Cuomo launches probe into Swing into Spring green group’s land deals By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com ALBANY — The region’s largest environmental organization, the Nature Conservancy, is now under the microscope of state Attorney General Andrew Cuomo. Following a New York Post article this week detailing that the state overpaid for forest preserve lands primarily in the Adirondacks, Cuomo has opened a formal investigation into how the Nature Conservancy values its massive holdings and who the $3.5 billion green group influences in Albany. Office of the Attorney General officials said Wednesday that Gov. David Paterson requested the inquiry after the
Adorned with headlines accusing the state of an unsavory deal, the New York Post detailed the Nature Conservancy selling Adirondack land to the state — at taxpayer expense — at a 57 percent profit during tough economic times. Yes, that’s Fred Monroe of Chestertown prominently pictured — as Adirondack Park Local Government Review Board Chairman, he brought the issue to the attention of Post Editor Frederic Dicker.

Elizabeth Nash benefit for Cystic Fibrosis set NORTH CREEK — The Elizabeth Nash Foundation is holding its fifth annual benefit dinner Sunday April 25 in the Great Room of the Copperfield Inn, North Creek. All of the $30 per person donation goes directly to the foundation, established by Nash’s family to honor and perpetuate Liz’s life-long example of giving and to continue her fight against Cystic Fibrosis. This year ’s dinner features a French theme, and includes the culinary creations of Copperfield Inn Executive Chef Stephen Topper. Music during the social hour from 3 to 4 p.m. and during dinner will be provided by Tim Wechgelaer. Dinner will be served at 4p.m. followed by an auction of many novel donated items. For more information see www.elizabethnashfoundation.org. The benefit dinner is coordinated by Nancy and Joel Beaudin. Reservations by April 20would be appreciated as space is limited. Call Nancy Beaudin at 251-2240 to place reservations or for details. Nash was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at the age of three, and was expected to live only into her teens. Bright and ambitious, she persevered in her academic pursuits and later career. Liz attended Johnsburg Central School through 1984 and pursuing college studies in Molecular Genetics, earning a Ph.D in Human Genetics . She worked as a CF researcher at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the University of California San Francisco. She was a valued scientist at the Cystic Fibrosis Research Institute of Mountain View, Calif. and served as a mentor for teens with CF. Liz authored many scientific studies and held three patents in the use of robotics in genetic research along with participating in re- search for the Human Genome Project. As Liz’s last act of research on behalf of Cystic Fibrosis she donated her lungs to the CF Research Center at Stanford University Hospital. Liz died Feb. 22, 2003 a few days shy of her 33rd birthday. Her passion for life and helping others are considered an inspiration to many, event organizers said.

Probe From page 1 New York Post reported the Conservancy recently reaped a 57 percent profit on land sold to the state that it had only owned for three years. And, that sale came during a time land values fell considerably. In a letter to Cuomo, Paterson noted that no evidence of legal wrongdoing has surfaced, but he did authorize the Attorney General to probe the value assessment methodology employed in the sale and the sway the Conservancy wields over Albany power brokers. “If you discover evidence of such criminality that warrants the expansion of this referral, we will consider expanding the scope to grant you that additional authority,” Paterson wrote. Cuomo’s spokesman said the probe also extends into the office of state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli, who holds the state’s purse strings. In 2008, the state bought a 20,000 acre Clinton County tract from the Nature Conservancy for $10 million, a $3.7 million increase over what the green group paid in 2005. Yet, according to the state Office of Real Property, property values in the region only increased 15 percent over that time period. The green group is currently trying to sell another 58,000 acres of central Adirondack land to the state. It’s part of a larger 150,000 acre tract the organization bought from FinchPruyn Paper for $110 million in 2007.
