WCS teachers have new contract

This Week ELIZABETHTOWN

IN WARRENSBURG

WCS super to retire

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Ending a contentious two-year negotiation process, the Warrensburg Central School District and the local teachers union agreed to a new work contract. Warrensburg Central’s teachers voted in favor of the contract late last week, and the local Board of Education approved it Monday, Jan. 14. The contract calls for a small increase in union members’ contributions toward health insurance premiums and curtails a former privilege of retiring teachers to reduce or eliminate their continuing health insurance expenses by applying accrued sick time towards their portion, as guaranteed in the former contract. The contract also calls for a slim annual increase in wages on top of the teachers’ annual “step” increase. Contribution rates for health insurance will increase to 12 percent for the 2012-13 and 2013-14 school

Warrensburg Central School District’s CEO to retire By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Warrensburg Central Superintendent of Schools Tim Lawson is retiring this November, and the local school board has begun a process of seeking out the school system’s next chief executive. The Warrensburg Central School Board of Education met Monday Jan. 14 with regional BOCES Superintendent James Dexter to discuss parameters for the search process. Lawson, 54, notified the board two months ago that he was retiring as of Nov.

29, 2013. He has served as the school district’s superintendent since mid-2003. Beforehand, he was the principal of Warrensburg Elementary for about eight years. He began his service with the Warrensburg district following a five tenure as principal in the Minerva School District. From 1983 to 1990, he served as a technology instructor there. This week, Lawson said he was retiring mid-year to allow a new superintendent of schools to be on board for the full process of preparing a budget for the 2014-15 school year. “Retiring in November provides the

school district with flexibility in the selection process and offers potential savings,” Lawson said. It also gives the school board sufficient time to pursue a thorough search for a new superintendent, he said. In September, Lawson’s wife Gail Lawson retired from her position as guidance counselor at Warrensburg Central. Since 1995, the two have resided in Thurman, where they’ve raised their children Katherine and Todd, both of whom attended Warrensburg Central and had notable academic and extra-curricular accomplishments. Tim Lawson said he hadn’t yet decided on

particular plans at this point for his retirement years. “I have no idea yet,” he said. “I have a lot of hobbies and aspirations, so I have no concerns about filling my spare time.” School district staffers, however, may be convincing him to continue one of his current activities — driving a school bus. “The people at the bus garage want me to keep driving — as a substitute,” he said. “I know I want to stay in the area — and continue to support the school district and community.”

During the event, town board member Linda Baker Marcella, who heads up the town Economic Development Committee, is to give an overview of the town’s development prospects. All are welcome to attend. The Chamber ’s offices are located across Main St. from Miller Art & Frame.

The National Christmas Tree

www.impressiveinteriors.hdspd.com

We’ve all seen the sign, but do you really know the story behind “The National Christmas Tree”? A movement for an Adirondack tree to be used as the national Christmas tree on the White House lawn was started in 1960. After a 2 year search, a 70 foot white spruce was discovered in Chester. The tree had been planted by George Robinson & his son, Buel, on Landon Hill. It was one in a row of trees planted to protect their house from wind and blizzards. The area around the tree was cleared of all vegetation as a fire prevention measure. The tree was groomed and heavy mulch was placed to preserve moisture and

to prevent the soil from freezing. One hundred fifty pounds of special tree food was applied. Throughout the winters of 1962 & 1963 a worker would inspect the tree after each snow fall and shake the limbs to prevent damage. During the summer, feeding and spraying continued as well. Special permits were obtained to move the oversized load down the Thruway and through New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maryland. At the annual Pageant of Peace in December 1964 the “Adirondack Christmas Tree” was adorned with 5,000 red and white GE bulbs. 42001

Blais: Grant for docks to boost tourism LAKE GEORGE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Village officials noted recently that a state grant of $177,000 to install new public docks on Beach Road will boost tourism while saving taxpayers some money. The Village of Lake George has received the grant from the state Waterfront Revitalization program to complete the installation of the docks, located along on Beach Road. The Villageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s six docks, popular with visitors, were heavily damaged during Hurricane Irene and had to be repaired for use during the 2012 summer season. Three of the 90-foot docks were replaced last season with the expenditure of Village funds. The old docks, constructed of wood, required considerable maintenance and repairs due to their vulnerable location at the southern end of the lake, village Mayor Robert Blais said. Each winter at least one would be damaged by the movement of ice and had to be repaired by Village employees, Blais said. The new docks are constructed of heavy aluminum posts, driven into the lake bot-

