Thurman-based contractor Mike Eddy, backed up by about 100 townspeople, confronts the Thurman Town Board Feb. 12, calling for the town government to financially support Thurman’s independent ambulance squad. A proposition to appropriate $62,000 to the squad for 2013 was defeated by the board by a 2-3 vote.
BOY SCOUTS
Crowd demands EMS support By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com ATHOL — Faced with a crowd of 100 or more townspeople demonstrating support for the local independent ambulance squad, the Thurman town
board defeated a motion 3-2 to allocate $62,000 to the Thurman Emergency Medical Services for local coverage during 2013. During the meeting, more than a dozen people voiced their concerns to the board, asking them to support the squad financially. They contended that a locally-based squad would answer
emergency calls faster, and unlike squads based elsewhere, would give top priority to local calls. The lengthy town meeting was punctuated with passionate pleas, accusations, and angry outbursts, as well as cheers and standing ovations for people that expressed support for the local
Warrensburg citizens ring in town’s 200th year By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — As their cell phone displays changed from 5:59 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday Feb 12, nearly two dozen local citizens let out a collective cheer, hailing the ar-
rival of Warrensburg’s bicentennial. Gathered on the porch of the Cornerstone Victorian Bed & Breakfast at the urging of town historian Sandi Parisi, the group of history buffs rang bells and whirled various noisemakers in their ceremony to mark the 200th year — to the very day — since the town of Warrens-
burg was founded. On Feb. 12, 1813, local leaders met in the Warren House, a local tavern and hotel, and they signed documents to form the town, according to accounts of the town’s history. In the distance on Tuesday evening, the bells of various local churches rang out. In the First Pres-
byterian Church several blocks away, Tom Birdsall stood in the darkness of the church’s belfry, pulling on a thick rope to sound a bell believed to be nearly as old as the town. At the urging of local Chamber of Commerce official Lynn Smith, the CONTINUED ON PAGE 14

LAKE GEORGE — In a formal recitation at the monthly town meeting, Lake George Town Board member Marisa Muratori read off the accomplishments and affiliations, over 50 years, of community pillar Dennis “Denny” Galloway. In the audience, Galloway interjected a remark when Muratori paused in her speech accompanying her presentation of the 2013 Lake George Community Stewardship Award. “I’m getting tired listening to all this,” Galloway said in jest, evoking laughter from the crowd who were present to witness the event. However, the gathered firefighters, Rotarians and citizens who packed the hall weren’t tired of hearing about Galloway’s work through the years to boost the community and help his fellow citizens. Muratori noted that through 60 years or more, Galloway gave freely of his time and talents for others.

North Warren’s bicentennial dinner hosts capacity crowd thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — The citizens of Chestertown, Pottersville, Brant Lake and other northern Warren County communities demonstrated their generosity last weekend as they turned out in force to support a fundraiser for the local events associated with the county Bicentennial. The town of Chester ’s committee planning the local aspects of the county Bicentennial held a pasta dinner fundraiser Feb. 9 at the Pottersville firehouse. One of the committee members, Margaret Holmes, noted Tuesday that the event was very successful — so successful that the event organizers were sold out of food. She added that those attending enjoyed the homemade pasta sauce as well as the desserts created by local chefs.
The dinners were served by 14 Boy Scouts from Troop 30, based in Chestertown, Holmes said. “These young men are outstanding ambassadors for our community,” she said. “Also, everyone enjoyed the old-fashioned pasta dinner and getting together with friends and family.” Expressing thanks to both the attendees and those who worked to make it a success, she observed that each Horicon Town Board member donated money for dinner supplies. She added that the area residents turning out for the dinner really enjoyed socializing, particularly considering winter ’s isolation. “During Warren County's Bicentennial year, we in North Warren are committed to growing together as a community,” Holmes said. “This is just another example of that concept working.”

Railway closes down The Exchange at North Creek By Andy Flynn and Katherine Clark denpubs@denpubs.com
NORTH CREEK — Less than nine months after Iowa Pacific Holdings opened The Exchange at North Creek retail outlet here on Main Street, the store has closed. Opening on Memorial Day weekend and celebrating a grand opening on June 30, 2012, The Exchange locked its doors for the last time on Wednesday, Feb. 6, according to full-time manager Lisa Cameron, who lost her job along with two others (one part time and one full time). The Exchange was a local artisan store, filling the space left vacant at Village Square plaza by the former Mountain and Boardertown ski shop. More than two dozen local artists and crafters were consigning their work, including original paintings, prints, woodwork, fiber arts, books, maps and a variety of crafts. Contacted by phone on Feb. 13, Cameron thanked the railroad for the opportunity, the store’s artists who sold items and her customers. “When the railroad came into town and saw all the empty spaces, they wanted to do something for the good of the community,” Cameron said. “And it started out as a community project. The focus for the future was for somebody in the community or a group of community members to take over The Exchange. And nobody was really stepping up to the plate to do that.” To help stimulate that community involvement, the railroad set up a seven-member board to direct the retail operation. And despite a fickle economy and unpredictable flow of tourists, The Exchange was growing its customer base, ac-

