Taxes to hold steady despite pay hikes LAKE GEORGE — Expenditures and taxes to be raised in Lake George Village are to decrease this coming fiscal year, according to a budget endorsed by the village board March 12. The 2012-13 budget, calling for appropriations of $4.07 million — a decrease of $368,259 from the amended 2011-12 budget — a modest $8,000 decrease from the adopted 2011-12 budget — is subject to a public hearing set for 7 p.m. March 26 at the village hall. The tentative Village budget calls for a tax rate of $8.48 per thousand of assessed valuation, less than a penny above the present rate. The budget will be virtually flat despite a loss of $1 million or so in assessed valuation —and pay raises for employees of 50 cents per hour. The plan calls for $1,311,883 to be raised by taxes, a reduction of approximately $8,500 from the previous year. Lake George Mayor Robert Blais, who developed the budget with other village officials, said the raises

and daughter of Renee and Chris Jensen. Valerie Jensen has been studying climate change and its effect on weather patterns — focusing on the increasingly violent prevailing weather incidents. Tornadoes, hurricanes, and tsunamis have had devastating impact to people’s lives in recent years, Jensen noted. But it was her reading about the discovery of radioactivity in rain in Massachusetts linked to Japan’s March 2011 nuclear disaster that confirmed her interest in the relationship between weather and how it effects national security, she said. This relationship between weather, climate change and national security is the topic of research she’s conducting in a college-credit Science Research course that Bolton Central is administering in conjunction with SUNY Albany. The course is overseen by BCS Science teacher Nicole Williams. Drawbridge, however, visited the Environmental Science classes of John Gaddy, in which Jensen is studying volcanic ash and other airborne pollutants, and how they effect weather and climate. Jensen is delving into this topic with classmate Aaron Shaw. Drawbridge noted that during his visit, he explored the topic of how local wind

patterns interacted with the transmission and deposition of such pollutants. Drawbridge said he has visited a number of school classrooms, and he particularly enjoyed his experience in Bolton Central — as well as Johnsburg Central last May — because the students are inquisitive and eager to learn. “I really enjoyed how interactive the class was, pushing me for more information,” he said. “That’s what makes me want to go beyond, exploring topics with them past the time limitations — These are the school visits I cherish and remember.” Jensen said she watched Drawbridge on television several months ago, heard that he was visiting schools, then she contacted him. They exchanged emails, which resulted in setting up the classroom visit. Renee Jensen said Valerie has routinely contacted various experts and science environmental professors, without any hesitation, to learn about her fields of interest. Drawbridge praised Valerie’s motivation. “She’s a very bright young lady with a huge, avid interest in science,” he said. “Looking far beyond the basics of science as she does is astounding for a high school student.”

Local ban on ‘posh’ urged in Lake George By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — A leader of a prominent local political organization has requested that the town board take action soon to enact a law to make synthetic marijuana, herbal incense and other similar substances illegal. Joanne Gavin, a founder of the Lake George Citizens Group, gave a lengthy presentation Monday March 12 on the dangers of the substances which are now freely sold through “head shops” and tobacco stores. She noted that such herbal smoking blends or “posh,” known by various trade names like “Wicked X,” can cause hallucinations, seizures, psychotic behavior, comas and has been blamed for prompting a variety of criminal actions. “We need to pass a law now to get this poison off the shelves of our area stores,” she said, noting various news reports of teenagers afflicted by serious health problems and committing crimes while under the influence of herbal incense and synthetic marijuana. Gavin called for the town board pass a local law soon banning the use or sale of such substances — while lobbying aggressively for a federal, statewide and county ban. She

