Body heat, spicy chili: hot times at Bands ‘N Beans Fest

IN GLENS FALLS

Season ends for North Warren

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE Ñ Dozens of people gyrated to the throbbing beat of a rock band playing a few feet away onstage, while hundreds of others surrounded the dance floor, watching or socializing as they sampled chili and drank beer.

Condensed moisture ran down the fogged windows at Roaring Brook Ranch Resort, a result of the body heat of the crowd as well as steam from about two dozen huge pots of chili.

Such was the scene Sunday March 2 at the 23rd annual Bands NÕ Beans fest, a fundraiser for the Lake George Arts Project thatÕ s no less than legendary for welcoming spring to the North Country.

George Greene, President of Roaring Brook, stood in the hallway of his resort and glanced into the massive banquet room where most of the crowd was hanging out. People were four deep at the bar not far away. Ò What a crowd,Ó he said.

Thurman’s Jackwax Party has deep local roots

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com ATHOL Ñ Folks from near and far will get a hearty helping of savory homemade food as well as a taste of Adirondack community spirit next weekend as they attend the annual Thurman Old-Fashioned Jack Wax Party.

Also known as the Sugar Party, the event has been an annual fund-raiser in

this rural mountain town since people arrived in sleighs and by horseback.

Open to the public, the event is a blend of friendly conversation, hearty homecooked food and rollicking mountain music. ItÕ s to be held Saturday March 15 in the Thurman Town Hall. The meal begins at 4 p.m. and lasts until all are served.

Since the 1930s and perhaps decades before, townspeople in Thurman have held this event celebrating the end of winter, sharing a meal topped off with Jack

Wax. This age-old New England treat is made by ladling fragrant, boiled-down maple syrup Ñ fresh from local Ò sugar bushesÓ Ñ onto snow or ice shavings, which gives it a taffy-like consistency.

But the event is far more than sharing a savory meal together pot-luck style at long tables, swapping tales, listening to home-grown music, and greeting neighbors after a long winter.

Bill to add family court judge in Warren County advances ALBANY Ñ Due to legislation pending in Albany, Warren County may in the future see its family court cases be handled with greater timeliness Ñ and county supervisors may be forced to get serious about expanding the countyÕ s court facilities.

A bill that would create a second Family Court judgeship in Warren County passed the Senate Judiciary Committee Thursday Feb. 27.

The legislation is sponsored by Senator Betty Lit-

tle. Assemblyman Dan Stec is sponsoring companion legislation in the state Assembly.

Little observed this week that family courts are the busiest courts in the state, experiencing a 60 percent increase in court appearances over the last 20 years.

A commission headed by former Chief Judge Judith Kaye recommended in 2007 the creation of 39 new family court judgeships to address the growing problem of backlogged courtrooms.

At that time, legislation was introduced to increase the number of judgeships in a number of counties, and Warren County was among them. The proposed law lost momentum in 2008 after the onset of the stateÕ s economic crisis beginning and did not pass the state legislature. Ò Family court matters are, in my opinion, the most sensitive that come before our countyÕ s judges,Ó Sen. CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

After stellar Sectional run, Cougars look toward future losing three of its members, key players are returning for the 2014-15 season, including Colby May and Jacob Dunkley. Plus, the Cougar Junior Varsity Boys Basketball team is loaded with talent, Sapienza said, noting the younger squad lost only two games this season. Ò I have a feeling weÕ re going to be right here at the civic center next year,Ó he said. Ò WeÕ ll be back.Ó Responding to SapienzaÕ s prediction, Coach Whipple offered a comment. Ò Our players have experienced a taste of the big stage, and now they want more,Ó he said.

thom@denpubs.com GLENS FALLS Ñ The North Warren High School Basketball team emerged from the locker room Feb. 6 at the Glens Falls Civic Center, after playing a tough, fast and physical Section II semifinal game against Argyle, the 2013 Class D state championship team.

North Warren lost the game 57-41, ending a stellar season that took them the furthest in regional tournament competition since 2007.

Instead of appearing anguished or vanquished, the North Warren players expressed pride as they headed towards the civic center exits.

Four years ago, their team had endured a 1-17 season. Three years later, with most all the same players aboard, the squad was among the most successful in the region.

