Jack Wax party set for Sat. in Athol

This Week ELIZABETHTOWN COOKIE TIME

ATHOL — An age-old North Country tradition returns this Saturday as dozens of people from near and far gather for Thurman’s annual Jack Wax Party. This community get-together, considered the event to welcome in springtime up here in the hills, features a dessert of maple sugar ladled over snow or shaved ice. But that's just the featured offering. The party includes tables full of savory homemade dishes, infectious mountain music, friendly socializing among townspeople and newcomers —

The village of Lake George now owns 38 percent, after the previous town administration sold the town’s initial 19 percent to the village several years ago.

Nicaraguan effort laudable

o better understand the severe poverty and unspeakable living conditions Nicaraguans endure every day, a couple from California decided last June to move there and live off $2 a day like 80 percent of Nicaragua does. That’s $2 per day for everything from food to drinks and clothing to health care and shelter. With the average cost of a plate of food in Nicaragua at $2.50, the couple gave up after just five days, saying they could no longer keep up their energy level on the meager amount of food that much money provided. They documented the experience on a blog at lifeoutofthebox.com. “In order for us to be as productive as we always are, we had to get more food,” the couple wrote. “It was hard to even think on the last day of the experiment and that was the final straw.” The couple later called it a “life changing experiment.” “Our perspective on life was completely altered once we experienced life in survival mode,” they wrote. Yet survival mode is precisely how Nicaraguans live every day. Hunger is rampant in the country. It is the second poorest country in the western hemisphere; only Haiti has worse poverty. Nearly 50 percent (just over 5 million people) of the population exists on just $1 a day and a third of the population still has no access to sustainable sources of drinking water. Schroon Lake’s Clare Whitney and Elizabethtown’s Brody Hooper know firsthand how citizens of Nicaragua struggle to obtain the things so many Americans take for granted. Working with the Plattsburgh-based North Country Mission of Hope, the two high school seniors have made it their objective to raise awareness and money to provide food, schooling and shelter to Nicaraguans. Clare and Brody comprise the student portion of the North Country Mission of Hope leadership board. Clare has twice been to Nicaragua and plans to go again in July. Brody was there a week ago. While there the pair helped repair facili-

ties operated by Mission of Hope, distribute food and build modest shelters for Nicaraguans. They’ve also raised thousands of dollars to provide lunch for school-aged children — which is often their only meal of the day. Since it costs money for Nicaraguan children to attend school, Clare and Brody also work tirelessly to raise cash so Nicaraguans can get an education. Currently, nearly a quarter of all Nicaraguan children will leave school by the first grade. The latest fundraiser planned by Brody and Clare will take place this Sunday, March 10 from 4:30 to 8 p.m. at the Cobble Hill Inn Restaurant in Elizabethtown. Tickets for the spaghetti dinner are $10 a person and $30 for families of four or more people. The dinner is sponsored by National Honor Society chapters at Schroon Lake and Elizabethtown-Lewis schools along with the Cobble Hill Inn, which is providing the spaghetti and garlic bread. These groups and the owners of Cobble Hill Inn should be commended for the role they are playing in this worthwhile endeavor. At the same time, we simply cannot say enough good things about these two selfless local teens and the North Country Mission of Hope which gives 97 percent of all donations directly to the Nicaraguan people. We can think of few not-for-profit organizations that operate on less overhead. Then, there is Clare and Brody. As teenagers, this dynamic duo have accomplished more to help their fellow man than many Americans will in a lifetime. Lets get behind their effort by flooding this fundraiser with people. Then, please consider taking it a step further and sponsor a Nicaraguan child. Just $140 a year — less than $12 a month — will keep a child in school and pay for necessities. As Clare and Brody know, there is no better feeling than helping a fellow human being in need. Go to ncmissionofhope.org today and sponsor a child, or make whatever charitable donation you can. —Denton Publications Editorial Board