said local municipalities should work together and take the lead in establishing local laws prohibiting it.
She held up local news reports, in which law enforcement officials have said perpetrators of various crimes had used herbal in-
cense. Gavin said that the recent popularity of posh, which could trigger paranoia and unpredictable behavior, was likely related to a growing concern over criminal activity locally. “A lot of people are saying they’re afraid of going out into the Village at night,” she said — referring to lake George. She said a friend’s child had used the substance, and she had heard of the harmful effects. “I have a friend who’s child was involved, and it changed his life,” she said. “It’s very, very important as citizens of this community for us to get this banned.” Officials of the regional Council for Prevention of Alcohol and Substance Abuse have said the use of “posh” is approaching epidemic levels. Gavin noted that the Village of Fort Edward was now drafting a law to ban its sale. A public hearing is set for April on the proposed Fort Edward law. Lake George Town Board member Fran Heinrich said she’d discussed the matter with staffers in U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer ’s office, as well as officials in Fort Edward. Lake George Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson indicated support for such a ban. “We will press on with this,” he said.
Warm-Up event featured nature talks, hike, savory food LAKE GEORGE — On what seemed to have been the last cold day of the winter, nearly 50 guests of all ages turned out Saturday March 10 for the Lake George Land Conservancy’s free family event, the Winter Warm Up. Children and adults participated in a live raptor presentation, got hands-on with mammal pelts, took an excursion through the woods, and enjoyed a variety of tasty soups and breads by the bonfire. “This is the fun part of my job,” said Sarah Hoffman of the Conservancy. “I love coming out to meet families, and talk about opportunities we can provide for them to enjoy the outdoors around Lake George.” The Winter Warm Up is held each March at the Lake George Recreation Center in Lake George. In addition to offering food and warmth by the fire, the event highlights the region’s wildlife and other natural resources special to the Lake George area. An up-close encounter with raptors was provided by North Country Wild Care members. Educators from the state Department of Environmental Conservation also gave presentations on mammals of the Adirondacks and invasive forest pests. Up Yonda Farm Environmental Education Center Director Matt Sprow led interpretive hikes through the Rec Center ’s trails. The Lake George Recreation Center ’s trail system provides access to the Conservancy’s 1,436-acre Berry Pond Preserve. The preserve has over four miles of hiking trails and is open to the public year-round, dawn to dusk. Trail maps are available at lglc.org or by contacting the LGLC office at 644-9673 or: shoffman@lglc.org. “We are incredibly grateful for the support of local businesses,” Hoffman said, noting that about a dozen enterprises donated soup, breads and pastries, door prizes and other supplies. Event supporters included the Adirondack Phantoms, Adirondack Pub & Brewery, Adirondack Winery, Bank Café, Bella’s Delicatessen, Fish307.com, Garnet Mine Tours, Grand Union Family Markets, Hannaford, Lake George Baking Co., Lake George Steamboat Co., Price Chopper, Rockhill Bake House, as well as individual donors and volunteers.
During Winter Warm-Up held Saturday March 10, guests hear local lore around the bonfire at the Lake George Recreation Center. The event was sponsored by the Lake George Land Conservancy.

Business Alliance proposes banners, benches in North Warren for spruce-up Worries surface over Grand Union CHESTERTOWN — Tri-Lakes Business Alliance members have proposed placing fancifully-painted public benches and hanging informative banners in upcounty hamlets to boost local commerce and enhance community pride. The suggestions were aired at the group’s bi-weekly meeting held March 9. It was proposed to hire local artists to paint benches that are set out in Chestertown each summer. Fred Holman, director of the Art in Chestertown Gallery will be contacting local artists regarding the idea. Creating and hanging year-round town banners in Pottersville, Brant Lake and Chestertown was also discussed and the group will be presenting the idea to the respective town boards for approval. The banners would be sponsored by local businesses, and if approved by the town, designs will be submitted for review and letters sent out for sponsorships. The Alliance’s sign committee continues to work with Fred Monroe and Betty Little on additional Northway signage routing traffic to Gore through the town of Chester.
Also, Alliance members are seeking the removal of the one-hour parking signs in front of the former health center on Main St. in Chestertown, as they’re no longer needed and there are concerns they are negatively affecting adjacent businesses. Also, the town of Chester will also be cutting back trees and shrubbery that is currently covering some of the current informational signs. It was noted that the Alliance will be submitting a letter to the town requesting additional lighting at the intersection of Rte. 8 and Schroon River Road.
Concerns over Grand Union With the new Price Chopper supermarket coming to Warrensburg, there is concern in town about the Chestertown Grand Union closing and leaving a void in the community. Loss of jobs and convenient local grocery shopping would result from such closure, and the Alliance is now seeking ideas for encouraging Grand Union to stay in place. Suggestions for taking advantage of the massive influx of people annually attending Americade motorcycle rally in Lake George and the World’s Largest Garage Sale were discussed by Alliance members, who suggested launching concurrent events. It was noted that an Economic Development Conference is to be held
Tuesday April 10 in North Creek’s Tannery Pond Community Center. The event features presentations by representatives from key state and local economic development programs. It was announced that the Chestertown Farmers Market is off to a successful start — with vendor applications and “Friends of the Market” donations now being received. Garnet Signs has offered to make the signs for the market at a considerable discount, and Hawazin Harijan will be the entertainment coordinator, providing the musicians, schedule and sound system. A stipend of $50 will be paid to musicians on the day they perform, with the opportunity to collect tips. There will also be several amateur days featuring North Warren students. Anyone interested in participating can contact Hawazin at libeltourism@yahoo.com. It was noted that while the Alliance has so far sparked many imaginative and progressive ideas, more people are needed to volunteer their time and talent to boost upcounty commerce. Help is needed in writing letters and attending town meetings. The next meeting of the Alliance is set for 9 a.m. Friday, March 23 at the Panther Mountain Inn in Chestertown, and all are invited to attend and participate.