cording to Cameron. The main problem was the overhead costs were too high, specifically the rent, she said. A year ago, the shop was undergoing a transformation, paid for by Iowa Pacific, the parent company of the Saratoga & North Creek Railway, which began passenger service between North Creek and Saratoga Springs in 2011 and is currently launching freight service from Barton Mines in North River and the old Tahawus titanium mine in the town

of Newcomb. Phone calls were not returned by the railway; however, the company issued a press release stating the reason for the store’s closure. “The Saratoga & North Creek Railway is a transportation company at our core. As we look to continue the expansion of our own operations, it is important that we focus our efforts on the overall goal to service the public as a full-time passenger rail service operation. Unfortunately, The Exchange does not fit into our organization’s overall objectives at this time and will be closed effective immediately. The retail space will revert back to the landlord.” Gore Mountain Region Chamber of Commerce Director Lisa Salamon said she heard on Feb. 6 the business was closed, with artworks and products still inside waiting to be picked up by the artists. “It’s disappointing to see any type of business close in this downward economy, and it’s sad to see this store closing,” Salamon said. “It brought a great energy to the downtown and had great things inside.” The Exchange was a retail outlet with a purpose; it also hosted public programs and workshops, mostly led by artists who sold items there. In its release, the Saratoga & North Creek Railway officials said they “look forward to supporting new business opportunities for North Creek and existing businesses throughout downtown as we continue to expand service to the Adirondacks.” As she looks for a new job, Cameron is trying to stay positive. “We were very grateful to all of our artists and to have them be a part of our venture,” Cameron said.

Thurman EMS from page 1 ambulance squad. The crowd was the largest in decades to attend a local town board meeting. Town supervisor Evelyn Wood responded that she fully supported local EMS services, but she warned that adding its cost to property taxes would be too burdensome for many, particularly those on fixed incomes. Figures she’s cited in the past indicate that funding the agency would hike local property taxes by 17 to 20 percent or more. Board member Gail Seaman repeatedly proposed that the Thurman squad seek a merger with Warrensburg Emergency Medical Services. She said such an action would likely make the combined agency eligible for a $200,000 grant, noting that Warrensburg EMS already is responding to most of Thurman’s calls — 60 of 89 for 2012. “The two agencies should meld as a group for better coverage and provide Advanced Life Support,” she said. “Is better to have qualified, experienced people responding, or is it better to tax ourselves to oblivion?” Her merger proposal was shouted down by the crowd, with people questioning whether the combined squad’s Thurman-based ambulance would occasionally answer calls on the Northway or in Warrensburg, rather than being available for use in Thurman. Members of the crowd also questioned whether the Warrensburg Squad would need an annual stipend to cover Thurman, and if they did, why not invest the money in the Thurman agency which is comprised primarily of local people? Thurman EMS President Jean Coulard said that in such a merger, citizens of Thurman would lose out. “Thurman would gain nothing — and the Warrensburg squad would get our ambulance and our building,” she said. Warrensburg Squad Captain Steve Emerson confirmed that his agency would be asking the town of Thurman for $50,000 annually to provide service. The Thurman squad — for about a decade up through last year — was contracted to provide services for annual payments from the town ranging from $27,300 to $40,000. Wood said that in addition to burdening the townspeople with additional taxes, the squad might lose control over its finances if it contracted with the town. She said that the state Comptroller has warned that towns contributing to EMS agencies must set the EMS service rates and impose billing practices — and act as a collection agent for patients who

don’t pay. In contrast, Thurman has always had “soft billing” practices which involves collecting from insurance companies and out-of-area individuals, but not sending follow-up bills to local individuals for ambulance services. Wood said such “soft billing” was not now allowed under state law. Members of the audience disagreed, but Warrensburg EMS Board President Bob Farrell said after the meeting that Wood was indeed correct in her warning. Wood said she didn’t want the town to be forced to collect sums from local people, which might mean imposing liens on property if residents don’t pay up for ambulance runs. With other board members noting that Advanced Life Support abilities and equipment was vital to protect the townspeople — certification not now granted to the local agency — town board member Al Vasak questioned if Thurman EMS were granted a contract, whether they’d actually achieve ALS status and be able to give residents such advanced services. He said that over the past five years, Thurman squad officers said they were close to achieving ALS certification, but it hadn’t actually occurred. Thurman EMS President Jean Coulard disputed Vasak’s statements. Others said such status could indeed be achieved with long-term support of the town government. Wood said the town couldn’t practically appropriate money mid-year for EMS services, as the budget had already been set, and reserves were limited.
Adirondack Journal - 5 Former Town Supervisor John Haskell questioned whether the town government actually had more money in savings than were indicated in the 2013 budget. Wood answered that various reserve accounts were designated for particular purposes under state law, and couldn’t be spent. She said that the town was committed and contracted to spending $261,000 on road repairs — much of the expense stemming from the 2011 Memorial Day flooding that destroyed portions of virtually all roads in town. The audience, however responded that human lives were higher priority than roadways. Wood replied that appropriating $62,000 mid-year would also cause Thurman to run afoul of the state tax-cap laws. “If we make an appropriation like this, next year we’ll have serious financial problems in town,” she said. She and other board members responded that if every person in the audience voluntarily donated money to the squad, it would have enough money to continue operations — at least for a while. Board members noted that with “hard billing,” the residents who didn’t use the services would have to pay for it, and residents who did use the service would pay both through their taxes and when the squad responded to their emergency. Jean Coulard responded that without support from the town, Thurman EMS would have to close its doors Friday, Feb. 15. 23318