Service above self

s it a phrase that just sounds good, or is it how we live our lives? For many it’s a life code, deeply rooted in who they are and what their lives are all about. For others it’s a pickup line creating an opportunity to take advantage of those who possess nothing more than hope and faith that they can trust what is being promised. According to recent Rasmussen Surveys, most Americans feel connected to a local church or religious organization. Generally, people feel that they are connected and play a positive role in some organization with 67 percent rating volunteer work more important than politics. Fifty-seven percent would rather be called a good citizen than a patriot, while 86 percent believe individuals make their own success. Americans, a full 88 percent of us, see honesty and good parenting at the top of the list when it comes to successful lives. With statistics like these, one can understand the frustration so many feel today as we watch our elected officials on all fronts continue to let down the people they’ve promised to serve. In those surveys, government and politics are near the bottom of the list. We want to believe when we cast our votes that candidates have our best interest first and foremost, but time and time again, we get left paying the price while they reap the benefits. The sequester that we’ve been told would not happen, the effects of which would be so repugnant that it would force our warring political parties to capitulate and seek a compromise, has now taken place. The president hasn’t led; instead, he has spent more money continuing to campaign against the opposition and predicting doom, gloom and suffering in days ahead. The Republican-led Congress, once in favor of cutting tax loopholes with the effect of raising taxes, has dug in their heels telling us that the sequester spending cuts aren’t really cuts to current spending. And the Senate seems to be missing in action these days. No one is leading. And leading is what they all promised to do when they came looking for our votes. Follow me. Trust me. The simple truth is, their lack of honesty and integrity has produced a mess

that they’re all running away from, failing to accept responsibility for their lack of apDan Alexander propriate Thoughts from action. Behind the Pressline Once again we are peppered with empty promises. I wonder how long we can afford to let these self-centered, egotistical politicians make decisions that will affect the future of our country. Always more concerned with their job security and their legacy, it’s nothing more than a tennis match for them and we, unfortunately, are the ball. They’ve accepted a job and once again they failed to get the job done. Governing is not about them. It’s always been about the people … a people who believe in freedom, opportunity, honesty, hard work and a commitment to future generations. We are paying a tremendous price for a bipartisan government that continues to fail to meet its responsibility. At some point, we must end this calamity. We are now forced to wait another two years before we’ll get a chance to attempt to send them a message. I don’t think we have another two years to wait for them to drive the nation further into the hole. Our forefathers, the framers of the American Constitution, recognized the threat of governmental tyranny — the use of arbitrary power by those in government over her people — but they were also concerned with the danger associated with a populace uprising. “Separation of powers” and “checks and balances” were designed to protect the country from the European kind of rule. As a nation we must put aside our political differences and demand accountability from the people who have sworn to serve. It’s time for the American people to make their will known and insist that the government do their job to serve and protect us, not themselves.

100 Years Ago - March 1913 Red-headed girl disappears

Bertha, 16 years old, red-headed and vivacious, employed as a waitress at the Bolton House, suddenly left town one recent night without troubling herself to explain to her employer, landlord William O. Terry, the why and wherefore of her departure. At the same time Edward, a boarder at the hotel, who although a married man had been attentive to the girl, turned up missing. People wise to the circumstances have concluded that the pair packed their duds in one suitcase and took their departure together. Eddie is one of the few ne’er-do-wells of the town. He has been a bad boy ever since he learned to be one and has became adept at the art, such as it may be called. He has been mixed up in numerous scrapes and has served one term in the Albany Penitentiary for petit larceny. He is the only son of his mother and she is a widow who has tried to keep him on the narrow path of rectitude. Eddie has a wife and four small children and his wife says she doesn’t care if he ever comes back. Eddie’s last employment in town was with the Noble Brothers cutting ice and he hastened to collect his pay. He is alleged to have raised money to leave town by a forged check given to a Glens Falls merchant. Eddie and Bertha, his auburn-haired charmer, secretly made their preparation for flight and went to Lake George on a Hudson Valley trolley car and there he, so it is said, purchased two tickets for Buffalo. (Note: Because this scandalous couple both have last names common to this area, I have omitted them to avoid embarrassing any reader with a similar name who is probably no relation to them.)