Student housing from page 1 Later this summer, the college plans to hire a housing director and other staff to help facilitate the transition, college vice president Brian Durant said. “We feel there is a direct tie between learning outcomes and student housing,” he said. “By offering housing, we will be in a better position to enhance our residential instruction, athletic, and student life activities, all of which contribute to student success.” The student housing complex will feature about 400 beds, divided into suite-style living accommodations. Financed by Citizens Bank, the project is expected to cost $25.5 million. Since state regulations prohibit community colleges from owning and operating on-campus student housing, the housing will be owned and managed by Adirondack Housing Association LLC, a separate non-profit organization supported by the college and its affiliates, the Faculty-Student Association of SUNY Adirondack and the SUNY Adirondack Foundation. Such an arrangement eliminates public risk associated with on-campus housing ventures. “Having individuals actually living on site will change the dynamics of our campus,” said Barb Green, President of the Faculty-Student Association. “The FSA team is working to ensure that our campus has the proper infrastructure to accommodate on-campus living, including enhanced food service and other necessities.” As part of the student housing project, the college’s current on-campus dining facility in the college’s Student Center will be restructured and remodeled. Current plans call for a national-level food service operator to take over day-to-day operations of the facility.

Mandate relief should The really important things in life I have come first Tax cap, without help, is damaging
N
ew York’s 2 percent property tax cap and a promise to provide relief from unfunded state mandates are welcome developments for beleaguered taxpayers. After years of neglect, New York State should be applauded for finally addressing the problem of rising property taxes. This year local municipalities and school districts are being forced to make difficult choices to meet the tax cap, while the State Mandate Relief Committee holds hearings to determine what mandates should be eliminated. Unfortunately, in their haste to curry voter favor, legislators got things backward. Mandate relief should have come before the imposition of a tax cap. By instituting the 2 percent tax cap our towns, villages and schools have been forced to make drastic cuts that may not have been necessary had mandate relief come first. An example is the gymnastics program at Ticonderoga High School. The sport, which served about a dozen students, has been eliminated by the district as its seeks to reduce taxes. There has been no mandate relief at this point, but among the possible changes from the state is the elimination of each school’s “internal risk” audit. Schools are required to be audited several times a year. An “internal risk” audit is to designed to seek out fraud. School officials are confident any potential fraud can be uncovered by one of the other audits; they believe the “internal risk” audit is redundant, a waste of time and a frivolous use of taxpayer money. The “internal risk” audit in the Ticonderoga Central School District
costs $20,000 a year. That’s more than enough money to fund the gymnastics program — or a number of other programs. If the “internal risk” audit mandate is removed, that money can go back to reinstate the gymnastics program, right? No. The 2 percent tax cap does not allow for any serious budget growth. Once a program or service is cut, realistically, it’s gone forever. A municipality or school simply can’t add $20,000 to its budget and hope to stay within the constraints of the law. It’s a 2 percent tax cap while the United States inflation rate and cost of living index are both exceeding that level. If mandate relief had come before the tax cap the “internal audit” could well be history and, perhaps, Ticonderoga gymnasts could still be competing. Facing the 2 percent tax cap schools are making serious cuts — cuts that may damage academic, music, arts and sports programs. In Beekmantown there is a $3.2 million budget gap. In Ticonderoga there is a $1.7 million deficit. Schroon Lake faces a $600,000 spending gap. Major cuts are necessary to reach the state’s 2 percent tax cap, cuts that will impact students and employees for the rest of their lives. Wouldn’t it be a shame to find out, after mandate relief, that some of those cuts were unnecessary?