Last year, the conservancy sold 92,000 acres to the Danish pension fund ATP Timberland Invest. In a recent interview, Nature Conservancy Executive Director Mike Carr and spokeswoman Connie Prickett said there’s often a markup associated to a land sale to the state. But they stressed the additional costs reflect not only rising property values, but also the time and money the organization invests in the land prior to the sale. “We have to get in and out of a project whole, but that’s not a profit,” Carr said. “We do leave millions of dollars in these projects,” Prickett added. Although the scope of the current investigation is limited to the single transaction, local officials have decried the conservancy’s markup policy for years. Adirondack Park Local Government Review Board Executive Director Fred Monroe said it appears state officials pay the extra amount to gain the favor of powerful environmentalists. “I believe there is a close relationship between the Nature Conservancy and the DEC. They were paid their carrying costs for the time they held the property for the state,” Monroe said. “It always seemed improper that the Conservancy was acting as a purchasing agent for the state and having all of their costs covered. That’s not an arms-length deal.” Last month, local officials panned pleas from environmentalists to forgo their opposition to state land acquisition.

6 - ADIRONDACK JOURNAL • OPINION
•100 Years Ago – April, 1910• The sweet smell of spring
S
pring has come, sure, pop! Ten inmates of the Warren County home, who spent the winter there, left for parts unknown as soon as the warm weather ar-
rived. Three inches of snow fell Friday, April 8, 1909, but it was soon gone. Halley’s Comet can now be seen before sunrise. (Note…the most famous of all comets, it was named for Edmund Halley. Last seen in 1986, it will return in 2062.)
Buicks collide, tempers flare Two Buick automobiles had quite a thrilling collision at French Mountain on Sunday afternoon, April 24, 1910. The smaller machine, driven by its owner, George W. Dickinson of Warrensburgh, was run into by a large Buick owned and operated by a Mr. Spratt, of Saratoga Springs. The Dickinsons and their daughter, Mrs. Henry Bertrand, were coming home from Glens Falls at a 15-mileper-hour clip. As they approached the Halfway House the Spratt auto had just caught its first speed as it came out from a string of machines lined up on the north side of the hotel. But instead of making a short turn down the road, Mr. Spratt was carelessly engaged in handling his levers and ran diagonally across the highway and dashed into the local auto which Mr. Dickinson had driven to the farther side of the road. The collision of the machines was inevitable. Mrs. Bertrand, in the excitement, struck her chest against the machine and suffered a slight nervous shock. She was brought home by Bertram E. Murray who just chanced to be at the Halfway House with his auto. Mr. and Mrs. Dickinson came up to Warrensburgh on the trolley. As the steering gear of their machine had been sprung and the mud guards smashed, the car was sent to Glens Falls for repairs. The steering knuckle of the Saratoga machine was also sprung, but was fixed on the spot and Mr. Spratt drove homeward. (Note: The famous old Halfway House, run for many years by proprietor George Brown, was on the west side of route 9 in today’s Million Dollar Half Mile, directly facing the entrance to the Fort Ann road. There is a shoe store located there now. The Warren County fairgrounds stood just south of it until 1869 when the fairgrounds were relocated. Mrs. Henry Bertrand was a college-educated pharmacist who lived on Elm St. Her husband, Henry Bertrand and her father, George Dickinson ran the local drug store here for many years. The first time I met “Duke” Bertrand, many years ago, he kissed my hand, old world style. He was a gallant gentleman.)
Murder trials and suicides The trial of George Hoogbone, of Saratoga, accused of murdering Irving Smith of that village last December, 1909, was begun in the court house at Ballston on April 11,
1910. A plea of self-defense will be made by Hoogbone although this may be changed to a plea of insanity. In another matter, Mrs. Sarah Palmer, 58, of Fort Ann, committed suicide on Monday, April 11, 1910 by drowning herself in a well in the town of Kingsbury where she had been employed by A.K. Cross Jr., as a domestic. The woman has acted in an unusual manner recently and it is surmised that she was insane. One son, William Palmer survives.
Lake George centennial approaching The town of Caldwell and the Presbyterian Church of Lake George are making elaborate arrangements for the joint centennial celebration to be held at Lake George this summer. The celebration will be on a gigantic scale to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the incorporation of the Town of Caldwell and the First Presbyterian Church and will be observed in a manner fitting to the success that both have enjoyed in their century of their existence. A varied program is planned for mid-August 1910, which will include water and land sports, with a field day.