Town’s oldest resident dead

Truman Everts, 92, Warrensburgh’s oldest resident, died Monday, March 3, 1913 of broncho-pneumonia. He had suffered from a cold which developed into pneumonia. His great age made it impossible to withstand

the attack of the terrible disease. Mr. Everts was born Aug. 10, 1820 in Thurman and came to Warrensburgh 38 years ago. He was brought up on a farm and the active years of his entire life were devoted to tilling the soil. When he moved to Warrensburgh, he bought a small farm on upper Hudson St. just outside the village where he lived in peace and comfort. His wife died four years ago. Alonzo Sherman was brought up by the old couple and he faithfully cared for them in their declining years. Mr. Everts deeded the property to Alonzo several years ago but retained a life lease. The deceased was twice married. His first wife was Samantha Mead, by whom he had one daughter, Addie, who became the wife of Wallace Baker of Warrensburgh. She died some years ago leaving two children, Dr. Bertram T. Baker and Mrs. Howard Brown. Truman Everts was buried in the Warrensburgh Cemetery, with the Rev. H.F. Titus officiating. (Note: The former Everts farmhouse is on the property just north of the Warrensburgh Cemetery on the east side, at 174 Hudson St. It has been owned and occupied by the same family for 138 years. Truman Everts bought the house in 1875 and deeded it to his adopted son, Alonzo Sherman who resided there with his wife, Anna Gregory. Their son Francis J. “Red” Sherman was born at home in 1920 and married Shirley Bell in 1965. Frank ran a motorcycle and used car sales shop on the property. His children were Carol and Joseph Sherman and stepdaughter, Faith McGinnis. He died at home Sept. 19, 2012 at the age of 92 years in the same bed he was born in and is buried in the cemetery next door in the Everts lot.

World news

The keys were given to the stationmaster of the brand new Grand Central Train Station terminal in New York City and on Feb. 2, 1913, it was opened to the public. (Note: This extraordinary building was saved in the 1970s by preservationists and in 2013 a postage stamp was issued in honor of the opening.)

Town’s Easter party scheduled Break out your “Sunday best” and clean those camera lenses, because the Easter Bunny is coming to Thurman Town Hall on Saturday March 23. The holiday party is to be held from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Children will be lining up to sit on the Easter Bunny’s lap after they’ve created their own special craft item. Other activities and refreshments will be provided. This seasonal party, free to the public, is annually hosted by the Thurman Youth Commission and paid for by Thurman Occupancy Tax funds.

Home-grown planting tips

With the economy in the current state, it makes sense for us all to grow our own vegetables. In Thurman, most all residents have the luxury of sufficient land surrounding our homes for growing produce that can fee our families at minimal cost. In addition, scientific tests have shown that homegrown food is generally far more nutritious — and tastier — than commercially available varieties that are raised with shipping durability as the top priority. Most of know that Thurman and surroundings are designated as Zone 5 for planting purposes. So, we’re publishing is a schedule of what you can plant and when you can plant it. There are some cool weather crops that can be planted in the spring, just as soon as it is warm enough to get outside and work the ground. These vegetables include spinach, arugula, mache, salsify and mustard greens, onions from sets, peas, and root crops: parsnips, beets, carrots, potatoes, radishes and turnips. In addition to these vegetables that are sown outdoors in the spring, some vegetables are best started indoors in the spring. Starting the vegetable seeds indoors extends the growing season, by allowing these warm weather crops to grow to large plants before transplanting them outside. When the weather warms enough that it is safe for these plants they are then taken to the vegetable garden and planted. Also, they will be ready to harvest sooner by starting them indoors first. These crops include broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, celery, cucumber, eggplant, endive, leek, lettuce, melon, peppers tomatoes.

Opinion - Adirondack Journal - 5

Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, 23, who since the age of 15 years old, has spoken eloquently on the street corners of New York City telling her audiences that workers deserved higher wages and better working conditions, is currently addressing strikers in Patterson, N.J. She is a leading organizer for the Industrial Workers of the World, a radical union known as the “Wobblies.” In the ever-growing advent of the automobile, gasoline in the early days was purchased by the bucketful at repair shops and mercantile stores. For the past eight years we have benefited from the invention of Sylvanus Bowser, who developed the first “filling station” in 1905 and owns a gasoline pump factory in Fort Wayne, Indiana. (Note; Bower had a penchant for sniffing gas, a aroma which he said he loved and smelled to him like money, It is suspected that in 1938 this habit was the cause of his death.)