•100 Years Ago – April 1912• No honor among thieves Charles Maxim, a notorious Thurman desperado who finds it difficult to keep out of the meshes of the law and Charles LaPier of Stony Creek, broke into Alvin “Sam” Pasco’s house in Thurman the night of March 10, 1912 and while rummaging about accidentally discovered a choice coonskin which Sam had carefully selected from his season’s catch for the express purpose of providing himself with a piece of headgear for next winter and a mileage book, both of which were appropriated for their own use. Sam did not care about the loss of the mileage book for he is built high from the ground and does not often make use of modern conveniences like motorcars, but the loss of that treasured coonskin simply “Got his Goat” and without delay he procured a search warrant for the missing article and found it in Harry Lavine’s store in Warrensburgh, where Maxim had traded it for a lady’s skirt. Proudly shouldering the skin and muttering something about “honor among thieves” - for two weeks previous he had furnished bail for Maxim for $250 when the latter was convicted of passing a Confederate bill on an expecting person - Sam strode back to Thurman and procured a warrant for the arrest of the miscreants. The warrant was placed in the hands of Officer C.V. Kenyon and in a short time the men were brought before Justice Willard Baker, who with solemn dignity informed them of the nature of the crime. LaPier expressed a desire to plead guilty and his sentence was suspended. Maxim waived examination on a charge of Grand Larceny in the second degree and was held in $500 bail to await the action of the Grand Jury. Sam did not show a disposition to furnish bail this time and Maxim was given a cell in the Warren County Jail in Lake George.