Senior Justice Parker, a Cougar forward, reflected on the evolution of his team through those years. He said that since 2010, every team member was committed to achieving success Ñ and they challenged each other and helped each other in acquiring skills and developing teamwork. Ò We had a mutual desire to achieve our goals,Ó Parker said. Ò Everyone on the team wanted to help each other get better.Ó He said the teamÕ s accomplishments were more substantial than they might seem, considering that the competition was more intense this year in the Adirondack League than in the prior three years.

“We made it to the Sectional semifinals because everyone on our team wants to win,Ó he said. Ò They have hearts like lions.Ó Cougar guard Nick Sapienza, a junior, added his thoughts about his teamÕ s 2013-14 season Ñ which inspired sports fans in northern Warren County.

Years ago, Sapienza was drafted onto the Varsity team as an eighth grader, so he too experienced the 1-17 season in 2010-11.

As of early February this year, he surpassed a career scoring record of 1,000 points. Known for his fast, sure moves and solid outside shooting, he has been a key player for the Cougars for four years. Recently, heÕ s been averaging 19 nearly 20 points per game. SapienzaÕ s specialty has been making game-changing shots at critical times Ñ scoring when the outcome hangs in the balance.

As he headed out of the civic center locker room Feb. 26, Sapienza reflected on the team’s remarkable evolution over the last four years. He said that he and his teammates have been committing long hours to basketball Ñ both in sanctioned practices and out of school Ñ to develop the skills and team chemistry they now possess.

After designated school practices, Sapienza and the other players would stick around and run plays and shoot baskets, he said. On weekends, they repeated drills and practiced plays on a basketball court at Word of Life Institute, he added. Ò We practiced hard all year Ñ we never let up,Ó he said. Ò Our

During their Feb. 26 Sectional tournament showdown against Argyle at the Glens Falls Civic Center, North Warren Athletic Director and coach Jeremy Whipple gives his players some advice on how to contain the offensive attack of the Scots, who are reigning state champions — and won the Section II crown this past weekend.

work paid off Ñ getting here to the civic center is a really good achievement.Ó Cougar Coach Jeremy Whipple praised his players for their effort and hard work all season, noting it was a privilege to coach a team that achieved so much despite the schoolÕ s small enrollment. Ò They really dedicate themselves to the sport,Ó he said, noting his players attend basketball camps, play on summer leagues and lift weights.

He added that WednesdayÕ s performance against reigning state-champion Argyle was impressive, in the face of the ScotsÕ hot shooting, savvy coaching and depth of talent.

“Several times, we were as close as five points,” Whipple said about the competitive game.

ArgyleÕ s secret weapon, Freshman Kobe Lufkin, had sunk three-point shots at critical times to shore up the ScotsÕ fragile lead against the tough, persistent Cougars. For the game, Lufkin scored six three-pointers, surpassing the record of his older brother Joey Lufkin who was the star of ArgyleÕ s 2013 state championship squad.

Whipple said he was proud of how his players responded to such tough competition, and never let up the pressure. Ò I was impressed the way we went to the basket tonight and never gave up,Ó he said.

Headed out of the civic center, Sapienza shared his thoughts about the CougarsÕ future. He said that although the team is

Under pressure from a defender, North Warren Senior Iain Underwood puts up a shot during a Section II semifinal tournament game against Argyle Feb. 26. The Cougars were defeated 57-41, ending a season that inspired sports fans in northern Warren County. After the game, several Cougars talked about their remarkable 2013-14 campaign, and set their sights on next year.

518, what’s your emergency?

E

mergency and fire services in the North County need a jumpstart. The pending flashover fueled by a sagging economy alongside a cluster of fast-moving accelerants Ñ an aging population, unfunded state mandates, tax caps, environmental regulations and an unrelenting brain drain Ñ has left local departments on life support and grasping for their defibrillator paddles.

Considering the region faces limited opportunities for expanding its tax base, there are no easy answers Ñ only a series of creative, common sense solutions.

Be efficient. Arizona made headlines last month with a state program launched in partnership with public and private agencies to put veterans to work. New York should follow their lead and customize their plan to fit local needs, particularly when it comes to ensuring that service members can apply their extensive military training to meet state-mandated firefighting and EMT requirements. Congress actually attempted to address this with the Veteran Emergency Medical Technician Support Act of 2013, but the bill flatlined in the Senate and remains DOA. Start Ô em young. Mandatory state training for EMTs has skyrocketed to approximately 170 hours in recent years, with firefighters seeing an increase to 130 from 80 just a generation ago.