tom with composite decking and padded bumpers. Each dock is equipped with fire extinguisher stations donated by the Lake George Power Squadron. The structures also feature ornamental lighting. The docks are utilized annually by the popular Antique and Classic Boat Show, Performance Regatta Weekend and Lake George Area Boat Dealers as well as the general public. Hourly fees are charged to dock boats and annually account for approximately $20,000 in revenue to the village. Blais said the state grant was much appreciated, considering the condition of the economy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These funds will allow us to have firstclass facilities available for our boating public,â&#x20AC;? he said. The grant was the sixth straight given the Village for waterfront revitalization, the popular Lakefront Walkway, Canada Street improvements, the village Visitor Center and the public docks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are extremely grateful to the Department of State, Division of Coastal Resources, and the Governor Council on Economic Development for their overwhelming support of our community,â&#x20AC;? Blais said, noting the grants have totaled over $2.7 million.

The Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce is seeking nominations for Business/Citizen of the year. If you know a business or citizen that has done something to benefit the Town of Warrensburg in the past 12 months, you may call the Chamber office by phone at 623-2161, by e-mail at info@warrensburgchamber.com, or by postal mail at 3728 Main Street, Warrensburg, NY 12885. Please include the following information: the citizen/business name, address and phone number, the reason for the nomination, and the name, address and phone of the person making the nomination.

Nominations must be received by the Chamber no later than April 1, 2013.

Bolton’s Conover moves up in Warren Co. government By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com BOLTON LANDING — As of Jan. 1, town of Bolton Supervisor Ron Conover, now in the second year of his second term, has gained some clout in Warren County government. Conover has moved into the influential position of county Finance Committee Chairman, held in recent years by Stony Creek Supervisor Frank Thomas or Dan Stec of Queensbury, now the region’s state Assembly representative. With Stec taking office Jan. 1, he gave up the position as Chairman of the Warren County Board of Supervisors. Moving into that post was Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Geraghty, for years the county’s Budget Officer. Thomas moved from Finance Committee Chairman to Budget Officer, and Conover moved from heading up the Personnel Committee to the post of Finance Committee Chairman. Conover, 62, was first elected Bolton Supervisor in 2009. His career experience includes serving as

Director of Planning and Community Development of the city of Rome, NY. Also, Conover served for two terms in the Oneida County Legislature. Conover said he is pleased to take on this position as Finance Committee Chairman, considering the progress during the last four or five years in solving the county’s fiscal problems. Conover noted that in recent years, Geraghty and county Administrator Paul Dusek, backed up by county supervisors and department heads, have worked diligently in crafting realistic, conservative budgets. The process, Conover said, has included cutting waste and boosting efficiency in county operations, while rebuilding the county’s cash reserves to a safe level. Also, Dusek and Geraghty and the board members have recently tackled a new challenge — forecasting future county finances, which will help Conover is his new role, he said. “This has been the best multi-year budgeting process I’ve ever participated in — it’s very thorough,” Conover said. Kevin and Paul Dusek have elevated the process to a whole new level.”

Adirondack League boys basketball action hot at mid-season thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — Adirondack League Boys Basketball is providing area sports fans with high-scoring, aggressive play this year, as several hot-shooting players are propelling their teams into the state rankings. Pre-season, all the area coaches expected Argyle to have a remarkable year, and they have indeed, earning the top ranking for all D schools in the state. Argyle’s now 11-0 and ranked No. 1 in New York State Class D, behind Joey Lufkin’s routine 35+ point performances. Lufkin’s hot shooting from all over the court has provided an incredible challenge for all defenders. On Jan. 15, he scored 38 points against Salem. The prior week, Lufkin

scored 39 points against Bolton and 40 points versus Corinth. It’s not news when Lufkin personally tallies a higher score in a game than the entire opposing team’s roster. With the Eastern Division of the Adirondack League wrapped up by the Scots, the Western Division is being led at this point by Lake George, which is also undefeated at this point at 11-0. Ranked at No. 14 in New York State for Class C, they are led by Joel Wincowski, although they have a balanced lineup to back him up. Wincowski has routinely scored over 30 points. Last week, he scored 39 and 32 points in two matchups. Tuesday Jan. 15, the Warriors endured a real test in a matchup against North Warren, which has racked up an impressive series of victories this year. Although they’re one of the smallest schools around,