Short winter now fading

The few inches of snow that fell on the last day of February has made business start up after a nearly bare winter. W.W. Bowyer of Chestertown has over 600 markets of logs which he has finished in 5 days. This is the quickest time for a job of that size that is known around here. All the teams that can be found are called into play and they work all day Sunday and not many words of criticism are heard and all agree that the end justified the means. The weather is now starting to slowly warm up and winter ’s backbone seems to be broken by the bright sun. In sharp contrast, it was just 25 years ago that the big blizzard of 1888, the greatest storm to ever hit this area, commenced. It began March 11 and continued for three days, leaving four feet of snow on the ground and mountainous drifts, some of which buried fences and were not completely melted the following August. (Note: In March 1804 a three-day storm nearly as bad left drifts 10 feet high.)

a suitable creature from The Pumpkin Fund is an option that is a caring thoughtful method of doing so. This not-for-profit corporation is dedicated to healing sick or injured pets when their owners can’t afford needed treatment and are likely to choose euthanasia simply because of monetary reasons. It is the organization’s objective that by assisting in the pets’ recovery, the owner ’s hearts will be relieved of the anguish of having to face such a difficult decision, and the owner in return will perform a random act of kindness for someone else in the future.

Jack Wax reflections

Sitting on my pantry shelf is the original pan used here in Thurman for preparing Jack Wax. It was borrowed from Rex Reynolds, whose mother Jean organized the party for decades. We hear the pan has been used to prepare the tasty confection every year for the Thurman Sugar Party since the year after its inception. Rex has stated that the pan is indeed old and dates back to the 1800s. The 2013 Thurman Jack Wax Party is set for Saturday March 9, so stop by and enjoy the mountain music, great food presented buffet style, warm socializing and of course that traditional rural favorite, Jack Wax, or maple syrup drizzled over shaved ice or snow. See elsewhere in this issue for details. Jack Wax parties have been held by North Country folks forever, and this confection, it has been said, probably originated with the Native Americans. In a Thurman diary from 1930, the writer tells of a Jack Wax party held at Athol Methodist Church, which once stood between The Thurman Town Hall and the Harris House. The event raised funds for the church, but one year the call went out to help the family of a young local boy stricken by leukemia. The next year, the church had closed and the young boy's life had been lost. Organizers decided to carry on the tradition of hosting the meal, and to donate the funds

when he was caught between logs and a tree. He was driving a heavy load of logs on a wagon from the Alvin Harris place in Athol to the Hudson River. Reaching an icy place where the road inclined toward a sloping bank, he whipped up the horses and succeeded in getting the front wheels over the dangerous place, but the rear wheels slewed and carried the wagon over the bank. The load tipped over and Dow was pinned between the heavy logs and a tree. His employer, Mr. Everts, who was nearby, went to his assistance and removed the logs from the unconscious man. Dow was carried to the home of Thomas Coyle, the nearest residence, where he was attended by Dr. J.M. Griffin. One of the man’s ribs was torn from his backbone and the other was broken in two places and he was also injured internally. If nothing else develops, however, he will probably recover.

Mystery drowning

William Petteys, 55, a former resident of Warrensburgh, drowned in the Hudson River and his body was found some time later near New Baltimore. In a pocket of the dead man’s coat were two letters, one was addressed to Jabez Waddell of Johnsburgh. Mr. Waddell was notified and his son, Delbert Waddell went to New Baltimore and viewed the body. By means of a scar on the forehead and a missing eye as well as general appearance, the badly decomposed body which had been in the water for several weeks was positively identified as Petteys, who was well known to the Waddell family. Just how he got in the water is a mystery which cannot be solved. He lived in Warrensburgh about 10 or 12 years ago and was employed in the Shirt Factory. He made his home here with his late sister, Mrs. L.N. Beach. Petteys married Hattie Morrison of Hamilton County and they had two children, Willie and Mabel Petteys. Waddell has been unable to locate the family. (Note: In 1615 Friar Elstow, when threatened with drowning by King Henry V111, said “With thanks to God we know the way to heaven, to be as ready by water as by land, and therefore we care not which way we go.” Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 623-2210.