This commitment makes it difficult to attract and retain young professionals, a serious problem as Baby Boomers continue to age out. As a stop-gap, why not offer high school and college students academic credits to ignite the flames of civic pride and spark what may lead to either a promising full-time career or lifelong contributions to the community.

Get involved. Welcome! WeÕ re glad our seasonal friends find our communities a desirable place for recreation and relaxation. How about helping us help you to protect your health, safety, homes and families, both during the offseason and prime time, by pitching in? Opportunities range from getting involved with your local fire department or EMT squad, helping local officials in crafting sustainable policies, volunteering whenever possible or by facilitating scholarships for local high school students who wish to enter into the emergency services and firefighting fields. We’re glad you’ve made the North Country your playground Ñ now help us pay for it.

Look outward. Local officials should be doing more to attract the bushy-tailed foreign nationals flocking to America for a better life. You can either get ahead of immigration or behind it and those choosing the former are seeing their

communities revitalized with fresh ideas and bustling economies. As Americans, we represent the best in nurturing the entrepreneurial spirit and recognizing the most promising attributes in our freedom-seeking friends around the world. These national values should never be overlooked and we need to continue to set a good global example by offering a series of cautious incentives to attract the best and brightest of the international community to our neighborhoods and lobby the federal government to put newcomers on the fast-track to citizenship by either engaging in civic volunteerism or statemandated emergency services and fire training: Welcome to America Ñ we believe in you and we welcome you with open arms. Now suit up, get to work and experience firsthand what made our country so great.

Pay your debt. Not to tarnish a noble profession by seeding its ranks with neÕ er-do-wells, but instead of giving prison inmates a college education and sending them off into a brutal domestic job market that will never hire them, anyway, instead facilitate firefighting and emergency service training programs so that when these folks are released, they have a real shot at erasing the shameful stigma of incarceration by allowing them to reintegrate back into society while contributing a skill thatÕ s actually useful for local communities.

Get to work. It seems inherently unfair that by some metrics, the long-term unemployed (or unemployable, depending on where you stand) have better standards of living than the working poor. (Just play with SNAP’s online benefit calculator if you donÕ t believe us.) If residents wish to remain on public assistance, then their handouts should be tied to public service, plain and simple. This isnÕ t the United States of Socialism Ñ itÕ s the land of pluck, elbow grease and opportunity. So suck it up and get back to work, comrade.

Three Strikes, YouÕ re In. Lastly, instead of punishing triple-slam DWI offenders by permanently revoking their licenses, work the state-mandated EMT or firefighter training into their already-required extensive treatment and rehabilitation programs and give them a useful, marketable skill instead of condemning them to a life of booze-scented public dependency. What they choose to do with that training would, of course, be up to them. But at the very least, itÕ d act as a sorely-needed boost to a region that needs all hands on deck at such a crucial time in its fragile and uncertain development. Ñ

Turning Back the Pages

By Jean Hadden

•100 years ago — March 1914• Trouble comes in pairs

Wellington S. Morse, of New York City, who last fall was tried before Judge Raley and a jury in Warren County Court at Lake George on a charge of second-degree manslaughter and was acquitted, figured in another shooting case, March 11, 1914 in the big city.

MorseÕ s mother, Mrs. Hattie M. Morse, was attacked in her home by John H. Price, 35, a traveling salesman for Armour & Co. meat packers, who shot and dangerously wounded her and then shot and killed himself. He was in love with the woman and she had spurned his advances. She was shot in her own apartment on the third floor of the apartment building where Price formerly had lived. He then descended one flight of stairs to his current apartment and there ended his life with a bullet in his right temple. Wellington Morse had grappled with Price but was unable to save his mother. She was dangerously wounded but is expected to recover.

Morse was tried at Lake George in November, 1913 on a charge of having caused the death of 14- year old Frank Spaulding of Silver Bay by shooting him in the leg with a charge from a shot gun, in a camp at Thirteenth Lake, Sept. 2, 1913 near North River, in the town of Johnsburgh. Spaulding bled to death in an automobile on the way to the Glens Falls Hospital.

Morse was confined in the county jail at Lake George until after the trial at which his mother was present and then he accompanied her to New York. He was defended at the trial by Attorney Edward M. Angell of Glens Falls. The jury was out only twelve minutes before returning with a verdict of Not Guilty.

