Warrensburg eyes youth center By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ For well over 30 years, a youth center in town has been a dream of the community. Every decade or so, when a town planning survey was taken, establishing a youth center was named as a top priority, but it was never accomplished. Now, it seems like the concept might become a reality, if the plans of several lo-
cal ministers materialize. Three local pastors met recently with town supervisor Kevin Geraghty, proposing that a youth center be established in a church building on Smith St. thatÕ s seen little use for many years. Spearheading the plan are Nancy Barrow, minister of the Free Methodist church; Ron Allen, leader of the local Pentecostal Holiness Association chapter; and Stephen Andrews, pastor of the First United Methodist Church of Warrensburg.
Andrews said this week that for years, heÕ s observed the need of more organized activities for youth. “When I first came to Warrensburg, I felt there should be a youth center Ñ a place for kids to hang out and build friendships,Ó he said Nov. 18. After talking with the other two pastors Ñ members of the Warrensburg Ministerial Association Ñ the idea began taking

DOOMED FACIAL ORNAMENT — Rex Reynolds III, a social studies teacher at Warrensburg High School, has pledged to shave his trademark mustache — adorning his face for more than three decades — if WCS students raise $500 for charity. Photo by Thom Randall
Ò The players took a lot of swipes and I got a lot of cuts,Ó he said, noting that in this current challenge, the shave will be conducted safely at the Cutting Crew salon. Ò That wonÕ t be happening again.Ó Since as far back as about 1980, or before college, Reynolds has always worn his mustache, he said, noting he cut it off one other time, but grew it back. Another time, about four years ago, Reynolds pledged to shave his head for dual fundraisers conducted by WCS baseball players, for Operation Santa Claus and for a family left homeless by a home fire. The players raised about $300 in that effort. Reynolds is also known for aggressively
collecting from other male faculty members for LaPointÕ s annual charity basket raffle. Fiorentino said she and the students were looking forward to seeing Reynolds, who is planning on retiring soon from his teaching post, give up his facial hair. Ò It may be hard on him, losing his mustache and retiring at the same time,Õ she chuckled. Ò Maybe heÕ ll have an identity crisis!Ó Reynolds said that he is happy to make the sacrifice, considering it will boost the contribution to a worthy cause. Ò IÕ m looking forward to the whole community being involved,Ó he said.

WARRENSBURG Ñ A popular local teacher is likely to be giving up a signature aspect of his appearance in an effort to raise money for charity. Rex Reynolds III has pledged to shave off his trademark handlebar mustache Ñ a key feature of his face for more than 30 years Ñ if Warrensburg High School sophomores raise at least $500 for Operation Santa Claus. The charity provides toys, clothing and food to local youngsters during the holiday season. Reynolds, a Social Studies teacher at Warrensburg High School, made the promise to assure that many local children can fully enjoy Christmas Ñ but heÕ s a little squeamish about giving up his mustache for the cause, he said. “If they meet the goal, it’s definitely going to be weird to have my mustache gone,Ó he said, tugging on a corner of it. Ò I really take it for granted.Ó Months ago, Reynolds was approached by Kayla Sweet, now a Sophomore at WCS, asking what price he put on his mustache. Reynolds quoted a sum of $500, which he thought at the time was high, he explained. The news got back to Class of 2016 advisor April Fiorentino, who approached Reynolds and said, Ò Are you serious?Ó he recalled. Fiorentino said this week that the students are having fun with this challenge, which will mean the eradication of ReynoldsÕ facial trademark Ñ a mustache that looks like it belongs to an 1800s Western desperado. She added that she is more than confident that the $500 threshold will be reached — so sure that a shaving session has been scheduled for Dec. 9 and a check presentation on Nov. 21 from the class to Florence LaPoint, who operates the charity. Ò I have people saying, Ô Whatever you are short in donations, call us!’” Fiorentino said with a laugh. “I’m confident Rex will get his mustache sheared off.Ó To contribute to the cause, cash can be inserted in collection jars set out at various retail stores around Warrensburg Ñ Jacobs & ToneyÕ s Meat Store of the North, OscarÕ s Smoke House, Braley & Noxon Hardware, NemecÕ s Sporting Goods and Cutting Crew hair salon, she said. Ò IÕ m happy the kids are thinking Ô out of the boxÕ for this fundraiser,Ó she said. Ò The more fun it is, the more kids are going to participate.Ó One fun and out-of-the-ordinary aspect of the fundraiser is that the students will be baking mustache cookies and mustache tree ornaments to sell Dec. 7 at Christmas in Warrensburg. Twice in the past, Reynolds has pledged his hair growth for a purpose. In 1992, he was coach of the Warrensburg Junior Varsity Boys Basketball Team, which was enjoying a pretty good 15-4 season, Reynolds recalled. It was just days before a matchup with rival Lake George, which was undefeated at that point, he continued. Ò I told them, Ô If you guys beat Lake George, you can shave off my mustache,Õ Ó Reynolds said, adding that his team rose to the challenge and beat the Warriors by 5 points. Right after the game, the players shaved off his mustache in the school cafeteria.