(Note: Sam Pasco was without a doubt the most colorful character that has ever been known in this area. In April 1918 he was shot in the back and killed by members of a sheriff ’s posse who had tracked him down after he had shot and killed his cousin’s husband, Orley Eldridge. He is buried under a boulder inscribed “Alvin,” in the Pasco Cemetery, Thurman.)
March coming in like a lion Eight inches of snow fell the night of March 14, 1912 followed by sleet the next morning and finishing up the day with a severe rain storm which settled the snow considerably. The worst horror of the long winter may yet still be in store. On March 20, 1912 in the coldest part of Warrensburgh, which is Lewisville (River Street), it was 14 degrees below zero. The snow storm March 24, 1912 gave winter a new lease of life and tightened its grip on the tender young spring that is now struggling to gain a foothold. It is so bad that a postponement of the opening of the baseball season is now threatened. A note on the lighter side: Ice is slippery, but there is no sign we should call two icemen a pair of slippers.
News near and far A new specie of fish was caught recently in Lake Champlain at Port Henry. It was about 18 inches long and perfect in every particular excepting that it was equipped with four legs. “Cough up,” ordered the Nashua, N.H. police when Fred Tupper was arrested for stealing $15 from an old acquaintance. Tupper refused. A physician injected an emetic into his arm and he coughed up a ten and a five dollar bill which he had swallowed. Frank H. Hathorn has bought the Grand Union Hotel property in Saratoga Springs from the A.T. Stewart heirs of New York. The hotel was to have been torn down but it is unlikely that this will now be done. (Note:
Plans for the demolition of this grand hotel were described in the Feb. 11 edition of the Adirondack Journal. The landmark building, which sprawled over an entire business block and accommodated 2,000 guests, actually survived until the 1950s when it was torn down to make way for a Grand Union supermarket.) The village of Akin, the home of Congressman Theron Akin, has changed its name to Fort Johnson by a vote of 34 to 8 at a village election. “Doc” Akin is not so popular with his townsmen as he once was. The Court of Appeals has decided that 30,000 acres of land in the Adirondack Preserve, turned over to Cornell University during the term of Theodore Roosevelt as governor to be used for forestry experimentation, must be returned to the state. The litigation has been long continued and many eminent lawyers have been engaged in it.
Couple celebrates 101 years Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Harrington of West Stony Creek, both born on the same day, March 28, 1811, celebrated their 101st birthday anniversaries this month. The couple has one son who lives on the farm with them and he is the caretaker of “Uncle Ben” and “Aunt Harriet” as they are known to their friends. Ben Harrington is a veteran of the Civil War and has many good stories to tell. He does all the barn chores and milks ten cows twice a day. He has never been sick in bed. Harriet Harrington does not wear glasses, makes her own clothes, sews quilts and tends her garden. They are a remarkable couple. (Note…whoever owns that farm today should sell their well water for $10 a bottle!)
Deaths in the news Mrs. Mahalah Ross died March 6, 1912 at her home in Brant Lake, Horicon. She is survived by her husband, Cassius Ross and one son, John H. Wade. She was the sister of Mrs. Stewart Purvee.
Mrs. Susan Worden, 70, of Lake George, died the morning of March 8, 1912 at her home. She is survived by her husband, Isaac Worden. Burial was in the Lake George Union Cemetery. The infant daughter of Fred Rafferty of Hague died March 17, 1912. Walter Duell, 19, of Hague, died at the home of his mother, Mrs. Bert Duell March 17, 1912. His death was due to rheumatism and a weak heart. He is survived by his mother and one brother, Cecil Duell and five sisters, Irene, Kate, Edith, Dorothea and Lillian Duell. His parents once conducted the hotel at Graphite. Walter was known as a good boy and he was buried in Chestertown.
News roundabout Senator James Emerson’s bill for providing for an appropriation of $20,000 to establish a state fish hatchery in Warrensburgh on March 21, 1912 passed the Senate. A gang of 150 sons of sunny Italy arrived in Warrensburgh in special cars of the Hudson Valley Railroad Company to work for J.H. Walker on the Warrensburgh-Chestertown state road. They marched to their summer quarters in the new building near the William Woodward place in North Warrensburgh. G.W. Farrar and George Hill have the contract for building Orson R. Wilsey’s meat market on Upper Main Street, Warrensburgh. Walter Hill of North Caldwell is drawing materials. (Note: The former Wilsey’s Market building is at 3913 Main St. on the corner of First St. and houses Warren County Head Start.) Also in Warrensburgh, Walter Hill of North Caldwell is drawing materials to his lot on Oak St. adjoining the property of his brother, Bert Hill, preparatory to building a dwelling house as soon as the ground is settled.

Letters to the Editor Help save the Bolton Senior Mealsite! To the Adirondack Journal: Recent developments prompts this letter concerning the future of the Bolton Senior Mealsite. Warren County has been working hard to cut costs across the board to work out a fiscally responsible, viable county budget. They are certainly to be commended for doing so. As part of this process, however, they are having to take a hard look at all the Senior Mealsites across the county. Each site has its own set of challenges. One of the challenges the Bolton Mealsite faces is the necessity of raising revenue. Presently, it has one of the lowest revenues in the county. I urge seniors in the Bolton area to please consider attending the site often for an inexpensive and healthy meal — it’s only $3 — and some great social times. If you can’t afford $3, no one is turned away and if you can afford more than that, it would really be appreciated. Also, Seniors may also consider pledging weekly to the Mealsite to sponsor meals for someone else. Your support would be very appreciated and could help save a very important program! If you know of a shut-in that could benefit from receiving meals please let us know as we have some very dedicated, wonderful volunteers who will deliver meals to their home. The important thing is we do not want to see the site closed! We are also considering hosting some fun activities in the morning before lunch. Stay posted for more news on this. Lastly, a huge thank you to Ron Conover for his steadfast support of the site and all his hard work in trying to save the Bolton Mealsite. God bless you, Ron! The phone number for the Mealsite is 644-2368. Fr. Jim Loughren Bolton Landing
To avoid layoffs and program cuts, school personnel should amend work contracts To the Warrensburg Central School Board of Directors, school administrators and teaching staff: After much thought and prayer I felt compelled to write this letter in the hope that it would be read with compassion and open hearts. We are all aware of the difficult economic times, particularly in upstate New York. I would like to point out to each of you that the state Department of Transportation employees accepted a five-day unpaid furlough for this year and a four-day unpaid furlough for next year. In addition, we voted to pay a larger share towards our health insurance — and no pay increase for two years followed by a very modest increase the following year. The main reason for conceding to the above provisions was to prevent nearly 4,000 layoffs. Therefore, rather than leaving 20-some employees of the school district and their families without incomes — which will have far-reaching impacts on the town and region — I
would ask that each of you consider amending your current contracts in such a way that this reduction in staff, particularly the lowest paid staff, would allow them to continue their employment at the Warrensburg Central School District. I am aware that this would be a sacrifice, and even so, I would request that we also maintain our curriculum, including art, music and athletics. After all, we all want what is best for our families, school, and each student. Thank you for your attention. Alethea “Lee” VonHatten Athol
Sale of property resulted in quagmire To the Adirondack Journal: This is to clarify the information posted on the sale of property from Floyd Wells to George & Theresa Stannard. This property was turned over to Floyd in 1986 by his mother Rosie Wells Murphy. But unfortunately, the deeds had not been filed on all the changes for many, many years — and then when we started this process, unfortunately the attorney working on it