(Note: The story of the shooting death of Frank Spaulding was told in this column in the Sept. 21 Adirondack Journal.)

Deadly mix of gas and flaming kerosene

Carrying a lighted lantern, William F. McGinley, proprietor of a general stone at Adirondack, entered the cellar of his building on the night of March 11, 1914 to look for a leak in the acetylene gas plant which lights his store and living rooms on the second floor.

The gas, which had been leaking into the cellar for some time, was ignited by the blaze of the lantern and there was an explosion, the full force of which struck the merchant, severely burning his head and face. His moustache, eyebrows and eyelashes were burned off, as was all the hair on the right side of his head.

His eyes were filled with the flying carbide and severely injured.

Partially stunned by the shock and unable to see because of the injury to his eyes, it was with great difficulty that he groped his way upstairs and attracted the attention of some young men coasting near the store. They assisted him to his rooms and Dr. George Bibby of Pottersville was summoned. McGinleyÕ s injuries were not too serious and are not expected to be permanent.

He is expected to recover his sight. Dr. M.C. McGinley and Miss Lena McGinley, a trained nurse, will care for their injured brother.

Activities and events in the hills

Warrensburg-Thurman Girl Scout Troop 3426 will be having a cookie sale from 9 a.m. until noon Saturday, March 15 at Warrensburg StewartÕ s Shop.

If you missed The Gleaning food distribution this month, the Thurman food pantry is open Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. Be sure to bring your reusable cloth bags or plastic shopping bags to bring your goods home.

The Sugar Loaf Seniors group will be going back to their regular monthly meeting schedule at the Thurman Town Hall.

These regular meetings will start March 19 at 5:30 p.m. Membership is still only $10 per year. For details, call Norma Galusha at 623-9425.

With fuel prices rising, learning how to make a warm quilt to keep your family warm is a skill unlike any other. The Thurman Quilting Group holds their meetings at the Thurman Town hall every Monday. This week’s session occurs March 10 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Light refreshments and tea or coffee are offered. For details, contact Myra at 623-2633.

The county-sponsored senior bus service to Glens Falls makes its trips twice a month on the second and fourth Friday. The next scheduled trip will occur March 14. This is a wonderful opportunity for home-bound seniors to get out of the house, visit with other Thurmanites and get a little shopping done. The service is not only for doctorsÕ visits, though. The bus service will take you just about anywhere in the Glens Falls region for hair appointments, grabbing a bite to eat or just to enjoy the ride and have a chance to socialize. To arrange pickup, contact Laura by March 12 with directions to your home and she will make sure you are picked up. You can reach Laura at 623-9281.

Facts about sugaring season

Some interesting facts about sugaring season are that it takes 50 gallons of sap to make one gallon of maple syrup.

Mother Nature dictates when sugaring season begins. Early in the spring, when maple trees are still dormant, temperatures rise above freezing during the day but drop back below freezing at night. This fluctuation in air temperature is vital to the flow of sap in sugar maple trees.

The science of making syrup has changed significantly in recent years. Long lines of plastic tubing linking trees to sugar houses have replaced hanging metal buckets and reverse osmosis machines speed up the process of condensing the sap, reducing the time it takes to boil the sap into syrup.

During warm periods when temperatures rise above freezing. positive pressure develops in the tree. This pressure causes the sap to flow out of the tree through a wound or tap hole. During cooler periods when temperatures fall below freezing, negative pressure develops, sucking water into the tree through the roots.

This replenishes the sap in the tree, allowing it to flow again dur-

Mac Smith’s misfortune

Undersheriff Mac R. Smith, woke Saturday morning, March 14, 1914, from a night of sound and undisturbed sleep at his home in Lake George,and was horrified to find that he was totally blind in his left eye. Hoping the trouble was only temporary, Mr. Smith hastened to Glens Falls to consult Dr. Sherwood LeFeyre, an optician in that city and after an examination was given, little encouragement to hope for a restoration of sight in the orb that was affected was given.

On Monday night, March 16, 1914, Mr. Smith went to Albany to consult Dr. Cyrus S. Merrill, the eminent eye specialist who has a summer home in Warrensburgh. Dr. Merrill found that the trouble was caused by a small blood clot which had formed back of the eye and his prognosis was not favorable. He stated that after a time a small measure of sight might be restored but there was no hope that the eye would ever again be of much use. The other eye is not expected to be affected.