Adirondack Journal Editorial
A date worth remembering Military sacrifices should be honored every day
T
here are dates with obvious significance. Feb. 19 is not one of them, but maybe it should be.
Feb. 19, 1945, U.S. Marines landed on the Japanese island of Iwo Jima. The small island, about 10 square miles, was vital to an anticipated American invasion of Japan that would end World War II. When U.S. Marines finally secured the island on March 16, they had 6,891 dead and more than 18,000 wounded. The casualty rate among Marines on Iwo Jima was a staggering 22 percent. All but 212 of the 22,000 Japanese defenders on the island died. Ray Tolar of Ticonderoga remembers Feb. 19. A Marine, he was there in 1945 and has made a point of marking the anniversary ever since. “On Memorial Day we raise the flag and salute,” Tolar said. “But we should do more. We should remember the sacrifices of Americans every day. “Mark Feb. 19 on your calendar and, if you will, give thought to this meager reminder,” he said. “A degree of sorrow will be felt in your heart as well as a tremendous sense of pride for being an American and what it stands for. Semper Fi. “For me this is a cause,” Tolar said. “It’s important to remember what freedom costs, to remember those who have died.” After three days of fighting Marines captured Mount Suribachi, the island’s highest point. There Marines raised an American flag, a moment that became famous thanks to a photo shown around the world. Many assumed the flag raising was a symbol of victory. It was really just the start. That was 68 years ago. In the years since American men and women have continued to sacrifice. We received a painful reminder of those sacrifices when Staff Sgt. Venne, age 29, of Port Henry was killed in Paktiya Province, Afghanistan, last November. Venne and others made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation. Other sacrifices are less apparent. Tom Bain of Putnam, who plans to retire from active Army service this June after 23 years, recently noted the sacrifices of his family. “The service to my country is not a solo event,” he said. “I have to give great credit to my wife of 20 years, Christine, and my children, Tommy and Caitlin. Without their support, a career in the military would not have been possible. I am eternally grateful for the support they gave me throughout the years and am sorry for the sacrifices and challenges they faced in my many absences.” A chief warrant officer, Bain has served around the world as a helicopter pilot. There are thousands of men and women like him — and families like his — serving our nation while asking so little in return. So, Feb. 19 let’s honor Ray Tolar ’s request. Let’s take a moment to think about the men, women and families, past and present, who have demonstrated the greatest ideal of our nation — the willingness to sacrifice for others. —Denton Publications Editorial Board

Stand up and speak out
I
am fortunate to be able to have and use this venue to voice my concerns about the direction of our country. Each week I hear from many of you. At times, I must admit I’m a little embarrassed by the acknowledgements and the degree of praise I receive. I think readers recognize I’m writing from the heart. It’s not so much how I put the words on paper, but perhaps the passion and belief behind what I try to convey. Like many of you, I’m concerned about the direction of our country, the attitude of our people and the things we see that are clearly not moving the nation in a positive direction. My goal here is to voice concern from a position that I hope the majority can agree needs attention. I also hope to encourage our leaders to put aside their party affiliation and hidden agendas designed to further divide the nation and stonewall needed legislation. I don’t consider myself a radical, a revolutionary or someone who sees a conspiracy behind every tree. There are simply subjects that I don’t see appearing in the national media, however, that should be covered and I’m concerned why they are ignored. I make these points because it reflects what I hear from many of you when you contact me. One of my concerns when I began writing this column a couple years ago was the fear of offending some readers or advertisers who ultimately pay the way for this free newspaper. I’m surprised at the number of you who express concern about speaking out and expressing their views either in letters to the editor, guest commentaries or comments on the web site. Fear of retribution is a major concern for many of you. The concern that in this land of free speech many have been silenced by fear, not of what others will think, but more so by what others may do, is an alarming trend. Respectful disagreement has taken a back seat in this day and age. One can easily see how outspoken individuals can be labeled “crackpots” or “nut cases” and the media and our politicians should take the blame for making citizens fearful about speaking out. Think for a moment, if you were given an opportunity to speak out respectfully about your primary concerns for the key issues facing this na-