The changing times The old homestead residence of Lewis Thomson, corner of Main and Second streets, is being moved by W.F. Woodward on to a lot on Thomson Ave., Warrensburgh. (Note: Ben Emerson, his wife, Polly and their son, Albert, 8, came from New Hampshire in 1837 to Warrensburgh. They had a home and store on the lawn of what is now the Cornerstone Victorian bed and breakfast on the corner of Main and Second streets. Lewis Thomson and his family later lived in the house until his big new mansion, in later years called the Rice Guest House, was completed in 1906. In 1910 Thomson had both buildings moved to a new street on the back of his property which he named Pearl St. after his daughter. He later changed the name to Thomson St. in honor of Lewis Thomson Rice, his grandson who died in 1983. The Ben Emerson store is today on the corner and was once the home of the late Pat Bisbee. The Emerson home is two houses north and was once the home of the late Ken Sprague.)
A note of wisdom If every individual in Warrensburgh cleans up his own premises and respects his neighbor ’s rights, avoiding all ill feeling, this will vastly improve the appearance of our streets and yards. With a little effort on the part of each one, Warrensburgh will become a garden spot. (Note…I have always believed that good neighbors are more valuable than gold and to have good neighbors, you must be one yourself. Neighbors will come to your aid in case of hardship — not the government — and your neighbors and fellow townspeople are the ones who deserve your love and respect which will be returned to you tenfold.)
Murphy’s votes will cost in higher taxes, jobs lost

To the editor: I was astounded to read letters to the editor thanking Congressman Murphy for destroying the best health care in the world, raising our taxes, causing us to wait in line for medical care, add billions to our $14 trillion deficit. Murphy didn’t flip flop, his vote was assured. Murphy must go. He is part of the problem along with the rest of the neo-communist Democrats. Next is “cap and trade”— the cost to every family will be $1,800 or more. Also, the government will tell you where to set your thermostat. and how much gasoline to use, etc. A billion dollars will circle the globe two and a half times, we pay interest to China twice that each month. Now suppose China says no more loans, then what Mr. Murphy? Then comes citizenship for the 20 million illegal aliens, that will get free medical care. Thanks, Mr. Murphy. Murphy is part of the problem — he must go. Unemployment stands at 10 percent, or higher, depending on how you figure it. The only new jobs are federal ones. We’ve already lost 8 million private-sector jobs, Then consider we’re facing higher taxes, “Obama Care,” new environmental restrictions, and the stimulus package — all job killers. Thank Obama and Murphy — more businesses will now flee America. This we can believe in. Seizing control of the media is the first step of every totalitarian regime-freedom of speech, freedom to protest our government is now under attack by Obama and his lackeys in the Democratic party. Soft on national defense (nuclear) they suck up to our sworn enemies, they grant no Social Security increase for our seniors for years 2010-11 — thanks, Murphy! They insult Israel, the only country in the Middle East we can rely on — shame! Democrats should read more newspapers and be better informed, forget the funny sheets and what the “air heads” in Hollywood are doing. Read and think. Have a nice day. Hugh A. Sonner Sr. Corinth, NY P.S.: I read every word on the Turning Back the Pages by Jean Hadden!
SATURDAY April 17, 2010
Masonic temple plans to build W.E. Lawrence, a Glens Falls architect was in Warrensburgh, April 27, 1910, looking over the proposed new quarters of Warrensburgh Lodge F. and A.M. in the Woodward block. The new rooms will be handsomely appointed and modernly equipped. (Note…this brick building was destroyed by arson several years ago. A beautiful new building today stands in its place.)
Deaths in the news Clark Baker, 68, a former resident of Warrensburgh, died April 24, 1910 in Gansevoort of a complication of diseases. He leaves a widow and four sons, Willis, Charles, Cassius and Bertie Baker. He was buried in Warrensburgh. Andrew D. Tripp, 69, died Sunday, April 24, 1910 at his home in Darrowsville. He is survived by a widow, a daughter, Mrs. Robert Fox and a son, Berton Tripp, all of Darrowsville. He was buried in the Darrowsville Cemetery, the Rev. S.C. Fox officiating.