(Note: Mac Smith was one of the five children of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Jefferson Smith and the brother of former Warrensburgh Supervisor Frank W. Smith who served from 1925 to 1931.

Dr. Cyrus Merrill married Mary Griffing and their 1833 summer home at 3 Hudson St. was the Merrill Magee estate where their only daughter, Grace Merrill Lown Magee lived in the last years of her life. Grace, 94, died in 1979.)

Another Democrat honored

Former District Attorney John H. Cunningham, of Glens Falls, through the efforts of Hon. William M. Cameron and Thomas J. Dunn, the Democratic leaders of the city, has been landed in a position as Deputy Attorney General at a salary of $3,000 a year. Mr. Cunningham is well equipped for the position and his appointment will be a source of great satisfaction to his friends throughout the county, especially in Chestertown where he resided for many years.

He has for some time been engaged in prosecuting violations of the game laws for the state in Warren County and his work as a deputy attorney general will be along the same lines. He will begin his duties on March 9, 1914 and looks forward to his new job.

Memorial Gift bestowed

Philip E. Rice and mother, of Warrensburg, have sent $30 to the pastor of the Presbyterian Church, the Rev. Fred A. Gates, for a memorial window for the late John T. Rice, who was an elder of the church at the time of his death. (Note: Philip E. Rice, the proprietor of the Brown Swan Club, at Schroon Lake, was the son-inlaw of Lewis Thomson, owner and builder in 1906 of the present day Cornerstone Victorian Bed and Breakfast, where Philip Rice lived with his wife, Pearl Thomson Rice. He died in 1948.)

History of the Jackwax Party

I have received some calls and been stopped in town by some folks who were curious how the tradition of the Maple Sugar Party began. This column has covered this story in the past Ñ and with this traditional fest just around the corner I thought it fitting to do it again.

Jackwax parties have been held in the North Country for ages and most likely originated with the Native Americans.

In a Thurman diary dating back to 1930s, the writer tells of a Jackwax party held at Athol Methodist Church, which once stood between town hall and the Harris House. It raised funds for the church back then, but one year the call went out to raise money with a Jackwax party to help the family of a young local boy stricken by leukemia. The next year, the church had closed and the young boyÕ s life had been lost. Organizers decided to carry on the tradition of hosting the meal as a fundraiser to help those with this disease, and that year - and every year since, the dinner has raised money for the American Cancer Society. 2014 is the 55th year that the dinner has been held for this purpose.

Jackwax Party From page 1

ItÕ s not only a communal tribute to upcoming spring, but itÕ s also a matter of sharing and caring for others in need. This annual community party represents reaching out to others by raising money for the American Cancer Society both for research and to help families in the area.

This has been the partyÕ s main purpose for 55 years, although some local old-timers remember attending Thurman Jack Wax parties in the 1930s Ñ and others tell of the celebrations going back to the late 1800s.

Annually over the last half-century, the event has drawn a large number of people from neighboring counties Ñ and even nearby states Ñ to experience the age-old North Country rite.

Hoddy Ovitt and the Warren County Ramblers will be providing the musical entertainment. The requested donation is $10 adults, $5 for children ages 6 through 11, and free for those 5 and under.

This yearÕ s party will feature a few extra activities for children, including face painting by local artist Sher Millis and Girl Scout Troop 3426 conducting games and other pastimes.

Little said in a prepared statement. Ò The cases are often complicated and emotional situations Ñ and finding a resolution in a timely manner is obviously important. This legislation would help the Warren County judicial system operate more effectively to the benefit of everyone, especially children who are most affected by delays.Ó The number of family court cases has multiplied over the last several decades, and the laws governing the cases have increased in number, prompting legal issues to become more complex, authorities have noted. Such developments have prompted more court appearances and a greater workload for judges.

Little said that Gov. Andrew CuomoÕ s proposed 2014-15 state budget includes a $5 million supplemental appropriation for 20 new Family Court judgeships, reflecting Cuomo’s recognition of the pressing need.

The addition of an additional judge, however, will put more pressure on Warren County leaders to provide expanded facilities, an issue which has been under consideration for more than a decade.