Citizens air objections to boat launch relocation By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — As state DEC officials explained their pending project of reconstructing the Million Dollar Beach parking lot at a public meeting Nov. 14, local residents who live near where the beachÕ s boat launch is to be relocated voiced angry criticisms of the move. At times, people in the audience shouted their objections, interrupting the state Department of Environmental Conservation officials’ presentation. The shouts were loudest when DEC staffers said their plans werenÕ t subject to the state Environmental Quality Review process. Although they defended their intentions to relocate the launch on the east side of Million Dollar Beach, the Department of Environmental Conservation officials listened to the citizens’ objections and said they would be re-evaluating where the boat launch should be situated. The parking lot and the adjacent stretch of Beach Road are to be reconstructed with innovative porous pavement which is designed to allow stormwater to soak into the ground rather than run off the road and wash pollutants into the lake, they explained. New drainage is also planned to prevent the stormwater from flooding areas of the lot, particularly in the underpass near the beach’s bathhouse. Recurring flooding has closed off the underpass Ñ a safe way to access the beach Ñ for several years. The project includes traffic pattern changes — including the construction of a roundabout and the conversion of a roadway beside the beach from one-way traffic to two-way. The changes are intended to abate traffic snarls, backups and confusion. A new drop-off point for people headed to the beachÕ s bathhouse will replace a crosswalk that now poses a danger to the public, DEC officials said. These particular changes were praised by many in the overflow crowd that packed the Lake George Town Hall for the informational meeting. But the re-positioning of the boat launch within several hundred feet of lakeshore residences, however, spurred plenty of angry objections from the property owners, who predicted unsafe boat traffic, noise and environmental degradation near their shoreline properties. The proposed launch would be within 230 feet of the dock in front of Richard and Candy BartonÕ s house on Rose Point Lane, and within a few hundred more feet other nearby lakeshore properties. The possibility the launch and an accompanying boat-washing station might be open 24 hours per day also sparked concern. Barton said the water at the proposed boat launch site was far too shallow to accommodate modern power boats.
Peter Keating, of 4 Rose Point Lane, agreed, noting he could walk across the bay to the Million Dollar Beach swimming area without the water reaching his knees because of accumulated sedimentation. DEC officials refuted the claim, saying they’d measured the water in 2012 Ñ but they pledged to measure the depth again. Ò We need to conduct another survey to see whatÔ s really going on,Ó DEC Regional Director Robert Stegemann said. Keating also said the site was already busy without the addition of boat traffic. “There are kayakers, canoeists, swimmers and fishermen in that area Ñ itÕ s very popular,Ó he said. Ò If you add motorcraft, someoneÕ s going to get hurt.Ó He also said boat traffic would disturb the turtles, ducks, blue herons now inhabiting the bayÕ s marshy area. Ò These plans would be detrimental to wildlife,Ó he said. Keating and Richard Barton said the boat traffic would threaten the safety of the local residents and guests swimming off their private beaches. Keating predicted that the million-dollar homes would lose 10 percent of their property value, causing a loss of tax revenue for the town. The DEC officials detailed how they’d be establishing a new trail off the parking lot for snowmobiles, linking the lake to a regional sled route. Keating claimed this new connection would create Ò a highway for snowmobiles.Ó Ò These changes will create tremendous noise and severe safety concerns,Ó he said. Local resident Susan Bailey, an operating room nurse, predicted that the excessive noise would disrupt her sleep patterns, affecting her job performance. Ò Do you want be rolled into my operating room when I havenÕ t had a decent nightÕ s sleep?Ó she asked. Ed Landry, a fisherman, confirmed the claim that the water was too shallow for boat navigation. Ò You have to walk out 100 feet away from shore to reach deep water,Ó he said, noting that the area was also choked with lakeweeds — which wouldn’t mix with boat traffic. Landry added that with marinas elsewhere on the lake charging $65 to $100 to park and launch, and the stateÕ s likely charge of $15 at the public launch, there would be a huge demand for the 24 spaces allotted in the parking lot for boat trailers Ñ and that number of spaces was grossly inadequate. Residents of Rose Point Lane and its vicinity predicted that cars and boats trailers would be jamming not only the parking lot, but nearby residential streets. A DEC official replied that tickets would be issued to anyone parking illegally. Landry also said that snowmobiles would likely plunge through the lake ice, as it isnÕ t routinely thick in the bay where the boat launch is planned.