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline
video of Dr. Benjamin Carson, a John Hopkins pediatric neurosurgeon who dug his way out of the poorest of situations when he was young and gave a speech last week at the National Prayer Breakfast. Carson offered his concerns for the nation on subjects like the deficit, education, taxation, political correctness, partisan bickering and God all while the nation’s leaders looked on. The video can be viewed on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyyHegP255g. In case you don’t have access to a computer, here is one of Carson’s many points: CARSON: “What we need to do is come up with something simple. And when I pick up my Bible, you know what I see? I see the fairest individual in the universe, God, and he's given us a system. It's called a tithe. We don't necessarily have to do 10 percent but it's the principle. He didn't say if your crops fail, don't give me any tithe or if you have a bumper crop, give me triple tithe. So there must be something inherently fair about proportionality. You make $10 billion, you put in a billion. You make $10 you put in one. Of course you've got to get rid of the loopholes. Some people say, 'Well that's not fair because it doesn't hurt the guy who made $10 billion as much as the guy who made 10.' Where does it say you've got to hurt the guy? He just put a billion dollars in the pot. We don't need to hurt him. It's that kind of thinking that has resulted in 602 banks in the Cayman Islands. That money needs to be back here building our infrastructure and creating jobs.”

100 Years Ago - February 1913 Glens Falls legend dies Henry Crandall, 92, the grand old man of Glens Falls, widely known as a philanthropist and beloved by all who enjoyed his acquaintance, died the morning of Feb. 19, 1913 at his home in Crandall Place, Monument Square. (Note: The traditional entrance of Crandall Public Library faces a park where Henry Crandall’s house used to be. On the left, his carriage house still exists now along the north side of Maple St.) Crandall expressed a desire to live until his 92nd birthday and that wish was granted him as of Feb. 13, 1913. He left a record of many noble deeds for the benefit of his fellow men. About two weeks ago, he had a slight shock of paralysis, later followed by attacks of greater severity which left him in a hopeless condition. Unable to eat he became unconscious and remained in that condition until he died. His only surviving relative is his wife of 54 years, the former Betsey “Hattie“Waters, 80, of Horicon. They were a wellmated couple who lived happily together until death separated them. Henry Crandall was born in 1821 at East Lake George in the town of Caldwell. In a common country district school, which he had to be away from more than less because of hard work he was obliged to perform on the family farm, he did succeed in acquiring an education which stood him well in hand when he entered the business world. When he was but a small boy he left home to work 10 months in the hills for a compensation of $11 to $13 dollars per month. He was determined to become successful in the business world and saved his money judiciously until at age 31 he had accumulated the sum of $1,000. Before and during the Civil War his money was invested successfully with John J. Harris and a man named Finch in a lumber tract in the Boreas River section of the Adirondacks. He became a leading lumber baron and retired after the war a wealthy man.
In 1850, he decided to be a resident of Glens Falls and has lived there continuously since that time. He was a faithful Episcopalian. He became a large real estate holder in this city that he grew to love. Around 1883 he bought the land now known as Crandall Park on upper Glen St. and spent nearly $30,000 in purchasing, irrigating, grading and improving the property, the free use of which was given to the city of Glens Falls and will forever be known and used as a public park by the city. A smaller park in the rear of the Crandall home, on Maple St,, was also opened for public use. On a knoll situated near the center of beautiful Crandall Park on upper Glen St. stands an imposing marble shaft, surmounted by a golden five-pointed star and in the base are two compartments, one of which will contain his remains, marked with the initials “H.C.” and the other will contain the remains of his spouse, marked only as “wife,” when it is her time to be laid to rest. The star is emblematic of the mark used by Mr. Crandall while engaged in the lumbering business. Henry Crandall’s whole life was spent in doing good and he has laid up treasures in Heaven which he will now enjoy. It is expected that all business places in Glens Falls will close during the hour of the funeral. (Note: On May 30, 1872 the Glens Falls Soldier ’s Civil War monument was dedicated on the little island at the intersection of Glen, Bay and South streets in front of the Crandall home. In 1882 the Town Board appropriated $75 to keep the monument in repair and Henry Crandall was given the job of caring for it. He did this faithfully until at age 91, he said he was no longer able to do the job. That year, however, there was a movement by the Common Council to relocate the monument because it was deemed a traffic hazard and Crandall opposed the idea. He won his battle and the monument still stands today at its original site. On Feb. 22, 1913 Henry Crandall’s remains were encased in a copper casket at the base of the 40-foot marble shaft in Crandall Park. There is a rumor that
his two favorite white horses are buried in front of the monument.)
New factory to open William I. Garnar of Luzerne has rented his factory in Hadley, formerly run by the Adirondack Novelty Co., to a firm which will manufacture toothpicks. The business will start on May 1, 1913 and employ about 25 people.
New car, happy doctor Dr. M.D. Smith happily appeared on the city streets with his new five-passenger Carter touring car, which he purchased from M.J. Gray at the Glens Falls Automobile Co. The machine is a 1913 model, has a selfstarter and is equipped by electric lights and friction drive, the latter eliminating all gears.
Edgecomb Pond fire Jamon McDonald’s house on the shore of Edgecomb Pond in the town of Bolton, caught fire on Sunday afternoon and was considerably damaged before the flames were extinguished by a bucket brigade composed of neighbors who promptly responded to an alarm. The blaze, which started in an upper story, was probably caused by an overheated stovepipe or a defective chimney. Mr. McDonald and Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Burch, who live with him, are at present staying at the home of F.G. Palmer.
Hotel man buys farm Harry Bolton has bought William H. Swan’s farm, formerly known as the Truman Everts place, on the river road some distance above the Warrensburgh County Home. There is about 200 acres of fertile land, much of it heavily timbered. The purchase price is understood to be about $5,000. The farm is considered to be one of the best in this section. Mr. Bolton, who retired from the hotel business last fall, has moved into his new farmhouse.