Girl Scouting: buiding character, serving others

Troop 3426 Girl Scouts of Warrensburg join their younger counterparts of Troop 3207 for a “Bridging Over” ceremony held Feb. 13 at Richards Library. The ceremony marks a step forward in scouting after the girls achieve a set of requirements.

In Bolton Landing, Girl Scouting has outstanding participation Ñ the local troops routinely enroll every single local girl in particular grades at Bolton Central School Ñ introducing them to the fun and adventure of scouting.

Such a commitment translates to a vibrant, caring spirit of

Scouting a strong tradition in Bolton

helping others, local community leaders have noted.

BoltonÕ s Troop 3131, for instance, has eight members, representing virtually most all the girls in Bolton CentralÕ s eighth grade. These girls enrolled as Kindergartners and have continued scouting throughout their elementary-school years and into junior high together.

And their interest in scouting is not just about having fun together. All through these formative years, theyÕ ve been dedicated to community service, troop leader Mariann Huck said this week.

Each year, the girls of Troop 3131 change American flags on veteransÕ graves in the Bolton Cemetery on Memorial Day, but this last year, weather prevented it. As a substitute activity to engender patriotism, the girls Ñ along with local American Legion members — held a flag-burning ceremony. Plans are in place, however, to place new flags on graves this next Memorial Day. Last fall, the girls volunteered for the annual community Election Day Dinner held at the Emmanuel United Methodist Church. The scouts helped prepare for the meal, waiting on tables and cleaning up afterwards.

The girls also helped out with providing an arts and crafts session for children in conjunction with BoltonÕ s holiday festival, as well as singing at the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony.

They also helped mentor area children at a visit by Santa at the Bolton Firehouse, then went caroling around town afterwards Ñ visiting local folks, primarily those homebound.

In October, the scouts of

WARREN COUNTY Ñ Girl Scouts in the region are engaged in a wide variety of activities that build confidence, character and leadership, while contributing to their communities and making the world a better place.

Girl Scouting is now enduring the challenges presented by ongoing consolidation and regionalization of its administration, so in response, it has been the focus of scout leaders in northern Warren County to step forward and strengthen their relationship with their hometowns Ñ as they help recruit new troop members and scout leaders.

Troop 3131 volunteered at Up Yonda Farm for the educational facilityÕ s Haunted Trails attraction Ñ for the 3rd consecutive year.

Recently, the scouts spent most of a day snow-tubing at West Mountain, an exhilarating experience followed by a pizza dinner. Ò The girls had a such a great time,Ó Huck said.

The members of Troop 3131 have also completed solicitation for Girl Scout cookies, as well as their Ò Be a ReaderÓ campaign, through which they encourage reading by marketing magazine subscriptions.

One aspect of Troop 3131 cookie sales undoubtedly brings some cheer to hearts of those who otherwise might be bypassed.

A good number of people who bought cookies didnÕ t do so for their own consumption, but for the goodies to be sent overseas to U.S. soldiers on duty.

Several dozen cookies will be sent out in a few weeks by Troop 3131 to these soldiers, showing them that people back home are thinking about them and appreciate their vigilance in defending freedom.

Another activity the girls have undertaken for years has been cleaning up litter and trash along Lake Shore Drive Ñ BoltonÕ s main street Ñ in observing Earth Day. This annual service project of theirs has received recognition from others, Huck said this week. Ò Merchants and local residents have told us how much they appreciate the Main Street cleanup Ñ how it really demonstrates how much the girls care for their hometown community,Ó she said.

The scouts of Troop 3131 also know how to just simply have fun.

Over the next few weeks, theyÕ ll be deciding their next destination for a getaway this summer Ñ either in Old Forge or Lake Placid Ñ at Enchanted Forest Water Safari, or at the Olympic facilities and Mirror Lake, respectively.

The troop has plans to reach out to others even more this year, delving into activities theyÕ ve enjoyed in prior years, including visits to nursing homes and preparing Christmas baskets to bring holiday cheer to local needy families.

In 2012, the girls held a pajama party with patients at Westmount nursing home, and fixed up a basket of food for a local family at Thanksgiving. Ò These girls are all about helping out the community they love,Ó Huck said. Ò They really enjoy bringing happiness into othersÕ lives.Ó Huck continued that sheÕ s really proud of the Troop 3131 members and their academic achievements, their participation in extracurricular activities including sports and the arts, and their other involvements that demonstrate their commitment to serving others. Ò The greater Bolton Landing community can be really proud of them,Ó she said.