passed away and we did not turn the case over to anyone else — our big mistake. So when the paperwork was started to accomplish this sale and the names came up at the county level, Social Services took notice and sent a letter claiming they were owed $123,271 for the care of Rosie, who had passed away in 2002. We provided all the proof that we had paid taxes and looked after the land since 1986. They claim there is no statute of limitations and they were due the full amount. After 8 months of back and forth with our attorney, they still demanded the whole amount and indicated that in any attempt to fight it, we would be the loser. To make a long story short, this sale should read that Social Services gained $123,271 and Floyd Wells very little after legal fees plus taxes —over $26.000 — paid over these many years. Authorities were unwilling to make any adjustment for any of our costs all these years. Needless to say, this has caused much stress for both our family and the buyers.

Thurman Maple Days enters its second weekend THURMAN — The first day of Thurman Maple Days dawned chilly, but visitors flocked to the little mountain town’s sugar farms and sawmill to touch the heart of Adirondack springtime. The guests came from a wide geographic area, and represented all ages, sizes and shapes. And we do mean “all.” Hosts welcomed the tall and thin, the short and rotund, young and agile, old and infirm, as they always do. But this year a small visitor added a new dimension to the picture. They met Flat Stanley. Stanley, flattened by a rogue bulletin board, we are told, is the brainchild of the late author Jeff Brown. Stanley stars in a series of adventure books in which his unique shape allows him to fly out of windows and slip under doors, and, it is now clear, to brave the wilds of Thurman and its maple farms and sawmill. A couple from out of our area brought Stanley, all 8.5” by 11” of him, to see the sights at Thurman Maple Days, and they snapped his photo at each open house so they could share his adventures with a grandson living in Delaware. At Adirondack Gold Maple Farm, Cheryl Kenyon photographed the little guy — flat out crazy — dangling precariously close to the steaming evaporator, where the Kenyons’ maple sap was simmering down to syrup. At Martin’s Lumber, Stanley really threw himself into the craft demonstrations, immersing himself in handmade beads and boxes, before sauntering off to strike a flattering pose on a log, ready to ride it through the sawmill. He was whisked away in the nick of time to safely continue his new chapter of adventures with Grandma and Grandpa. But good old Flat Stanley was not the only visitor in town this weekend. Guests began arriving early, a line of hopefuls — 253 over the two days — queuing up to pack in a pile of pancakes at Valley Road Maple Farm before setting out on the tour circuit.