they’ve accumulated a long string of victories, earning a Number 11 ranking in New York State Class D as of this week. Lake George came out on top 69-52, after the Warriors outscored the Cougars by 10 points in the second quarter. North Warren’s Nick Sapienza led North Warren with 19 points in the effort. Lake George demonstrated their depth, as Wincowski’s 25 points were backed up with Greg Rosenthal's 20, and Connor McCoy with 12. Cougar fans are savoring the fact that last week, their team garnered Game of the Week honors from the Albany Times Union. The contest was a hard-fought showdown against Fort Edward that the Cougars won 59-50. In this matchup, Nick Sapienza scored 28 points, including four 3-point shots. Warrensburg, which has been providing its fans with some exciting basketball this season, pulled off a dramatic comeback victory Jan. 15 versus Corinth. Nick Perrone hit a basket at 12 seconds left that put the Burghers ahead — after they trailed 41-25 at the start of the fourth quarter. Showing a lot of heart and endurance, the Burghers outscored Corinth by 28-11 in a blistering scoring onslaught led by Nick Perrone, who scored all of his 11 points in the final stanza, including that late drive inside that gave Warrensburg the winning margin. Shea Irish was high scorer for the Burghers with 25 points. Warrensburg prevailed despite the Tomahawks’ Zack Shippe scoring 30 points.

‘Cabin Fever Party’ returns CHESTERTOWN — The North Country Hardship Fund’s second annual Cabin Fever Party is to be held on Saturday Jan. 26 at the Panther Mountain Inn of Chestertown. Beginning at 8 p.m., the event features a night of dancing, music and raffles —with the accompaniment of two live bands: Phil Camp and Willie Playmore. Entry donation is $5; while further donations are welcome. Those attending are required to be 21 years of age and older. This event is a fundraiser for the Hardship Fund, which raises money for people in the region who have undergone stressful or tragic circumstances.

ow that the reappointing and fist bumping is over, the Essex County Board of Supervisors should tend to some business that will actually save taxpayers money, and that is disbanding in favor of a board of legislators. By our estimate, the move would easily save county and town taxpayers at least half a million dollars annually. It would also provide residents with representation at the county who have no other interest other than county business. At the same time, the board would no longer be ruled by the weighted voting power of the “big three” — the towns of Ticonderoga, Moriah and North Elba; no legislator would have more voting power than any other. Imagine that. No squabbling over what’s in the best interest of your town, only what’s in the best interest of the people you represent and the county as a whole. What a novel concept. It seems to us that seven people sitting around a boardroom table with an equal vote and no outside agenda might just get more accomplished than 18 with a foot in more than one camp. Perhaps that is why more than 70 percent of the counties in New York have already gone the way of a board of legislators. A board of legislators is a more efficient, more accountable form of county government. All you have to do is compare Essex County with nearby Franklin County — which switched to a seven-member board of legislators in 1970 — to quickly see the tremendous cost savings, both on the town and county level. On the town level, the average annual salary for a part-time supervisor in Franklin County last year was $10,735. Only one supervisor, in Harrietstown, was offered health insurance. In Essex County, on the other hand, the average annual salary last year for a town supervisor was $28,666, while 13 of 18 were offered health insurance. That means Essex County’s 18 supervisors made $312,000 more in 2012 than Franklin County’s 19 part-time supervisors. Then, at the county level, the seven members of the Franklin County Board of Legisla-

tors made $108,000 last year compared to $319,137 in Essex County — a difference of $211,137. Combine those two numbers and Essex County’s 18 supervisors cost more than half a million dollars more last year than Franklin County’s 19 supervisors and seven legislators, with 12,000 fewer residents. Franklin County has 51,579 residents compared to Essex County’s 39,302. Add to that the cost of benefits both at the town and county for 18 people and the final tally no doubt pushes that number closer to $1 million annually. We’ve heard the arguments in favor of a board of supervisors. Some believe the constituent service is better with a full-time, accessible town supervisor and officials argue that the county interaction with towns is better under the current governing body. But as a taxpayer, you have to ask yourself: Is it worth a million dollars more out of pocket each year? Under a board of legislators, each town would still be represented locally by a parttime supervisor, as well as a town board. Residents would still be represented by a legislator at the county level. That’s better representation for less money, if you ask us. But don’t take our word for it — ask the 44 counties in New York that are already under a legislative form of government. Ask them if they miss the cost and bickering associated with a board of supervisors and a weighted vote. Making both the legislator and supervisor positions part-time also would open them to a different slate of candidates like people who might like to serve but are unable to do so in a full-time capacity. Local government truly began to go awry when the positions started to evolve into an occupation instead of an opportunity to serve your community. Our supervisors should act now and not allow their own job security to cloud their judgement over what is best for the county. Faced with an unprecedented financial mess heading into the year ahead, we can think of a number of ways one million dollars could benefit local towns and the county above paying the salaries of 18 politicians. —Denton Publications Editorial Board

Viewpoint

Are kids pointed in the right direction?