Events & activities in Thurman by Kathy Templeton 623-2967 feidenk33@yahoo.com
Quick action at fire saves home Heidi Haskell expresses her thanks to the Thurman Fire Co. members for promptly responding to a structure fire at the home of her brother, Douglas Steele. Thurman Fire Chief Jeremy Bradway was the first on the scene and acted swiftly, first calling for backup from Warrensburg then assisting Steele to safety outside of his home. Bradway then quenched the flames with a fire extinguisher he carries in his personal vehicle and then he made sure no one else was in the home. Steele’s cat was saved in the evacuation effort. Three Warren County Sheriff officers arrived and offered additional fire extinguishers — which they all carry. The Thurman fire truck arrived moments afterwards. Backup from Warrensburg was then cancelled and Thurman fire crew doused the area surrounding the fire and used a thermal imaging camera to assure there were no “hot spots” which can be miniscule and could start a secondary fire long after responders leave the scene. Bradway reviewed the thermal imaging evidence and it was determined that there were no hot spots. The firefighters left the scene at 1:30 a.m. Additional expressions of appreciation go out to Jim Desourdy, Kylee Combs, Richard Ovitt, Dustin Haskell and Keith Fortner. Also, Thanks go to the American Red Cross of Glens Falls for helping with clothes, food and cleaning supplies. Steele is back in his home; however, the kitchen floor, cabinets, refrigerator, and stove are ruined and need replacing. Heidi Haskell asks that anyone who has a refrigerator, or gas stove they could offer, or has materials for fixing the kitchen to contact her at 696-3732. We all applaud the work of our local responders, who safeguard the lives, property and health of our town’s citizens.
Highway Crew tribute lunch set Donations are now being sought for the upcoming luncheon to honor the Thurman Highway Department employees. The highway workers, who have served well during an eventful year, are to be hailed at the annual luncheon, set for 11 a.m. Feb. 26 at the Thurman Town Hall. Debbie Runyon has volunteered to organize the event, and she is seeking people to assist by donating food and drinks, plastic plates and cups, silverware, etc. Anyone interested in helping Debbie should contact her at 744-5677 — help would be greatly appreciated. Debbie expresses thanks in advance to those who can as-
The Sugarloaf Mountain Seniors Club’s Feb. 16 meeting has been postponed — the group will be holding a luncheon at 11:30 a.m. Feb. 20 at George Henry’s in Warrensburg Norma asks that seniors bring their membership dues of $10 to the event. Warrensburg Elementary School will be holding an Open House from 6 to 8 p.m. March 27. Many activities are planned for this event, including a fundraiser for the elementary school playground, an effort sponsored by the PTSA. The fundraiser will feature children stuffing their own toy animal, and associates from “Animal Land” will be there to helping families in making their own stuffed cuddly friend. The fee will be around $20 per animal and proceeds benefit the playground.
Goodnow celebrates 92nd Laura Cameron Goodnow expresses thanks to all who organized and participated in her recent surprise party, held to celebrate her 92nd birthday. Laura was told by one of her grand-daughters that she was being taken out to Olive Garden for lunch, but they needed to stop off briefly at the Thurman Town Hall. It indeed was a special event for her as even her granddaughter Holly Rogers came all the way from New Orleans to celebrate with her. When Goodnow walked into the town hall everyone yelled “surprise!” — to her delight.
Over the fence Tammy Winslow extends a Thank You to a stranded motorist she assisted by volunteering the use of her home phone to call a repair man for assistance. The motorist returned the favor with a lovely gift of a bouquet of flowers delivered to her home. Tammy did not get the woman’s name, but hopes that she will read this and know how nice Tammy thought this gesture was. This incident raises the question, what have we done lately to “give back” to others? How about paying for the next person’s coffee at the coffee shop you stop into before heading to work? Simple things like this will make you feel great and the recipient, even better! Did you know that those little box tops on the items you buy mean real dollars to schools, Warrensburg elementary and high schools in particular? Every five box tops can yield $2.50 cash to the schools, and Campbell’s soup labels yield nearly 20 cents each, and the “Labels for Education” are worth about 25 cents per label. The labels can be deposited in a convenient drop box at the Thurman Town Hall, just inside the front doors. I will pick these labels up and make sure they get to the appropriate person so they can help our local students. So, please drop these labels off when you drive through town!
On a personal note Esther Kennedy’s 11 children would like her to be remembered on the 10-year anniversary of her passing. Her chil-
when she expired. Until 1906, she resided in Chestertown. Porter Stone, 69, died Feb. 4, 1913 after a short illness of pneumonia. A veteran of the Civil War, he moved to Stony Creek around 1873. He was a faithful member of the Methodist Church at Lens Lake. He left a widow, two daughters and two sons, William and Floyd Stone, all of Stony Creek.
News roundabout The new restaurant, Jack’s Oyster House, opened on Jan. 23, 1913 in Albany and is enjoying much popularity. (Note: Now, 100 years later, it is still going strong.) Seneca Ray Stoddard’s illustrated Adirondack guidebook, published in 1873, has been revised and reprinted and is still currently a best seller. (Note; Stoddard, a Glens Falls resident, died at his home there, April 26, 1917, but his legend lives on.) A new little son, Paul Burch was born to Mrs. Harry Burch in Athol. Myron Green of Johnsburgh has had a telephone placed in his house. Mrs. L.H. Aldrich and daughter, Pauline from Stony Creek have spent this winter boarding in Warrensburgh. Extensive improvements are being made to the dining room of the Adirondack Hotel in Warrensburgh. The ceiling is being lowered with beaver board and the side walls with burlap. H.H. Hill furnished the material while George and Walter Hill and Stillman Towne are doing the work. (Note: This hotel stood where Rite Aid pharmacy is located now. Decades ago, the town planning board asked the developers to build the pharmacy to resemble the hotel’s architecture, and they did so, creating one of the first Rite Aid buildings in the northeastern U.S. to reflect the local historic architecture. Delbert Chambers and other members of the Warrensburgh Historical Society made the successful plea for the historic appearance.) Thought for the day: “Old age as it comes in the orderly process of nature is a beautiful and majestic thing.” (Note: this is hilarious. It must have been penned by someone young and naïve or someone who enjoyed reading numerous dusty old magazines in the doctor ’s office.) Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 623-2210.
dren are Hiram, Matt, John, Milton, Wayne and Kathy Kennedy; Virginia Vansyk; Shirley Burt; Vivian Ekstrand; Patricia Hill and Nancy Hill. Esther was a wonderful mother, greatly missed and on a personal note, she was a dear friend to my grandmother as well. Congratulations go out to Sophia Magagnoli, who was recently awarded by Warrensburg Central School authorities. Sophia, a fifth-grade student, is the daughter of Jeana and David Levitsky of Warrensburg. Sophia was nominated for the award her music teacher, Mrs. Davey, who noted, “Sophia is an exemplary student. She is smart, kind, and compassionate to other students and teachers as well, understanding and tolerant of others’ opinions, a diligent worker in class, and truly loved by all.” Celebrating anniversaries this week are Reggie and Gail Needham on Feb. 17, and Jerry and Evie Lucia on Feb. 22. This is the 10th anniversary for the Lucias! Celebrating birthdays this week are Elizabeth Hayes, Cliff Dureau, Marilyn Russell, and Millie Venton on Feb. 16; Theresa Beadnell Stannard on Feb. 17; Ed Baker, Jr. on Feb. 18; Maria Allison on Feb. 20; Peggy Florence on Feb. 21; plus Cheyanne Hill and Dennis Galusha on Feb. 22.