A local resident asked Stegemann that with all the predicted problems at Million Dollar Beach, why DEC officials felt they needed a boat launch there at all. Ò Lake George is a public lake, and DEC feels itÕ s their responsibility to provide boat access,Ó Stegemann replied. Keating suggested that the boat launch be located on the west side of the beach, with an access road branching off the planned roundabout. DEC Engineer Tom Miller replied that the east side of the swimming beach was chosenfor the launch because there was more room there. Some residents questioned whether traffic — particularly vehicles pulling boats on trailers, could safely navigate down the new two-way road with its narrowed 11-feet-wide lanes. A local firefighter warned that the lanes needed to be wider for fire trucks to navigate. Thomas Baird of Barton & Loguidice engineering firm, who redesigned the roadway, said the narrow lanes would keep drivers from parking on the shoulders, and would tend to calm traffic. Charles Leonelli of Rose Point Lane asked if the town or any other agency had jurisdiction over the plans. Stegemann replied that the Adirondack Park Agency is in the process of determining whether they have jurisdiction. He added that DEC attorneys contend that the town has no jurisdiction over the project, but the town of Lake GeorgeÕ s attorney is challenging that assertion. Diamond Point resident Mike Segulic, objecting to ongoing pollution of Lake George, asked whether leaking sewage pipes under the parking lot would be repaired. DEC officials said they’d been developing plans for years to fix the pipes, and repairs were likely forthcoming. Stegemann predicted that another public session would be held on the latter phase of the project, which includes the relocation of the boat launch. The roadway upgrades should be complete by mid-May next year, while the various parking lot upgrades and the boat launch would be ready for finished a year later, he said.

Great Escape employees help others on a day off By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com GLENS FALLS Ñ Dozens of Great Escape theme park employees took a day off Nov. 14 to renovate Glens Falls city Little League fields, improve ColeÕ s Woods trails and beautify the exterior of the Glens Falls YMCA. About 60 employees of the theme park that helped make Lake George famous Ñ and its related enterprise, Great Escape Lodge, participated in the day-long effort. The project was the 5th annual event of its kind for the Great Escape, which has accomplished work in the past for the Tri-County United Way, the Slate Valley Museum and Habitat for Humanity. Tasks included removing fencing and backstops and and other renovations to the Little League fields, removal of brush and debris from around the area to improve aesthetics and accessibility, landscaping the front of the YMCA building, and adding trail markers and clearing the snowshoe trail in ColeÕ s Woods. Among those cutting down and removing brush between the city Recreational Center and ColeÕ s Woods was Trent Sano of Lake George, Director of Administration for Great Escape. The brush-clearing effort was to create more overflow parking, he said. Ò ItÕ s outstanding to have 60 people come in and do this kind of work Ñ itÕ s invaluable to the YMCA.Ó Sano ought to know Ñ a former position of his was Youth & Family Director of the YMCA. Great Escape Facility Manager Gary Baker was also at work at the YMCA. Ò This is great to be part of this effort,Ó he said. Ò Great Escape believes in family and community Ñ theyÕ ve kept me employed for 17 years. A day like this to give back to the city and the kids is wonderful.Ó Andrew Meader of Lake George was among those theme park employees renovating the Little League fields. He serves as Director of Corporate Alliances for the Great Escape. Ò ItÕ s amazing for all the Great Escape employees to have a day off like this, and be put into the community where we can really make a difference,Ó he said. Ò We rely of the community so much, so itÕ s great to pay back.Ó
ABOVE: More than sixty Six Flags-Great Escape employees worked on a comprehensive service project Nov. 14 to make various improvements to recreational facilities in Glens Falls. The Great Escape sponsored the work through their Project 6 program which in the past has included repair work at the Slate Valley Museum in Granville and rehabilitating a home for a Lake George couple — through Habitat for Humanity — that was facing financial stress due to medical issues. RIGHT: Spreading mulch as part of a community service project on a day off from work Nov. 14 are Great Escape theme park employees (left to right): Casie Stewart, Leroy Riojas, and Steve Grant.