to the American Cancer Society. This year marks 54 years that the dinner has been held for this purpose. Menu items at the party will include fresh turkey from Whitefields’ farm, spiral hams donated by the Witz family, corned beef provided by local grocery stores, baked macaroni and cheese prepared by Loraine Lambiase and Sheila Flanagan of Nettle Meadow – let’s not forget to thank their goats; maple carrots donated by Sally Feihel; breads and pastries by Myrna Keeler; a green-bean casserole created by Yvonne MacNeil; a baked ham donated by the Ligons; cranberry-topped green beans provided by yours truly; garden salads donated by the Terrells; other savory dishes by Adrienne Gliha-Bell, Susan Jennings, Gretchen Millington, and much, much more! Thank you to you all for your generosity. Appreciation also goes out to all of the volunteers as well — you know who you are! Also, others seeking to donate may drop off cooked side dishes just prior to the event and they will be warmed up for serving. If you are looking for something to do in Thurman prior to the party, stop into one of the several sugar houses, or all of them, and see how maple syrup is made. This is sure to be a hit for the young and old alike. For a map listing all of the sites stop into the town hall for a brochure or visit http://www.persisgranger.com/ThurmanMapleDays.htm #MapleParty. If tired after the day’s events, then stop into the Glen Lodge. To book a room, see: www.theglenlodge.com or call 494-4984.

Susan Baker remembered

Deepest sympathies go out to the family of Susan Baker of High St. who passed away March 2. Susan will be fondly remembered not only for her personality and character, but for her community involvement. Susan worked tirelessly on the town Summer Youth Program, and was the founder of the Mommie & Me group that was popular for many years. She served on the town Youth Commission and her accomplishments include the town Memory Tree, paying tribute to departed loved ones. Also, Susan served as an assistant to the town clerk, and substituted as town bookkeeper. For many years, she worked with the Thurman ambulance squad as Treasurer, as well as responding to many medical emergencies.

Cogeneration to yield windfall soon By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Although Warren County is seeking to sell Westmount Health Facility due to projected future losses, its finances are likely soon to yield a considerable windfall, a Westmount official told county supervisors Monday March 4. For a half-dozen years, the state government has balked in reimbursing the expenses associated with the county’s cogeneration plant that provides off-the-grid electricity and heat for the skilled nursing home. Despite approving the cogeneration and endorsing reimbursement of its expenses before it was installed in 2005, the state hasn’t paid the interest and depreciation that the county incurs in lieu of payments it would have made to National Grid for electricity. But now after various appeals by Warren County officials and a successful lawsuit by Saratoga County, Warren County is likely to receive a check for more than $500,000 — and more in the future, facility officials said. Westmount Controller Betsy Henkel told the supervisors that the state had initially paid depreciation but not interest incurred by the county for the first two years of cogeneration, and for the years since has disallowed all or portions of one or the other

of the two costs. In the meantime, Westmount officials have appealed the state’s lack of reimbursement, and Saratoga County sued successfully on behalf of their own Maple wood Manor Nursing Home, which also features cogeneration. Henkel said Monday that the county will likely be receiving $215,000 in reimbursement this year for the first two years of cogeneration capital expenses, and receive $300,000 to $400,000 for 2007 through 2009 — plus an additional yet-to-be-determined refund for the more recent years. She noted that the state is routinely two years behind in reimbursements. Although the state hasn’t formally committed to the payments, she said that auditors consider the payments a certainty. Warren County Administrator Paul Dusek said that the county could use the money to offset rising unavoidable costs. “This is absolutely good news for taxpayers,” he said. County Health Services Committee Chairman Matt Sokol said that the money would position the county in a more favorable situation as it negotiates the sale of Westmount. Dusek announced Monday the county will be negotiating soon with three potential buyers of Westmount, who have bid from $2.2 million to $3.5 million. “It’s imperative that the county receives the reimbursement as we move forward with the sale,” he said.

demonstrations are Adirondack Gold Maple, Valley Road, Hidden Hollow and Toad Hill maple farms. Visitors are also welcome at Martin's Lumber to see the polished, exquisitelygrained slabs of maple, along with stained-glass stepping stones and craftworks.

Girl Scouts dedicated to reaching out to others, pursuing adventure By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARREN COUNTY — Girl Scouting is flourishing in the region, as troop leaders in the area guide girls through experiences that build courage, confidence, and character — while contributing to their communities and making the world a better place. In Bolton Landing, Girl Scouting has outstanding participation — the local troops routinely enroll every single local girl in particular grades at Bolton Central School — introducing them to the fun and adventure of scouting. Such a commitment translates to a vibrant, caring spirit of helping others, local community leaders have noted. Bolton’s Troop 3131, for instance, has nine members, representing virtually all the girls in Bolton Central’s seventh grade. These girls enrolled as Kindergartners and have continued scouting throughout their elementary-school years and into junior high together. And their interest in scouting is not just about having fun together. All through these formative years, they’ve been dedicated to community service, troop leader Marianne Huck said. “These girls are remarkable,” she said. “These girls are all about helping others and serving their community.” In November, the troop went shopping, purchasing an extensive array of food items to make a local needy family’s Thanksgiving

