay more than appraised value for any real estate it purchases.

Injury hampers young Burghers’ gridiron effort

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ Doing their best to adjust for the loss of their quarterback due to an injury, the senior Warrensburg Youth Football team put up a good showing Sept. 14 in a contest they lost to Corinth 37 to 21.

The effort was lead by the rushing attack of Hunter McKenna, Jesse Griffin and Tommy Moore, who combined for 285 yards and three touchdowns.

The young BurghersÕ de-

fense was led by Zach Barber, Jackson Corriveau, Jaron and Jesse Griffin, Hunter McKenna, Bill Cameron and Wyatt Baker with a substantial number of tackles and good pass coverage.

Coach Gary Baker said the young Burghers their threeyear starting quarterback, Maclane Baker, was sidelined one day before the Corinth game with a broken arm, but his teammates stepped up and put in a remarkable effort in reconfiguring both the offense and defense to adjust to the loss of a key player.

Ò We worked incredibly hard last week in preparation of this game, because we knew they were a tough team,Ó he said. Ò Friday night we were scrambling to fill this void not only on offense but at defensive end where he played so well. I felt like the kids gave a great effort Saturday under the circumstances.Ó

Zachary Carpenter and Reece Rundell took over Maclane BakerÕ s role as quarterback, the coach said. Ò They both helped us tremendously,Ó said Gary Baker, who added that David Luck filled in for Maclane in his defensive role.

Coach Baker said these 5th and 6th grade players were

now working hard to adjust to the team realignment, and were looking forward to a game against Ticonderoga Sept. 21 at home on the Warrensburg Town Recreation Field. The 3rd and 4th graders, who had a bye last weekend, will be facing Fort Edward away on Sunday Sept. 22.

Big Tupper Ski Area to open this winter

TUPPER LAKE Ñ The Board of Directors for ARISE announced Friday that they plan on re-opening Big Tupper Ski Area for the 2013-2014 ski season.

ARISE and Big Tupper Management recently met to discuss the overall operation, and to review the financial challenges they are faced with. ARISE Chairman Jim LaValley said that this years operation will be handled entirely by volunteers. He went on to say that, Ò even though the operation is all volunteer, the people

involved bring incredible experience and knowledge about the ski industry. And even though the ski experience will be a no frills operation, it will provide a great ski experience.Ó This season, Big Tupper will not be selling pre-season passes, but will wait for enough snow to arrive before offering any ticket sales. Day passes will cost $25, and ARISE is working on discount pricing for books of 5 or 10 passes. ARISE Board Member Russ Cronin, Jr. said, Ò because we do not have snowmaking, we thought the best financial approach for the skiing public is

to wait until we have enough snow. We are hoping for a great skiing winter.Ó LaValley said that, Ò our lifts have been inspected, trails will be mowed, and our application to the Adirondack Park Agency has been submitted. We were left with enough money to get ourselves to the point of opening. And, we will be holding a couple of fundraising events to help with some of the larger expenses, including insurance and grooming.Ó