Viewpoint
Buy local all year round Reflections from the past O N
ext weekend, while many people will be headed off for the malls and big-box retailers, fighting the crowds as shop for holiday gifts, others will be taking a more stress-free approach: shopping at their local hometown stores. This next weekend brings us Small Business Saturday or Buy Local Day in several communities: Ticonderoga, Warrensburg, Plattsburgh, and Bolton Landing. Shoppers visiting the local independently-owned businesses are more likely to find unique gifts, unlike the mass-produced items in the big-box stores. In addition, they probably will be greeted with a warm smile by someone they know, who cares about their family, and participates in local community life. In Ticonderoga, two dozen businesses will be offering deep discounts. In Bolton Landing, shoppers will enjoy open houses with refreshments and pleasant socializing. In Warrensburg, businesses will be handing out raffle tickets for valuable prizes. In Plattsburgh, local enterprises will be offering a variety of these incentives. We applaud the local chambers of commerce in these four communities for adopting the Buy Local initiative for Saturday Nov. 30. The promotion offers a welcome alternative to the madness of Black Friday Ñ which is oriented to big-box stores, and Cyber Monday, which supports faceless e-commerce corporations. But such awareness of our local entrepreneurs shouldnÕ t be limited to one day Ñ we should be practicing it all year long. While Denton Publications and other community newspaper publishers have been promoting the concept for decades, the idea of shopping locally has recently been gaining traction due to the growth of the sustainable living movement. Buying locally offers a lot of practical advantages: saving plenty on the costs involved in driving to the suburban big-box stores and malls, as well as avoiding the mayhem and jammed parking lots. Small businesses also offer more comprehensive, personalized service Ñ because the proprietors understand your needs Ñ which can mean greater satisfaction derived from purchases. But there are other more crucial and far-reaching benefits. Shopping locally supports local job creation. Not only are small businesses the largest employer nationally, they provide the most jobs to local citizens. Considered the backbone of the U.S. economy, small businesses have been responsible for creating about two-thirds of all new jobs in the U.S. over the past 20 years. Small businesses build strong local economies that are more likely to weather recessions. Studies show that each dollar spent at independent businesses returns three times more money to the local economy than cash spent at a chain store. Local enterprises are also the customers of local accountants, wholesalers, attorneys, farmers, while big corporations tend to bypass such local entrepreneurs. ItÕ s documented that since local businesses generate more tax revenue per sales dollar, they build the local tax base, supporting various vital services. ItÕ s also a fact that local businesses provide an average of 3.5 times more financial support to local non-profit groups and charities than national corporate stores. Studies also indicate that local enterprises spend far more money locally, boosting local prosperity. Buying local minimizes impact on the environment, as it curbs sprawl and pollution while tending to encourage preservation of our communitiesÕ architectural heritage. Spending money with local entrepreneurs is an investment in keeping our communities unique, with their own distinctive character and charm. Small enterprises are owned by local citizens who have a long-term stake in the community and itÕ s future. Most of all, however, spending money with local hometown businesses supports the kind of vibrant, cohesive community that we want to live in, with strong social interconnections, while it curbs materialism. Simply stated, buying local promotes a more fulfilling way of life. Ñ

Turning Back the Pages By Jean Hadden
•100 years ago - Nov., 1913• Troubles abound for Belden
Whitman Gifford of Hague, accused of stealing a horse from Charles BeldenÕ s farm in Horicon, while the latter was held in the Warren County Jail on a charge of bigamy, and who threatened to shoot Constable Russell when the latter went to arrest him, has taken to the woods and is now (Nov. 27, 1913) being pursued by a posse headed by Constable Ross and Justice of the Peace Melvin Barton. There may be some shooting if the man is cornered as he has the reputation of being a desperate character. (Note: Charles BeldenÕ s illegal marital troubles were documented in this column in the Nov. 16 Adirondack Journal.)