a very memorable holiday. “The girls really enjoyed helping them out,” Huck recalled. Last Memorial Day weekend, the scouts joined members of the local American Legion post in replacing all the American flags on veterans’ graves locally. Every Veterans Day, they’ve visited the local Legion post to participate in their flag-burning ceremony. On an upcoming weekend, they’ll be headed off to Westmount nursing home to visit the elderly residents — it’ll be a pajama party — playing games with the seniors, reading to them, and perhaps painting some fingernails, Huck said. “The girls have been worried that some of

the seniors in nursing homes don’t get any visitors,” she said. “The girls truly want to bring happiness to others — I’m so proud of them.” The troop’s community service extends further. The girls have been planning to pick out a section of town and clean up litter from the roadsides, Huck said. Also, as primary school students, they planted bulbs surrounding the Bolton Town Hall parking lot, and since then when they pass by, they enjoy seeing how they’ve beautified their town through the years, Huck said. “The girls truly care about helping their community — that they love so much,” she said. “Community service is definitely their

focus — they are a very accomplished group of girls, they take pride in their town, and I’m proud of them.” In Warrensburg, a far younger group is following the footsteps of the Bolton Girl Scouts. A group of second graders in Troop 3207 has also been making vital connections with the elderly. Recently, the scouts, students at Warrensburg Elementary, visited Tri-County Nursing Home and played games and decorated cookies with the residents, to their delight. For Valentine’s Day, the scouts created valentines for veterans — in an outreach to show the former soldiers that their service to the nation was appreciated and not forgotten, troop leader Janelle Bacon said. “These girls are eager to reach out and help others,” she said. Also, the scouts collected toys to donate to underprivileged children, prior to marching in the annual South Glens Falls Holiday Parade. Janelle Bacon said this week that as the Girl Scout administration has consolidated and regionalized, it has been the focus of scout leaders in Warrensburg to make sure they strengthen their relationship with their hometowns. With this objective, the trip has conducted food and ornament sales at the Christmas in Warrensburgh fest as well as the annual Thurman Christmas Bazaar. They’ve also taken part in parades in both Lake George and Warrensburg.

The girls of Troop 3207 also have an interest in new and novel experiences, whether it’s field trips near or far. This weekend, they are taking a tour of sites in Thurman to get a taste of the rural life at the maple farms, Gary Martin’s sawmill, and the Nettle Meadow Farm where they will see how gourmet cheeses are crafted. Their older counterparts in Warrensburg, nine Girl Scouts in Troop 3426, undoubtedly have a taste for adventure. This past year these eighth graders participated in Jam Camp — held on the Washington County Fairgrounds, with various troops in the region. This mass gathering of 1,000-or-so Girl Scouts ended up teaching the Warrensburg girls to deal with some hardship, as they endured three days of bone-chilling rain, cold weather and stiff winds while camping out in tents, Troop 3426 leader Patty Miller said, noting that their nine years together as Girl Scouts helped them survive the experience. “It was cold, rainy and very windy — it sounded like a tornado coming through and some tents were blown over,” Miller said. “But the kids did great, and it was a good life lesson.” Doubtlessly, getting soaked and braving bitter weather will contribute points toward their Silver Awards, which they are all now working on. To achieve that status — and have fun in the meantime, the scouts of Troop 3426 have

You name it, we’ve done it,” she said, observing that the girls enjoy spending time together, and her group of seventh graders been active in scouting since Kindergarten. The various adventures of these Cadet Scouts have included a trip to Hershey Park, excursions near and far, and participation in Girl Scout gatherings and campouts. Their recent scouting activities have not only focused on community service, but also on understanding and appreciation of foreign cultures. They’ve not only been experiencing the food, games, crafts and lifestyle of other countries, nut they’ve been boosting their awareness about children’s health worldwide, a Girl Scout theme this year. They’ve also been seeking to improve lives of children locally.