ne thing we never seem to be short of are studies in human behavior. Several recent studies point to some alarming concerns for the future of our country. Reading survey outcomes is a little like reading tea leaves. Each person can see what they want to see in the results, but these results have more than just a few experts reaching similar conclusions. The first is the American Freshman Survey, which has accumulated data for the past 47 years from 9 million young adults. The survey reports that college students are more likely than ever to call themselves gifted and driven to succeed, even though their test scores and time spent studying is decreasing. American students have increasingly given themselves "above average" ratings on several attributes but bragged most regarding their "drive to achieve." Almost four-fifths of survey responders say they're above average in this category. The other survey from Pew Research Center, asked respondents if they had ever received benefits from any of six major federal entitlement programs — Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, welfare, or unemployment benefits. Pew found that in addition to the 55 percent of adults who had received benefits, another 16 percent said that while they had not received benefits themselves, a member of their household had — meaning 71 percent of adults belong to a household that has benefited from at least one of these six major programs. If veterans’ benefits and federal college loans and grants are included, the share of households with at least one recipient rises to a surprising 86 percent. When you combine the results and begin looking at other factors one has to question if our youth will be prepared to be fully self sufficient when their time comes to take the reins and support a much larger and aging Boomer population. Not only do entitlements breed a certain dependency but look at the popular trends today like Facebook or Twitter where young people can fool themselves into thinking they have hundreds or thousands of “friends.” They can block anyone who

disagrees with them or pokes holes in their inflated self-esteem. They can choose to show the entire world only flatDan Alexander Thoughts from tering, sexy or Behind the Pressline funny photographs of themselves, speak their mind on short posts and publicly connect to big name movie stars, professional athletes, politicians and musicians to whom they are digitally connected. They can quickly Google search any facts as easily as asking their phone for the answer. It is a society where everyone is considered a champion, schools push underperforming students along, reality shows rule the airwaves, children who don’t fit the norm are drugged to conformity, energy drinks are the beverage of choice, video games are the great past-time and, as a nation, we keep borrowing money that this generation will someday be forced to payback. It’s great that government and the taxpayers can lend a hand when you need it, but what happens when government reaches the point they can no longer treat the masses as special and individuals are forced to fend for themselves? What happens when reality really becomes real and it’s no longer just a do-over video game or TV show? Will our youth be prepared for the challenges which surely lie ahead of them in the future? When you are young you’ve got nothing to compare to accept the events of the day. As you age you understand the difference between good times and tough times. As a nation we’ve been and continue to be on a good run economically, but at the rate we are currently spending one has to wonder how much longer the government can continue to borrow to support those who may not be up to the challenge of supporting themselves, let alone when they’ll need to support the Boomer generation.

100 Years Ago - January 1913 Savage blow ends man’s life Orville S. Pratt of 69 Maple St., Glens Falls, a former resident of Horicon, died Jan. 22, 1913 in Glens Falls Hospital of general peritonitis super induced by a rupture of the bladder, caused by a heavy blow or a fall, believed to have been received in a fight which he engaged in Saturday with an Italian in Whitehall. Pratt was taken to the hospital on Monday and the next morning his death occurred, prompting Coroner Birdsall and the police to begin an investigation. While waiting for the train at the depot, according to the story told by Pratt some hours before his death and corroborated by his brother-in-law Thomas Bennett of Whitehall, an Italian appeared and demanded a dollar he claimed Pratt owed him. Pratt, knowing that the demand was a ruse, engaged in a fight which he decidedly got the worst of, and when he finally arrived in Glens Falls his coat and vest were torn and his right eye was badly discolored. Thinking that he was intoxicated, his wife gave him little attention and on Saturday and Sunday he did indeed imbibe alcohol and Sunday night complained of severe pain in his stomach. A physician was summoned the next day after which he was taken to the hospital and on Tuesday he died. Besides his wife, he is survived by two sons, Richard Pratt, 19 and Burt Pratt, 15, and his mother, Mrs. George Carpenter of Horicon.

Explosion wreaks havoc The heating boiler in the Burt Shirt Company’s factory in Luzerne exploded on Saturday evening about 6 o’clock with devastating results. The front of the boiler was blown out and the smoke stack split its entire length. It is supposed that an explosion of coal gas was the cause as the boiler had just been fired by Frank St. John, who was struck on the leg by a piece of the door and somewhat injured. The factory is a branch of the Troy Shirt Factory.

Bad luck abounds in Chester Miss Hattie Nelson of Starbuckville, Chestertown, met with a painful accident recently. She had been subject to fits since childhood and after going into one, fell on the kitchen stove burning the flesh on one hand to a crisp and inflicting frightful burns about her face and neck. She remains unconscious and little hope is given for her recovery. Mrs. Eugene Murphy of Loon Lake, Chester is suffering from a sore throat, the results of swallowing a chicken bone which lodged in the passage and produced hard coughing spells. Four days later she went to the Glens Falls Hospital where x-ray photographs were taken but failed to locate the bone. She has received no relief.