Trolley car collides with train
There was a great smashing of glass and woodwork when four persons were injured in an accident on the Hudson Valley Railway in Glens Falls on the evening of Nov. 26, 1913. A trolley car bound for Hudson Falls and Fort Edward, heavily loaded with passengers, collided with a Delaware and Hudson freight car at the railway crossing on lower Warren St. and the occupants were considerably shaken up and badly frightened. No one was killed but many of the female passengers became hysterical and great confusion reigned for a time. The four people who were injured were taken by automobile to Glens Falls Hospital and considerable excitement was caused by the rapid dash of the frantically honking machine through the business section of the city.
World news
Two U.S. aviators were killed. - Lieutenant Eric L. Ellington and Hugh M. Kelley of the Army Aviation Corps of the U.S. Army were killed in a fall from an aeroplane over North Island in San Diego Bay. The men were maneuvering 80 feet above the earth when something went wrong with the machine which turned turtle. Both men were from North Carolina. There were five fatalities at the Army Aviation
School this year. In other news: With many prominent canal officials onboard, the small steamer Louise passed entirely across the isthmus of Panama through the Panama Canal, the first boat ever to make the journey. (Note: The Panama Canal was the waterway, built at great cost and loss of life, which connected the Atlantic ocean, by way of the Caribbean Sea, to the Pacific ocean. It was built by U.S. military engineers between 1904 and 1914 and the land flanking the canal was turned over to Panama in 1979. In 2000, operation of the canal was passed over to the Republic of Panama.)
Exciting events at the Empire Theatre
Prof. de-Leon will present Dorva, the world famous coloratura soprano in a brilliant program of operatic gems at the Empire Theatre on South St., Glens Falls, both matinee and evening on Thursday, Nov. 27, 1913. The most birdlike voice ever heard - singing F above high C in a manner beyond description. Another great show at the Empire will be on Nov. 28 and 29 with PasquallÕ s Ò Last Days of Pompeii.Ó It is a story of absorbing interest which can be easily followed in the splendid pictures to be shown.
Pretty wedding conducted
Miss Florence E. Baker, daughter of Deputy Sheriff Charles Baker, of Baker Mills, was married to Obed Tarin the morning of Nov. 26, 1913 by the Rev. Father Ward at the Catholic rectory in North Creek. The bride was tastefully attired in a tailored gown of blue whipcord and a blue plush hat with an ostrich plume of the same color. She was attended by her cousin, Miss Katherine B. Maloy. Edgar Baker, brother of the bride, acted as best man. Following the ceremony a wedding luncheon was served at the home of the bride. The couple will reside in North Creek.
Tying the knot
Ephraim Palmer and Miss Elizabeth Balch, both of Warrensburgh, were married by the Rev. Richard Abbott on Saturday morning, Nov. 22, 1913 at the Presbyterian manse. The newlyweds

Preventing holiday-related illnesses
The Thanksgiving holiday is just around the corner and here are a few tips to keep your family safe. The USDA has a toll-free Meat & Poultry Hotline which will be staffed with food safety specialists on Thanksgiving Day from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. to answer callersÕ turkey questions. The number is (888) 674-6854 or you may email them at mphotline.fsis@usda.gov. During the holidays, people are busy and can sometimes forget that unsafe handling and cooking can lead to food-borne illness. For food safety questions year round, people may talk with a food safety specialist, in English or Spanish, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays. It is also recommended that you plan ahead to ease the countdown tension for your Thanksgiving meal. A favorite recipe at our home for Thanksgiving dinner is Rice and Almond Stuffing. You will need 1/2 cup slivered almonds, 3 tablespoons butter, 1 medium tart red apple Ñ cored and diced, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup chopped celery, 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper, 2 cups cooked brown rice, plus 1 cup wild riceÐ cooked in 6 cups chicken or vegetable broth. Start out by cooking your rice mixture and set aside; cook almonds in butter in large skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown. Add apple, onion, celery, poultry seasoning, thyme and pepper; continue to cook until vegetables are tender crisp. Stir in rice; cook until thoroughly heated. You can stuff the bird with this concoction or serve it as a covered side-dish baked at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Over the fence
ItÕ s almost that time of year again, when some residents go inside and donÕ t return until spring. This dilemma can only be characterized as Thurman hibernation, if you will. Please remember to drop in on your neighbors to see if they are lonely or need anything. Feeling uneasy about those high home heating expenses coming up in a matter of weeks? There will be a HEAP clinic offered from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. Monday, Nov. 25 at the Thurman Town Hall by the Warren County Office for the Aging. Bring documents, such as identification and income with you to expedite the application. For more information, contact the Office for the Aging at 761-6347.