Frasier and family. Together they enjoyed breakfast and chatted about the special challenges facing small businesses in the region. Wood went on to each of the other sites, noting that Adirondack Gold Maple Farm’s Marc Kenyon, better known to young maple fans as “Tapper,” could be seen leading a hardy crew into the sugarbush, while Cheryl, down at the sugarhouse, offered her syrup, sugar, maple peanuts, lollipops and cookbooks, and served up piping hot chili. Over at Toad Hill Maple Farm, Flat Stanley tempted fate by cozying up to a taxidermy black bear mount. As the four tour sites closed their doors on Saturday and set about preparing for more visitors on Sunday, Thurman town hall was filling up with guests ready to enjoy the oldfashioned Thurman Maple Sugar Party, an all-you-can-eat buffet supper topped off with dessert of traditional maple jackwax. Hod Ovitt and the Warren County Ramblers
exchanged banter with the guests and entertained with toe-tapping tunes. Beckie Hitchcock, organizer of the party, spoke in glowing terms of the guests and volunteers who once more made the event a success, serving
over 140 meals to raise money for the American Cancer Society for the 53rd year. Tina Parker prepared the jack wax, a ticklish operation that requires constant vigilance. Hitchcock heaped high praise on the youngsters who attended on behalf of Warren County Youth Court. “They cleared the tables and helped set them up so we could move people through; they served beverages and jack wax, and when it was over, they helped clean up, and even swept and mopped the floor. I’d recommend them to anyone!” Looking back on the event with satisfaction, Hitchcock said one guest summed up the weekend in one sentence: “I guess this is what life in a small town is all about!” Randy Galusha of Toad Hill Maple Farm reported in on Sunday evening, “We are getting a very good run today and tonight. Best of the year so far, and it's still running. Good thing I have tomorrow off from work as I'll have to boil tomorrow morning.” Thurman Maple Days continue March 1718 and March 24-25, with 9 a.m. pancakes and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. tours, demos and small town socializing. Organizers cannot promise the reappearance of Flat Stanley, but assure you that they have plenty of maple, lumber and crafts, and that you’ll have a good time.

www.adirondackjournal.com the new town Cemetery director at 623-9718. Birds are returning early this year! Before the end of February, not only were Robins seen, but also Ted-Winged Blackbirds and some lucky folks saw a couple of Bald Eagles. Flowers are trying to start early, such as crocuses. Between Feb. 28 and March 1 we got nearly a foot of snow — our biggest ground cover this winter! Schools, even the colleges all had a day off on March 1. Our road crews worked many long hours to keep the highways open.
Trash pickup offered
Over the fence Spring is officially here on Tuesday, March 20. However, it seems early, as we really didn’t have much of winter. How many of you have started spring cleaning and sorting keepsakes in your homes? Remember to put aside items that you no longer want or need to put in the town wide sale in May. If you are not planning a sale of your own, some items can be donated to Thurman Emergency Medical Squad to help them out — or to your local church if they are having a sales table — or you can decide later which group to help out as time gets closer to the sale. Get out the fishing poles! The official opening day for fishing season is April 1, and you can obtain a license at the town clerk’s office at the town hall. For more information, call 623-4588. Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all of our Irish folks and leprechauns! How many of you single ladies proposed marriage to the man of their dreams on Feb. 29 — which used to be called Sadie Hawkins Day? This was the only day, once every four years, that was recognized and accepted for a lady to do the proposing. Chuckle for today: If you’re home alone and find you are talking to yourself; you may notice that for once no one disagrees with you or wants to argue the point! The town Cemetery Committee is now accepting new members who would like to help out with suggestions, ideas or opinions. A meeting is to be held April 11 at 5 p.m. in the town hall, and it is open to all. For more information, call

QUEENSBURY — The Warren County Sheriff ’s Office will be conducting an “Operation Safe Child” fingerprinting and identification event Saturday, March 17 from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. at the county Public Safety building at the north end of the county Municipal Complex, off Northway Exit 20. Statistics show that 34 percent of parents in the United States do not know their child's exact height, weight and eye color. And, when a child is reported missing, time can be the greatest adversary, police say. Possessing up-to-date photographs and detailed information about a child are important proactive measures that greatly as-
sist law enforcement to quickly respond to a child's disappearance, a Sheriff ’s Office representative said. The equipment used in this session employs digital fingerprinting technology and high resolution photography to produce identification cards to be stored by parents and guardians. The cards contain a child's name, identification information, and a fingerprint images . Parents have the option to store the fingerprints, basic information and photographs of children who are not missing -- in a database at Dept. of Criminal Justice Services. In the event that DCJS receives a missing child report, the fingerprints of that child are included in a special search file and compared against all incoming fingerprints submitted to the agency.