Warrensburg’s Girl Scouts are active

In Warrensburg, Troop 3426 is involved in an array of activities, including a variety of community service efforts, as well as gaining new life-skills, troop leader Patricia Miller said this week.

The girls have collected food for the local food pantry to help families who are experiencing financially stressful circumstances. They helped boost town pride by decorating the town Christmas tree.

Additionally, they helped tend the townÕ s community garden, from which healthy fresh produce is donated to the local food pantry for people in need.

Also the girls participated in the beloved traditional fest, Christmas in Warrensburg, by helping conduct the tree-lighting ceremony and holding a bake sale, Miller said this week.

Also, this next week the scouts will be helping out at ThurmanÕ s beloved annual Jackwax Party, at which they will be hosting activities for children, as well as assisting with chores. Ò WeÕ re trying to bring back the small-town community feel, participating in the older traditions,Ó she said.

The girls of Troop 3426 have also taken some interesting trips in 2013, which incorporated educational aspects with the excitement that accompanies visiting new places.

The scouts visited Boston Ñ touring the historic Faneuil Hall and shopping at the adjoining marketplace. In this trip they also experienced the aquatic wonders of the New England Aquarium.

Back at home, theyÕ ve been working on increasing their camping and self-reliance skills as well as pursuing more sedate activities, including like learning how to knit.

The members of Troop 3426 mentored 10 younger Girl Scouts of local Troop 3207 as they held their Ò BridgingÓ ceremony Feb. 15 in Richards LibraryÕ s new community room. By meeting the requirements of their organization, the girls passed a milestone

in their scouting career. After the ceremony. the members of Troop 3426 socialized with the younger girls, celebrating their step forward in scouting by enjoying Ò Pajama DayÓ at the library, watching a movie among other activities.

This next week, Troop 3426 will be conducting a cookie sale to raise money for their activities. The sale is to be held from 9 a.m. until noon Saturday March 15 at the Warrensburg StewartÕ s Shop.

Later this year, theyÕ ll doubtlessly be joining their counterparts from other communities in the region for camping and social events.

The members of Girl Scout Troop 3426 are already well-versed in camping skills, particularly handling adverse situations. It was only a year and a half ago that at a mass Girl Scout campout that they experienced three days of bone-chiling rain, cold weather and stiff winds. In this experience, gale-force wind and rain blew their tents over.

Miller said she and other Girl Scout leaders in the region were committed to strengthening the organization in town, so more children can experience the benefits while learning vital life lessons. Ò We are committed to building up membership numbers Ñ recruiting new scouts and leaders,Ó she said.

Already, there are several new troops in Warrensburg Elementary School, accommodating children from Kindergarten through 4th grade.

Traditionally, the Scouts in Warrensburg CentralÕ s upper elementary and junior high levels have been quite active. Over recent decades, theyÕ ve spent time with elderly in nursing homes, created valentines for soldiers and veterans Ñ and collected toys and clothes to brighten holidays for local families.

Lake George scouts enjoy varied pursuits

The Girl Scouts in neighboring Lake George have traditionally enjoyed a wide range of both fun and character-building experiences.

Trips to national attractions, participation in campouts and social gatherings have in recent years been balanced by a wide variety of community service activities as well as educational experiences.

A year and a half ago, the scouts of Troop 3592 in Lake George focused on spreading messages about teens and pre-teens developing personal responsibility toward others. One remarkable achievement was their scripting and production of a YouTube video which conveyed a powerful anti-bullying message to their peers.

Girl Scouting is evolving and now offering a myriad of new opportunities, regional scouting official Erin Trombley said this week. Ò Girl Scouting is fun, makes a difference in the community and gives girls leadership skills that help them be successful in life,Ó she said.

We at Denton Publications offer our congratulations to the Girl Scouts and scout leaders of the region who dedicate their time and talents toward improving the lives of others and fostering a greater sense of community!

North Warren’s JV Girls Basketball Team sets school record

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com

50692

CHESTERTOWN Ñ The accomplishments of the 2013-14 North Warren Junior Varsity Girls Basketball team has earned the players a prominent berth in school history.

This is the first girl’s sports team in the history of North Warren High School to go undefeated. The Cougar JV basketball team finished off their season last week with a 17-0 record.