are at present boarding with Warren Wood. Edward L. Frost of Thurman and Miss Helen M. Pasco of Warrensburgh were married by the Rev. C.S. Agan, Nov. 27, 1913 at the Methodist Episcopal parsonage in Warrensburgh.
Librarian gives lecture
Miss Mary S. Crandall, librarian of the Richards Free Library of Warrensburgh, read a paper before the library section of the state TeacherÕ s Association in Syracuse entitled, Ò What can be done by a small library in a small town.Ó (Note: Mary Crandall and Margaret McGann were the original librarians of the Richards Free Public Library which opened Aug. 13, 1901. The library had been their dream come true and was a gift to the town by sisters Clara and Mary Richards. How proud they would be if they could see the wonderful library expansion project recently completed. If it wasnÕ t for these ladies and future librarian Jennie Daniels who rescued copies of the Warrensburgh News back to 1878, this newspaper column would not be able to exist today, 112 years after the library opened to the public. Present librarian Sarah Farrar has carried the torch to the present day.)
Stalking their prey
A large buck deer was wounded Nov. 13, 1913 by James Jones at the Jones brotherÕ s camp in Chestertown. The deer was followed by Ad Kingsley, James and Jordan Jones until two days later, when it was finally shot by Jordan after the deer had leaped from a 50 foot rock ledge into a brook.
Reward posted for retrieving deserter
The adjutant general of the U.S. Army has sent a request to the authorities in this vicinity to be on the lookout for Anthony King, 32, a private who deserted from Co. A, Signal Corps, at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, Nov. 4, 1913 and who prior to his enlistment on April 8, 1912 resided in Warrensburgh. A sum of $50 will be paid for his delivery to at any army post.

After count of paper ballots Wood retains edge over Haskell By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com THURMAN Ñ Town Supervisor Evelyn WoodÕ s comeback victory to win re-election was confirmed Wednesday as a count of absentee and affidavit ballots barely narrowed Wood’s 23-vote advantage she held on Election DayÕ s machine-vote tally. The final but unofficial vote count released Monday, Nov. 18 at about noon by the Warren County Board of elections was 277 votes for Evelyn Wood, and 255 for John Haskell. Although she is a member of the Republican party, Wood had lost the G.O.P. ballot line by a greater than 2-1 margin to Haskell in the September primary election. Although she had earned a reputation as a hard worker and a successful manager of local government, she sparked strong opposition among members and friends of the Thurman emergency squad. At issue was Wood and the town board had voted not to spend tax dollars on supporting the squad because of its questionable finances and lack of advanced life support certification. She also voted to stop municipal trash pickup Ñ rare for a rural town Ñ based on looming costs for a replacing an aging garbage truck and the eveer-increasing transportation costs. She and the board also opposed the principle of landowners Ñ many who generated no trash Ñ subsidizing other citizensÕ trash pickup costs through their property taxes. Wood had been praised regionally for her round-the-clock work in recovering from the devastating 2011 floods, straightened out long-standing problems with town finances. Also she gained praise and fame for launching a nationally renowned effort to connect Thurman citizens to the Internet via innovative Ò white spaceÓ wireless technology. She also brought a record amount of grant funding into town during her several years in office. But a substantial number of people opposed her re-election because of the changes she made. Some residents were resentful, despite the fact that the changes kept their taxes in check. But after being trounced in the Primary, citizens rallied to her support, and the result was a hard-fought campaign, resulting in a remarkable comeback victory. Democrats were important to her victory as well as those voting on the lines reserved for Conservative and Independence parties. Town Democratic party Chairman Andy Templeton said that he was pleased with the fact that 170 voters chose Wood on the Democratic ballot line, although there are only 158 registered Democrats in Thurman, compared with 409 or so for the Republicans. Ò IÕ m thrilled,Ó he said, noting this election cycle might help resurrect the local Democratic party, which has been all but dor-
mant in recent decades. Ò This is probably historic.Ó The turbulence in politics this year apparently isnÕ t lost on Wood. After the paper ballots were counted, she said that her next objective would be to create unity. Ò This has been a very polarizing election, and weÕ ll be working to bring the community back together again,Ó she said. Wood added that sheÕ s open to ideas that local residents have suggested this year, like restoring youth programs and encouraging the development of town-sponsored family activities. Ò IÕ ve heard a lot of input from citizens about what programs theyÕ d like to see in town Ñ WeÕ ll be evaluating the ideas to determine whatÕ s feasible and weÕ ll be moving forward from there,Ó she said. Ò ItÕ s a relief to get this election behind us and get back to work.Ó Wednesday’s count also provided a final unofficial tally for two Thurman Town Board seats.