Celebrating Its 103rd Anniversary
Boy Scouts thrive in Warren County region By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com WARREN COUNTY — The Boy Scouts organization has traditionally enjoyed remarkable strength in the northern Warren County region, with the number of scouts, lineup of activities and level of commitment substantially stronger than in other areas of the nation. This past year has been no exception, as the area scouts, through their communityservice activities, have had a remarkable impact on citizens’ lives — and through their Eagle Scout projects have permanently enhanced their host communities.
Troop 13 pursues service, fun Lake George Scoutmaster Grant Gentner noted that Troop 13 scouts, residents of the Lake George School District, have been active with challenging and fun activities as well as community service projects. Brad Schreiber will be awarded his Eagle Scout certification in a ceremony at 2 p.m. Feb. 24 at the Bay Ridge firehouse on Bay Road in Queensbury. Schreiber reconstructed the Memorial Garden at the Lake George Emergency Squad headquarters. The project, undertaken in 2012, involved landscaping with new plantings, as well as rebuilding the base of the flagpole and installing solar lighting. Scout Nathan Markwood also completed a project toward his Eagle status, constructing handicapped access to Hovey Pond, including ramp and barriers. From now on, people with physical challenges can enjoy barrierfree access to the edge of the pond and enjoy its beauty, Gentner said. Also this past year, Alex Labruzzo refurbished the pavilion at Sacred Heart Church in Lake George, with the assistance of other local scouts. The outdoor gazebo, formerly deteriorating, now provides a comfortable place where parishioners and local citizens can reflect and meditate. Also, scouts Mason Gentner and Ben Smith are now in the process of working to-