Saintly Darrowsville mother dies Eva Brown, 26, wife of Anson Butler, died at her home in Darrowsville. She was married four years ago and leaves her husband, two little daughters and an infant son, only two days old at the time of her death. She is also survived by her aged mother, Mrs. Lucy Brown, four sisters and two brothers, Albert and Fred Brown. Early in life she accepted Christ as her personal Savior and when dying, assured her weeping relatives that she was going to her eternal home. The funeral was held Jan. 16, 1913 at the Wesleyan Methodist Church in Darrowsville which was largely attended by many sorrowing friends and relatives and many flowers were received. (Note: I have sat on the hill at the top of the Darrowsville Cemetery on many a summer ’s day and looked down at what is left of that wonderful old church with much nostalgia, thinking of all the weddings, funerals, and church socials that have taken place there over its many years. The remains of many the participants in these past dramas now lie in the cemetery resting hopefully in peace. †he church has a remarkable history, having been an anti-slavery outpost that nurtured a robust, active congregation of more than 200 members in the mid-1800s. The church’s congregation was renowned for its abolitionist activities — in-

Martin Luther King Day Martin Luther King Day, a federal holiday, celebrates the birthday of the nation’s primary spokesman for nonviolent action to achieve civil rights. King’s birthday is Jan. 15, but it’s celebrated on the third Monday of January under the Uniform Monday Holiday Act. While the campaign to establish a holiday in King’s honor began soon after his assassination, it was signed into law in 1983 after Congress passed legislation establishing the holiday by a heavy majority — and it was first observed in 1986. Several states — including New Hampshire and Arizona — resisted the holiday observance until 2000 when all 50 complied.

Activities & events in the hills The next meeting of the Sugar Loaf Seniors Club is to be held at 11 a.m. Saturday Jan. 19 in the Thurman Town Hall. the group is to meet on the third Saturday of February and March as well. Membership dues in the amount of $10 will be collected at this next meeting. The Thurman Quilting Group holds their meetings every Monday from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the town hall. So stop in and meet with these skilled members. For details, contact Myra at 623-2633. If you have children who are students at Warrensburg High School, make sure they are well-rested and have eaten

cluding offering welcoming shelter for African-Americans escaping slavery via the Underground Railroad, according to reports at the time. Although there was an effort in the late 1980s by Ralph Long and others to rehabilitate the Darrowsville Church, I have since seen the organ taken away, the bell tower collapse and today the roof lies flat on the ground. There are so many untold and forgotten stories there that are forever lost.)

Sickness and trouble abounds The unseasonable weather of this fall and winter is without a doubt the cause of a great deal of the sickness which now prevails throughout the Adirondacks. Business is also seriously affected by the lack of snow and in many areas there is much fear of an ice famine. A large number of people are seriously ill with colds and grippe. Harry Higgins of Igerna is ill with the grippe and tonsillitis and Julia Cross of Indian Lake also has been stricken. In Bakers Mills, Charles Frazier is seriously ill with stomach and throat trouble and Arthur Perry, the 10-year-old son of Rev. Watson Perry, is ill with rheumatism. Bethuel Comstock has been ill since Dec. 20, 1912 at his home. A prolonged season of old fashioned winter weather would now be most welcome. (Note: In 2013 we are experiencing an “old fashioned winter” and TV news tells us that this is the worst flu season in years. Author Brooks Atkinson once wrote that the “good old days” were a myth and no one ever thought that they were good at the time.)

Area to celebrate Centennial To celebrate the county’s 100th anniversary in 1913, there are many things being planned locally. There will be auto rides over the fine roads in the country, a boat parade on Lake George, a big gathering on the county fair grounds in Warrensburgh with addresses by former county residents and a banquet. Various other events are also being planned for the celebration in August 1913. The distinguished Hon. Charles Evans Hughes, Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, born in Glens Falls, will be invited as guest of honor. Hon. A.B. Colvin, of Glens Falls is

a nutritious breakfast every day next week, because the state Regents exams are to be held from Jan. 22 through 25. Mark your calendars for the PTSA Spaghetti Dinner and Auction scheduled for Feb. 9 at the Haskell Brothers VFW Hall on Main Street in Warrensburg. The communities’ support of the PTSA is greatly appreciated. To become a member of this vital, active group, simply drop into the Elementary School to pick up an application form. Adult membership is still just $7 and a student membership is only $4. Preparations are progressing for Thurman’s 54th annual Jack Wax Party to be held Saturday March 9. The event benefits the American Cancer Society. This event requires months of advance work to make it as successful as it has been for decades. Before I volunteered to organize the Jack Wax Party, I had no idea how much went into making sure this event was held without a hitch — well, I am the wiser now! Many area businesses have volunteered food items or gift cards to be used for the purchase of food. Also, many more local residents have volunteered not only to prepare homemade food items, but donated their priceless time to help make sure this is an event to remember. I just have to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for making this come together so well! If you would like to donate a dish or your time or both, please do not hesitate to call me, Kathy Templeton, at 6232967 or if email is more convenient, send me a message at: feidenk33@yahoo.com.