The paper-ballot count tallied the write-in votes for Kathy Templeton, (an Adirondack Journal correspondent) at 105, nowhere near enough to topple either of the two candidates on the ballot, Daniel E. Smith and Michael Eddy, who received 347 and 299 respectively in the adjusted Nov. 13 count. Attending the session during which the paper ballots were tallied, Kathy Templeton said she was happy with the results. She had launched her write-in effort just several days before the election. She said that she was primarily pleased that Thurman citizens were taking their civic duty seriously. She said that with 529 voters participating in the Nov. 5 election with only 600+ eligible in town, Thurman residents were making a point that was hard to ignore. Ò I was really happy with the local turnout,Ó she said. Ò It showed New York State that Thurman votes!Ó

Memories, photos of Dynamite Hill sought CHESTERTOWN Ñ Dynamite Hill is 50 years old, and recollections of the days when the ski slope was young are now being sought from people who grew up and enjoyed the venue as youngsters. The North Warren Chamber of Commerce is now planning a celebration of 50+ years of history of the Dynamite Hill Recreation Area to coincide with the annual Krazy Downhill Derby scheduled for Feb. 22. Any photos of skiers and skaters using the hill in the early years, and stories of what it was like to spend weekend hours there in the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s are of interest and will be shared during the celebration. The Chamber is compiling remembrances as well as creating a display of photos for everyone to enjoy that day. Developed primarily by the Chestertown Rotary Club, Dynamite Hill opened with a 300-feet-long tow rope powered by a gear box at the top of the hill. Skiers were challenged to make it to the bottom of the hill safely Ñ hoping to stop before they flew through the woods into the Chester Creek beyond the end of the ski run, old-timers have said. Turning on skis with early bindings was more of a challenge in those days, not to say anything about navigating the makeshift ski jumps that the teenagers constructed at the bottom of the first slope to add excitement to the ride, theyÕ ve said. A fire kept burning by volunteers in the ski hut helped to dry out gloves that were wet from gripping the icy tow rope Ñ and hot chocolate served up by the Rotary Club were appreciated by skiers taking a break. Night skiing provided additional excitement for everyone and attracted out-of-town guests who were drawn to the bigger slopes during the day. Those raised in Chestertown and surrounding communities are urged to dig out their photos, reconnect with their memories and email their recollections to: info@northwarren.com. In addition, a Dynamite Hill Facebook page has been set up for people to share stories.

At a recent meeting of the Warren County Board of Supervisors, SUNY Adirondack President Kristine Duffy explains an array of new programs that she and the college trustees would like to establish. The county officials approved the college submitting a grant application for up to $20 million to bankroll a new building to accommodate programs in nursing, science, engineering and technology.

cyber-security, entrepreneurship, as well as training for medical assistants. To achieve this initiative, Duffy said the collegeÕ s administration and trustees were looking at constructing a new 70,000-square foot building to accommodate not only the new programs theyÕ d like to launch, but existing programs in nursing, science and technology. Ò Expanded space allows for growth as well as better accommodating our existing programs,Ó she said, noting that SUNY Adirondack now has about 250 students enrolled in its nursing programs. She said the college was applying for a state SUNY 2020 grant that would provide up to $20 million to provide about two-thirds of the buildingÕ s construction cost. The county supervisors passed a resolution in support of the collegeÕ s grant application. Duffy estimated that the cost to launch the new array of programs would be about $200,000 annually, and these new educational offerings would attract students that are now going elsewhere for such targeted career preparation.