ward attaining Eagle Scout distinction. Gentner, a senior at Lake George High, is working on upgrading the recycling operation at the town transfer station, a project that includes providing new signs and bins as well as developing educational materials with an aim to boost recycling. Smith, a junior at LGHS, is working on a project to develop a nature trail for the town
of Queensbury — envisioned to provide fun and educational hiking opportunities for area citizens. Troop 13 has been active throughout the year, Grant Gentner said. Last weekend, the troop went winter camping, which featured a snow hike and an ice fishing experience — we hear the scouts caught quite a few. In July, the scouts enjoyed the varied ac-
tivities offered at Camp Wokpominee. “Our guys have a lot of fun,” Gentner said of his 15 active scouts. They’ve also helped out others through community service events — whether volunteering to work at community dinners in the region or helping out at major events Like the Hudson Valley Volunteer Firemen’s Association parade.

The Boy Scouts of Troop 30 in Chestertown are renowned for being both ambitious adventurous — and 2012 underscored these traits. In August, the scouts conducted their own summer camp, planning and overseeing their five days at Lake Eaton, filled with various activities. Next year, they’ll not only be conducting camp at Fish Creek and Rollins Pond, but they will be taking a high-adventure expedition, hiking the ≈NorthvillePlacid Trail — 133 miles long — in several phases. In 2012, they had a variety of high-adventure experiences, including a 50-mile canoe trip over five days in July from Old Forge to

The troop has experience at long distance canoeing. In recent years, they’ve worked on a long-term project to traverse the entire length of the Hudson River. Such a spirit of adventure has drawn 20 scouts into their ranks, a considerable number in relation to the population of their home-base communities. Troop 30 also is well-known for delving into community service. One of their scouts, Christiaan VanNespin, just finished his Eagle Scout project of refurbishing the audio-visual system for the North Warren Central School auditorium and theater. The updating of the facilities included lighting, electronic and sound controls as well as construction work, according to Scoutmaster Chris Stiles. VanNespin’s work will undoubtedly be appreciated by community members for many decades. Four scouts in the troop are

working on attaining Eagle Scout status. The troop, based in Chestertown, is also very busy with a full roster of campouts year-round. Just recently, the scouts enjoyed participating in the Klondike Derby, which hosts dozens of troops from the region for various competitions to put their winter camping and survival skills to the test. Plenty more similar campouts are planned throughout the year. Community service is also a key activity for members of Troop 30, Stiles said. Upcoming trips for the scouts include a trip in May to Cape Cod which features both a lengthy hike and an ocean whale-watch excursion; a High Peaks campout in March; and an indoor rock-climbing session in April. Whether it’s assisting at the Chestertown Library in recycling books, serving at community dinners, or providing traffic control at Chestertown events, the scouts are there to lend assistance, Stiles said. “We’ve got a very active troop,” he said.

demonstrations — all with a purpose of building self-reliance. Looking forward to more adventure, the Warrensburg Scouts are ready for another Adirondacks expedition, Hensler said. “The boys are gung-ho on climbing, so we’re going to pick a new challenging destination,” he said.

In Warrensburg, the Boy Scouts of Troop 100 have enjoyed an eventful year, Scoutmaster Ray Hensler II reported this week. Lance Bedell, who will be receiving his Eagle Scout designation this year, completed a project of constructing a handicapped ramp, with a roof overhead, for the American Legion Hall on River St. Bedell’s fellow scouts, as well as parents, assisted in the project that was well appreciated by Legionnaires. From design and permitting to the finishing touches, Bedell was dedicated to the project. The Troop 100 scouts have continued their tradition of patriotism, participating in the flag retirement ceremony held in November. These scouts also know how to have fun, while building self-reliance and developing a strong work ethic. They've taken various hikes in the region, including their Adirondack High Peaks expedition — a climb in The Cascades during October. They also attended Camp Wokpominee, enjoying the full roster of activities. Incidentally, they attended a work camp on weekends in October to upgrade the premises, which attests to the scouts’ volunteer spirit. Just recently, they participated in the regional Klondike Derby at the camp, which featured spending the night outside despite frigid temperatures. The experience included orienteering, wilderness survival sessions, fire starting contests, and ice rescue