News from thurman Town Hall Applications for the STAR property tax exemption program are available at the Thurman Town Hall for those who meet the requirements. The deadline for completed applications is March 1. The state School Tax Relief (STAR) program provides homeowners with two types of partial exemptions from school property taxes. All are welcome to check with local and county authorities on details of the program.

News roundabout A Chicago doctor says that improper eating is the greatest cause of balding and there are many men in Warrensburgh who have been evidently been careless in their diet. Although a heavy downfall of rain accompanied by thunder and lightening visited this area Friday, Jan. 3, 1913, the skating rink on the village playground on Hudson St., Warrensburgh was finally able to be opened Jan. 13, 1913, for the first time this season and was occupied all the first afternoon and evening by a merry crowd of young people. In Bolton, fine skating is being enjoyed on Trout Lake. Anna Young lost a cow by slipping on the ice on the lake. Milo Cardle killed a pig for Jonathan Gates that weighed 525 pounds. Jerod Putney recently purchased the Russell Streeter place and John Ross of Diamond Point has purchased the farm of Jeptha Ross. A new organ has been placed in the Methodist Episcopal Church in Johnsburgh. In Bakers Mills, Dennis Waddell, while at work on his new house, fell from the staging and broke several of his ribs. Sarah Lackey stepped on a nail about three weeks ago which almost went through the skin on top of her foot. She has been suffering severe agony from the wound. Charles H. Wilcox is collecting taxes at Sanford Kenyon’s store in Thurman. William J. Baker of North Thurman has lost his bay mare. Carl Wheeler of West Bolton lost a fine colt. Mr. Stevens and his son, Elmer of Wevertown lost a valuable cow. A colt belonging to Rozelle Stevens, which had been missing since early autumn, was recently found dead in the woods a short distance from the barn. In Johnsburgh Corners, Earl Waddell, who was recently injured quite badly by being thrown from a load of hay to the frozen ground, is nearly well again. Thought for the day: The coal dealer does his business exclusively with people who have money to burn. Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 623-2210.

Have noticed that there hasn’t yet been a tribute luncheon held this year for the town highway crew? These men do such a good job clearing our roads and sanding them to assure we can drive safely. The luncheon has been a way to thank them for their hard work. Anyone interested in organizing a luncheon is asked to contact Evelyn at the Town Hall at 623-2967 to volunteer. The Thurman Town Hall will be closed Monday Jan. 21 in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr Day.

Over the fence Stock up on your birdseed as February is National Bird Feeder Month! This designation was launched in February 1994 to educate the public on the benefits of feeding wild birds and the pleasant hobby of observing them. A cautionary message goes out to all ice fishing anglers out there. After the rains last week, it is strongly advised that all you ice anglers know your surroundings and the source of water you are approaching before starting your day. By preparing properly and respecting the ice, tragedy can be prevented and you can enjoy a day of fishing. Those having a difficult time getting their trash to the Thurman transfer station are welcome to call Jim Desourdy, who will take bags of household refuse to the transfer station for $5 per week. For those residents who do not need weekly pickup, Desourdy he will provide his service intermittently as needed, only charging for the weeks he provides the service. Jim routinely picks up every Saturday starting at 9 a.m. — to reach him, call 623-4254.

Special days for Thurmanites Best wishes go out to Richard and Sally Wallace who are celebrating a wedding anniversary this week. Observing birthdays this week are Daniel Vanselous on Jan. 19; Will Hill on Jan. 20;Curtis Tyler and Keith Sonley, Jr. on Jan. 21; Bethany Herrmann and Glen Germain on Jan. 22; plus Grace Allen, Shanika Arroyo and Hunter Germain on Jan. 25.