The team outscored their opponents by an average of 20 points, dominating the Adirondack League this year.

No Junior Varsity nor Varsity girls team in any sport at North Warren has ever accomplished an undefeated season since the school was consolidated in 1974 with Brant Lake and Pottersville schools.

This squad has not only set a school record, but theyÕ ve blown past the prior school records with ease.

Earlier this season, the girls surpassed the 2011-12 Junior Varsity teamÕ s record for the most wins in a season Ñ 13 victories.

During this season, the 2013-14 JV squad was pitted against other Adirondack League teams with larger enrollment, but the playersÕ dedication to the game and commitment to skill development paid off, Coach Larry Warner said March 4. Ò They are just a wonderful, hardworking team,Ó Warner said, noting that most all the players play AAU ball offseason together, taking on teams from schools many times their size Ñ including squads from Saratoga and Albany. Ò TheyÕ ve gone up against incredibly tough competition, but they work hard, never quit, and have fun at it.Ó Warner said he first realized the team’s potential about a year ago when he took them to an AAU tournament and they won all four games they played. He said it was the first time in five years since he’s been coaching AAU that one of his team has accomplished that. Ò Those wins gave them a taste of what was coming this season, and it indicated to me weÕ d have something special going on this year,Ó he

said.

From that squad, every girl returned except for Morgan Yarosh, who was drafted into Varsity, Warner said. Ò With their experience, it gave me the opportunity to take their defense to higher level and fine-tune their press,” he said.

Warner continued that the girls are gamesmart. Ò This team can run six different half-court defenses effectively as well as four full-court presses,Ó he said, noting that referees have come up to him after games and said the young Cougar squad executes the best zone defense theyÕ ve ever seen for their age level. Ò They are so skilled and know the different defenses so well, I can switch defenses on the run,Ó he said. Ò ItÕ s one reason we could hold our opponents to average 20.7 points per game all season. From the top of the roster to the bottom, every player could effectively pressure each opponent.Ó On the other end of the court, the players were also impressive, Warner said, noting the team scored an average of 40 points per game. Ò Offensively, the team was so amazing Ñ nobody could put an effective press on them Ñ the girls could break it immediately,Ó he said.

He said that they starting five players performed so well that many times they could sit out much of the game allowing the bench to get plenty of experience. The result was that every girl played every game, and during the season each one scored points, grabbed rebounds and accomplished steals. The result is a squad with a remarkable depth of talent, he said.

Standout players of the group include Freshman Madasyn Bush who scored 216 rebounds and 216 points, and thatÕ s not a statistical error, Warner said. Ò Madasyn dominated the boards,Ó Warner said. Ò When we played the stronger teams the second time during the season, they knew what she could do and they focused on her, but she kicked the ball out to her teammates, and they got the job done, hitting jump shots.Ó Warner noted that Madasyn was awarded team MVP Monday night at a winter sports

The record-breaking 2013-14 North Warren Junior Varsity Girls Basketball team includes (front row): Sidney Gagnon, Alyssa Dewar, Hannah Kenney, Sarah Stewart, Cate Hill, Samantha Rogers, (back row): Brooke French, Cheyenne Dingman, Hunter Hitchcock, Toni Agard, Madasyn Bush and Coach Larry Warner. The team finished the season undefeated at 17-0, setting a school record for girls sports.

awards gala.

Working in tandem with Madasyn was Cougar point guard Cate Hill, who Warner said scored, rebounded and accomplished steals in all 17 games. Ò Cate is literally the perfect point guard,Ó he said. Ò SheÕ s key to our press-breaker.Ó Moreover, she can recognize changes in opponentsÕ defense as the game is progressing, and she calls substitute plays as appropriate Ñ which Warner said was very unusual at the junior varsity level.

Named Defensive Defensive Player of the Year was Sarah Ò RabbitÓ Stewart, who also tal-

lied an impressive record, Warner said. Ò All the players brought their Ô A game Ô to the floor every single time for 17 games, and thatÕ s tough to do,Ó he said. Ò It is great to see how thoroughly they learned the game and how well they put it together on the court.Ó Each one of the 11 players of the 2013-14 Junior Varsity Girls Basketball team contributed their part to the squadÕ s historic achievements, Warner said. Ò For a small D school, the team has achieved an amazing accomplishment,Ó he said. Ò IÕ m really proud of the girls.Ó