St. Patty’s Day from page 1 Gaelic music, Irish food, and a beer garden outside Duffy’s Tavern. As in 2011, Lower Amherst St. will be blocked off for the crowd to enjoy the music and festivities outdoors. For children, activities include bounce houses, pony rides, face painting, games and ATV excursions. On Saturday, the festivities will be ongoing from 10 a.m. to at least 8 p.m., and on Sunday, the celebration kicks off with the new St. Patrick’s Day parade, and continues until 6 or 7 p.m. The parade is to feature several Irish bands, with a total of 40 parade units — both local and from afar. The musical offerings include the Searson band — three sisters from Canada singing Gaelic-style tunes from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday. Erin, Heather and Colleen Searson play a variety of instruments as well as being accomplished step dancers. The group — acclaimed by musicians, critics and the public — has performed in Europe as well as Canada and the U.S, prompting rave reviews. Also on Sunday, the group Hoosier Paddy will be performing. Saturday’s lineup includes John Eisenhart and Liam O’Tainer — both playing Irish music. Saturday also features the classic rock of Bratt Pack and Even the Odd band. Irish food to be available includes Irish corned beef and cabbage dinners, Reuben sandwiches and Irish stew, as well as Irish sausage, burgers and hot dogs off the outside grill. Adult games are to be featured, whether it’s the keg-tossing competition, or the traditional “swinging of the Haggis.” Children are sure to enjoy searching for gold coins hidden by local leprechauns
Lake George taxes from page 1 reflected an effort to bring employee compensation up to the level of similar positions in the private sector. Revenues for the village, which include parking receipts of $545,000 are estimated to total $2,520,849 — or more than half of the funds needed to run the Village. Sales tax revenues for the village are estimated at $525,000, alongside Warren Count Occupancy tax receipts of $111,000. Health care premiums have risen 7.56 percent for employees and retirees an increase that amounts to $332,600, but employees’ contributions are to increase one percent this year this year under a previous agreement. “The past six years, with little or no increase in assessed valuation the Village tax rate has increased approximately one percent,” Blais said in a prepared statement. “During this time the Village has completed several capital projects that has improved or upgraded our infrastructure. We have maintained a healthy fund balance, underspent our budgets and increased our bond rating to A-,” the Mayor added, praising the work of Clerk-Treasurer Darlene Gunther and Public Works Superintendent David Harrington for being primarily responsible for the flat budget.

in the yard of the old County Courthouse. Last but not least, there will be an informal dog show at 2 p.m. Sunday, and dogs with their owners will be introduced onstage. In this friendly competition, costumes and tricks are encouraged, event organizer Linda Duffy said. The idea for a St. Patrick’s Day celebration germinated over a year ago, when Dan Elkin of Bella’s Deli off Amherst St. and Duffy had a conversation, she said. “While I’ve been wanting to have a St. Patrick’s Day parade for about five years, Dan said he was surprised that Lake George didn’t have an Irish celebration — and we started planning one,” Duffy said. Elkin, Duffy, and Jane Schmidt of the Bank Cafe and Pat Kane of Fake at the Lake tattoo shop then started planning the festivities. Last year ’s celebration prompted such a positive response that activities were expanded this year, she said. Grand Marshal for the parade is James “Tom” Burke, the owner of a local construction firm, who grew up in Ireland. Monday, Duffy expressed appreciation to event sponsors Molly Malone’s Irish Gifts, Lake George Bakery, Bella’s Deli, Judd’s Tavern, Giuseppe’s Restaurant, From Bagels to Burgers, Shaughnessy’s Old Log Inn, Pablo’s Burrito Cantina, Adirondack Brew Pub, Giovanna’s at The Georgian, Super 8 Motel, Mario’s Restaurant, The Inn of Lake George, Riley’s T-Shirts, Duffy’s Tavern, Bank Cafe, Fake at the Lake, Duffy’s Tavern, Lake George Chamber of Commerce, Town and Village of Lake George, and Warren County Tourism Department. With 63-degree weather forecast for the weekend, Linda Duffy predicted that quite a crowd will be enjoying the event. “It’s a fun festival to kick off spring,” she said noting that for more than a generation, Sham-Rock the Block is the first and only public Irish festivities to be held in Warren County.