Bell-ringing to mark Bicentennial Throughout Warren County on the afternoon of March 12, local citizens are bound to experience a phenomenon that hasn’t happened for exactly 100 years. Churches around the county will be ringing their bells at 2p.m. — to celebrate the bicentennial of the formation of Warren County. Individual citizens will also likely be seen standing on their doorsteps, ringing bells for several minutes at that time. Taking part in the sonorous celebration are: the First United Methodist Church and St. Cecilia’s Catholic Church and the First Presbyterian Church of Warrensburg; Emmanuel United Methodist and Blessed Sacrament Catholic churches of Bolton; the Horicon Baptist Church in Brant Lake, the Chestertown Methodist Church; Caldwell Presbyterian, St. James Episcopal and Sacred Heart churches in Lake George; the Pottersville United Methodist Church; the Harrisena Community and Unitarian-Universalist churches in Queensbury; St. Mary’s and the First Presbyterian churches in Glens Falls; Grace Memorial Chapel in Silver Bay; the Stony Creek Methodist Church — now the local library; the Hague Baptist, Lakeside Regional and St. Jogues Blessed Sacrament churches in Hague; and the 1881 Union Church in Adirondack — now occupied by the Horicon Historical Society.

This year Warren County will be 200 years old — and churches throughout the county will be ringing their bells at 2 p.m. Tuesday March 12 in commemoration of the county’s bicentennial. Anita Richards from Emmanuel Methodist shared the following information she received from Glens Falls Historian Wayne Wright: "The significance of ringing the bells goes back to the early 1800s when news needed to be spread fast. The best and easiest way to do that was by ringing all of the church bells. When families who lived further away from the settlements heard the bells, they would send a member of the family to find out what was going on."

Charles Wood Park from page 1

North Warren... Remembering Our Past

Dickinson said Monday the town’s current offer would be less than that sum. “We figured what we could spend on it without getting into trouble,” he said of his town board and their offer. Dusek said he had no idea what the town’s proposed price would be. But striking a purchase deal with the county would depend on the town receiving 50 percent of the parking revenue for perpetuity, Dickinson said. “If we don’t get half of the parking fees, we’re out,” he said. Plans now call for the county to develop 150 parking spaces serving Charles Wood Park by June 2014. County Public Works Superintendent Jeff Tennyson presented a tentative schedule Monday to the county supervisors regarding development of the metered parking spaces, festival space and environmental park.

Phoebe’s Knob Part I

Nursing home from page 1 Photo: Phoebe’s Knob

Phoebe’s Knob is a beautiful mountain which can be seen from Shaw Hill Rd. in Adirondack, NY and is only 3 miles from end to end. There is so much known and unknown history here as there is in all of Adirondack, a small hamlet on Schroon Lake and in the Town of Horicon. One such piece of history is that Adirondack was originally called Millbrook. The name was changed in 1872 due to duplication in the name of Post Offices. I could write and write about this wonderful place but today I am limited for space. Adirondack already boasts one book called “Reflections of the Past” by Janet Robbins Mooney for those interested. I came to “the hill” in Adirondack when I was only a small child and my parents

purchased property on Shaw Rd. to build their vacation cabin in 1950. Shaw Rd. then had an old hand laid stone wall that went along the West side of the road. Since my Dad was a “do-it-yourselfer” in every sense of that thought, the cabin was to be built on an existing stone foundation around an existing massive huge hand laid stone fireplace that remained for many years after a fire, had taken the house and buildings to the ground on this purchased property of many acres, we were told. The view of the Knob was outstanding from this location. The view of the remaining structure was not. It had become grown full of trees, brush and occupied by I think every snake in the community of Adirondack. - Edna Trumble 42090

Fifty spaces exist now, and 100 are to be added by mid2014, Dickinson said. He observed that Lake George Mayor Robert Blais had estimated that each metered parking space at the park would likely yield $900 per year. Dickinson estimated that the net parking revenue, after expenses were paid, would be $120,000, and the town’s $60,000 share would pay the principal and interest on the bond or loan to purchase the 31 percent share. Future parking revenues might be substantially higher, he said, noting that all three municipalities would likely be talking about raising existing parking fees from $1 to $2 per hour at the park. Dickinson said that the proposal for the town to buy the 31 percent share from the county would be going to a public hearing within several months. The Town of Lake George, under a previous administration, sold its 19 percent portion to the village for $210,000 after a dispute erupted about what buildings in the park’s festival space should be demolished. Since the project’s inception, Warren County has owned 62 percent of the park.