Letter to the Editor Let Thurman folks decide on EMS coverage! To the Editor: As a founding member of Thurman Emergency Medical Services Inc., it has been distressful to watch the bickering between the town administration and the local EMS volunteers and townspeople. Town representatives have claimed repeatedly that residents prefer lower taxes over a viable paid emergency squad. Squad representatives express an oppositional view. One thing is clear: Thurman residents in increasing numbers are expressing anger at the perception that the Thurman Town Board is running amok, to the exclusion of resident input. One symbolic example is the neon sign that was totally unnecessary and cost taxpayers in excess of $7,000. I believe that it would make a strong statement if the town held a referendum about through which residents could express their preference for how their money is spent: to-

ward lower taxes, or a fully staffed EMS squad. The vote should be held after the town provides accurate cost estimates of per-capita EMS coverage: how much per $100,000 valuation of taxes would be saved if we “de-fund” EMS, and how much it would cost (employing the same scale) to maintain it. We are an intelligent population, fully capable of making a decision when adequate information is presented. It would also go far toward the Town Board regaining the trust of the populace they presumably serve. Irv West Thurman

Lake George signs from page 1 and Marisa Muratori of Lake George. Pointing to one figure, he noted that former Mayor Bob Caldwell, whom Blais defeated in 1971, routinely carried a Derringer pistol strapped to his ankle. He also pointed out Harry Cohan, proprietor of Cohan’s Sport Sop in Lake George, who was named state Boxing Commissioner. Blais also gestured to Wayde Earl, father of village Trustee John Earl, noting how the elder Earl had been a town board member, town supervisor, as well as the village Police Justice. Blais also reminisced about community pillar Howard McDonald, and how he regularly brought his dog Betsy to the village board meetings, hiding her under the table during municipal proceedings. “I’m so pleased I knew all these people personally,” Blais said. In other business, the village board: •set the 2013 village election for Tuesday March 19. Up for re-election are trustees John Root and Joe Mastrodomenico. “Our citizens will be very happy to see the old mechanical voting machines back in play,” Blais said, noting that state officials approved their use in village elections. •approved spending $731,000 for improvements to the village sewage pumping station in Shepard Park. The sum

He announced that the Charles Wood Foundation has pledged a $150,000 matching grant, and the village would be seeking corporate sponsors as well as seeking individual donations from the public to raise the matching $150,000. Blais said that if a corporate sponsor sought to have the park’s water feature or playground named in their honor, they could donate an appropriate sum to make it happen. • rescinded a resolution to raise fees charged to septic haulers when they dump a truckload of sewage at the sewer treatment plant. The board decided to reconsider fee increases after improvements at the plant were completed. • heard from Mayor Blais that the village code enforcement officer had issued warning letters to 11 property owners for various violations of town code. He said the properties owners were given until May to take necessary actions to correct problems, whether it meant repairs and upgrades to their structures, removing debris or hauling away junk cars. • gave permission to Americade motorcycle Rally organizers to set up their Tour Expo trade show in the Beach Road parking lot from June 4 to June 8, and approved the Lake George Community Band Festival to be held July 19 and 20 in Shepard Park.

Yankee Sportsman's Classic Show in Essex Junction, Vt. Jan. 18-20 ESSEX JUNCTION, VT. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The 20th Annual Yankee Sportsman's Classic Show, will be held Jan. 18-20 at the Robert E. Miller Expo Center in Essex Junction, Vt. The event brings together 15,000 sportsmen, women and their families from all over, to celebrate Vermont's hunting and fishing heritage. With nearly 175 exhibitors, there is something for everyone. During this long weekend, attend seminars, check out the latest gear, boats, trucks, tractors, ATVs, RVs and

Harleys, take advantage of show specials and the truckload sale on Cannon gun safes, talk with wildlife and fisheries experts, and book the hunting or fishing adventure of a lifetime or have your trophy officially scored by the VT Big Game Trophy Club. Twelve of the greatest whitetails ever taken will be available for viewing as part of the NRA's Great American Whitetail Collection. The kids can visit Ice Team's Kids Corner, try their luck at the catch, and release trout pond take part in the kids archery shoot, BB gun shoot and

retirement, rather than being able to use unused sick leave to reduce or eliminate their portion of the insurance premiums.

WCS teachers from page 1 years, and increase to 13 percent for 2014-15. Through 2011-12, teachers were contributing 10 percent of their health insurance premiums.

Switchover to new health plan Except for teachers who have reached the lifetime co-pay amount for the Matrix plan, teachers opting to receive benefits from the district will move to the less expensive Preferred Provider Option plan offered by the regional BOCES consortium. Those teachers choosing to remain in the Matrix plan who have not met the lifetime co-pay threshold must pay the difference between the PPO and Matrix plans. Warrensburg Central Superintendent of Schools Tim Lawson said that the contract provides long-term savings to the district through curtailing retireeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s options concerning health care premium payoffs. Retiring teachers will now contribute to health insurance plans at the same rate that they were contributing at the time of their