Winter Break Party slated
Moonlight skating & bonfire set The Town of Bolton Recreation Department has scheduled a new event for area youth and families that offers fun and good exercise. Titled the Bolton Full Moon Ice Skating & Bonfire event, it is to be held from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday Feb. 23 at the Bolton Conservation Club at 50 Edgecomb Pond Road. The event is weather permitting, according to Recreation Director Michelle Huck. “Join your friends in an evening of ice-skating on the pond,” she said. “The moon will be 94 percent full on this night and should make for some great fun.” Huck added that plans call for a bonfire, hot chocolate or hot cider to warm up participants, who are asked to bring their own ice skates. “Glow sticks” will be handed out so children can collaborate on a visual spectacle, she said. For details, contact Huck at: 928-3176.
Bolton’s Youth Winter Break party is to be held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday Feb. 16 at the Bolton Conservation Club, 50 Edgecomb Pond Road. Ice skating, snowman crafting, ice bowling, snow painting, games and prizes are all featured in the event. A lunch with hot dogs as entrees will be offered from noon to 1:30 p.m. and crafts and games are to be featured from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. A bonfire with s’mores and campfire stories are to occur at 2 p.m. Those participating in ice skating are asked to bring their own skates.

LARAC art exhibit closes Friday
GLENS FALLS — This Friday brings the last chance for art enthusiasts to see the collaborative exhibit, “Passage of Time” at LARAC’s Lapham Gallery. The exhibit features original works by four regional artists — Marta Jaremko, Karen Koziol, Jon Segan, and Sheri Snedeker. Each artist revives aged objects, photographs, and other media into new sculptures or paintings. The discarded materials find new substance as candid narratives or novel combinations, a reviewer has noted. Lapham Gallery is located on City Park in downtown Glens Falls. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. For details, call 798-1144, ext. 2 or see: www.larac.org.

group at Cornerstone Victorian broke into a chorus of “Happy Birthday — Warrensburg.” It’s thrilling that so many people came here to ring in the next 100 years,” Parisi said after the group’s song subsided. Bob and Peggy Knowles shook a decorative cowbell from Switzerland for the celebration. Mike Sullivan pressed a button on his smartphone that played faux chimes. Liz Sebald and others, however, took a break to reminisce. Sebald has lived in Warrensburg since her birth in 1939. She recalled how much of the ambiance of olden days has been retained. One major difference is the “new” subdivision built decades ago northeast of the historic Ashe’s Hotel off Hudson St., built where the Warren County Fairgrounds once stood. “I remember as a child, how I used to sneak under the fence for the horse races there,” Sebald said. ”Warrensburg was a great town to grow up in — It was lots of fun.” Ruth Fruda, born at home in a house on Third Avenue, added her thoughts. “The town is now better than I remember from my youth,” she said. “These are exciting times for Warrensburg with the revitalization occurring and all the other things happening.” Pride in Warrensburg again takes center stage as the town’s bicentennial is recognized at 7 p.m.Wednesday Feb. 13 in the Warrensburg Town Hall. This observance of the town’s bicentennial is to occur at the beginning of the monthly town meeting. Then on Friday Feb. 15, Warrensburg will again be honored for its 200th anniversary at the Warren County Board of Supervisors monthly meeting, 10 a.m. in the county Municipal Center, off I-87 Exit 20. Warren County’s Bicentennial is being celebrated this year, too. See: www.warrensburghistorian.org or: www.warrenny200.org.
Community Briefs Quilts guided slaves to freedom? The Caldwell-Lake George Library is hosting a free program called "Story Quilts of the Underground Railroad" at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 20. Stan Malecki, an educator at the Parks-Bentley Place in South Glens Falls will present full-sized quilts and samples of “message quilts” used to guide escaped slaves as they traveled north. Quilt patterns such as "Monkey Wrench," "Tumbling Blocks" and "Bear Paw" may have given slaves information on when to escape, what direction to travel in and what homes on the route north might be safe houses. Call 668-2528 for reservations as seating may be limited.

Galloway served for decades on the Lake George Fire Department — since joining in 1948 — and as a town board member for 12 years, primarily in the 1970s. But his major accomplishments may have been through his work coordinating dozens of projects through the Lake George Rotary Club, for which he has been an officer and active member for a total of 60 years.

Bob Flacke, who was town supervisor when Galloway served on the board, said Galloway always had the citizens’ best interests at heart. “He’s dedicated his life to accomplishing projects for the community,” Flacke said. “He’s always giving to others.” Galloway deferred credit for his work,