Salaries scheduled to increase Offsetting the concessions is a modest increase in the salary schedule. Salaries are to increase 1 percent in the 2012-13 year and another 1 percent in 2013-14, then 1.25 percent in the 2014-15 year. The agreement calls for zero increase in salary during the 201112 school year. These salary increases are on top of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;stepâ&#x20AC;? increases that are granted each year that average just under 2 percent. In Warrensburg, these step increases conclude at 26 years of service. Lawson said these increases are comparable to the amounts agreed to recently in the settlements in the Lake George, Bolton Landing and Granville schools. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think both sides spent a fair number of hours and a lot of hard work to reach this agreement,â&#x20AC;? Lawson said Tuesday Jan. 15. The teachers' former five-year contract expired June 30, 2011. Negotiations had started six months earlier. By Fall 2011, negotiations were at an impasse, and a Public Em-

Dance Marathon from page 1 businesses in the area, raised nearly $7,000 for charitable causes through the Dance Marathon. Event advisor Marlene DeLongis said Tuesday that the Dance Marathon, over its three years of existence, had raised a total of $23,000 for local people and families facing various needs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The kids did a great job of raising money, and we had a great group of parents and school staff who annually show up to make this happen,â&#x20AC;? she said. DeLongis said that a group of students helping organize the event would be talking this week with advisors about how to allocate the proceeds. Among the charities theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve already talked about are Operation Santa Claus, North Country Ministry, High Peaks Hospice, and the Ben Osborn

casting competition, minnow races or climb the 20ft rock wall. The Let's go Fishing Program will help sharpen your youngster's skills with lure and knot tying. Tickets are $10 for adults, $3 for children and children under three are free. Show hours: Friday noon - 7 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m. - 7 p.m. and Sunday 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. Free Parking. For more information, the entire seminar schedule and seminar speaker information visit www.yankeeclassic.net or call (802) 238-7501.

ployee Relations Board mediator was brought in to work with the two sides on a settlement. The PERB mediator worked with the parties three times over 2012, but no settlement was reached. In late fall, an attorney for the district and a labor relations specialist from the state teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; union continued to guide negotiations, Lawson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both parties feel this is a fair agreement,â&#x20AC;? he said. Warrensburg Teachers Association president Marc Mularz offered his comments Jan. 15 via email. He said that the settlement was fair considering the current economic climate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The teachers were very supportive of the agreement and recognized that concessions were necessary due to the continued underfunding of education by the state government,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully the state will see fit to restore education funding to at least the level of two years ago so that we can cease this spiral of reduced opportunities for students.â&#x20AC;?

Health plan details explained In the expired contract, a teacher that retired with 300 unused sick days could be

Memorial Fund, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All are great causes,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The heart of the Marathon is to give back to people in need in the local community.â&#x20AC;? During the event, the students played musical chairs, engaged in various contests including air drumming and lip synching, Pratt said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The students were a lot of fun and so respectful,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was refreshing.â&#x20AC;? Teenager Riley Fisk said the event was not only fun, but it offered timely rewards for community members facing hardship. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Marathon was held for a good cause,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people need help right now with the economy as bad as it is.â&#x20AC;? Her friend, Shelby Brainard offered a similar view. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We all had a good time while helping others,â&#x20AC;? she said. The event was open to parents and the public from noon

paid cash for 200 of them and use the remaining 100 to permanently â&#x20AC;&#x153;buy downâ&#x20AC;? their health insurance premiums, subtracting 1 percent for every 10 days accrued. Lawson said a fair number of teachers were doing this, and many effectively had no health insurance costs. The annual total cost of health insurance for an employee for the Matrix family plan is $24,000, and $20,000 for the PPO family plan. The cost for an individual Matrix plan is $8,300 and for $7,000 for the individual PPO plan, District Business Manager Cindy Turcotte said. She estimated that the conversion to the PPO plan and increase in employee contributions would result initially in a savings of $20,000 for the first year and $80,000 for each year thereafter. The school district currently pays about $3.6 million annually in health insurance expenses for its active employees and retirees, she added. Lawson said that overall, the new contract wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t yield a substantial immediate savings, but would lessen the load on taxpayers over the long run. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The projected long-term savings are significant, particularly with the projected future rate increases,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Among items donated were a bird house and bird feed donated by the WCS second grade teachers, a basket of maple products from Mike Hill of Thurman, and a Burgher spectator chair, branded sweatshirt, umbrella and cap, all donated by the WCS Football Booster Club. Warrensburg High School Principal Doug Duell said the generosity of the people in the region was â&#x20AC;&#x153;phenomenal.â&#x20AC;? He characterized the event as a success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Dance Marathon offers a great opportunity for the kids to do something meaningful for others,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s here tonight, but those who are here are having a great time while doing something important for others in the area communities.