News roundabout The census count began April 15, 1910. Cleaning house is the order of the day nowadays. The log drive with Jack Donahue in charge is camping at Blue Ledge, North River. Herbert and Fred Rounds of North Thurman to work April 11, 1910 on the river drive. Laurence Pratt is building a new house in Warrensburgh on the lot he purchased last fall (1909) from Harry Petteys on Horicon Ave. C.H. Harris has moved into Melvin Kenyon’s house in Stony Creek. Lewis Smith and Miss Mary Branch, both of Warrensburgh, were married Monday, April 25, 1910, by the Rev. E.M. Parrott at the rectory of St. James’ Church, Lake George. A son, Theron N. Drake, was born to Mr. and Mrs. William Drake at the Wayside Inn, North Creek. William H. Kettenbach is in New York City purchasing spring goods for his store in Chestertown. Rice & Weller Brothers run a meat cart from Riverbank to Warrensburgh on Tuesday of each week. Herbert Stanley of Riparius lost a valuable cow. In Warrensburgh Warren Bennett has bought Frank E. White’s meat market in Lewisville (part of River St.) Ray Rooney is setting up new telephone poles between Warrensburgh village and the Warren County Home. It is feared some evil-minded person has been putting out poison for dogs. Master Arthur Perry of Stony Creek had to part with his nice little black Teddy dog. We know of no reason why the boy should have been the victim of some heartless wretch. Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 623-2210
APA throttles local economies To the editor: Periodically, from our representatives in the state Legislature, he are subject to a deluge of political rhetoric about solutions that should be undertaken to ease the depressive economic conditions of the Adirondacks where a great many inhabitants live below the so-called poverty level. Nothing has been done for any real effect; about the only effect of the Adirondack Park Agency with its policy of confiscation through regulation. Being awash in bureaucracy and lawsuits — and quashing business opportunities — destroying real estate businesses by their own definition of wetland and over-proximity to and leveling outrageous fines that are unpayable, creates a ridiculous paradox. It is impossible to ignore that the greatest deterrent to economic relief for the Adirondacks in the APA. Why is it that the state legislators ignore this glaring paradox? Harland Stubing Newcomb
Daily price boost is unfair To the editor: What kind of newspaper would double the price of their paper and claim they needed to do so because people were reading it for free on the Internet? Why should the customers buying the paper be penalized because the paper is being given away free on the Internet? Let the freeloaders pay for their paper too. A front-page advertisement in the same paper states: Get home delivery for old price. Only catch is rural route drivers pick who and where they deliver. In conclusion, I think The Post-Star stinks.

BOLTON LANDING • ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 7
‘Chrissy’s Chairs’ return to Bolton By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com
BOLTON LANDING — Last summer, residents and visitors encountered fancifully painted Adirondack chairs perched near storefronts throughout town. The chairs were on display prior to being auctioned off in a late-August event. The chairs piqued interest among folks strolling along sidewalks in town, and provided a festive, folk-art atmosphere — and this year, the decorative chairs are scheduled to return. The 2009 auction of the chairs, held on behalf of the Christine Nicole Perry Trust at Sweet Pea Farm Perennials & Art Gallery, raised $13,000 was raised for High Peaks Hospice.
The trust is run by Christine’s parents, Mark and Linda Perry, owners of Sweet Pea Farm. Christine died several years ago at a young age in an out-of state automobile crash. Since it was launched, the foundation bearing Christine’s name has awarded about $30,000 to various community service causes and scholarships at Bolton High School. Last year ’s array of Adirondack chairs and the ensuing auction prompted other communities to follow suit. This year in Bolton, 25 artists will be transforming Adirondack Chairs into pieces of art. Once again the trust will be donating the proceeds to High Peaks Hospice. This year, the decorated items include a mix of fullsized chairs, child-sized chairs and a few full-sized rocking chairs.
Most of last year ’s artists are again participating, and they joined by some new talent. The 2010 roster of artists includes Laura Von Rosk, Vivian Simonson, Michelle Niedermeyer, Joyce Cleveland, JoAnn Kohr Smith, Nancy Crook Rhodes, Kate Van Steenhuyse, Ryan Gates, Lisa Hall, Leslie Heck, Diane Burk, Marianne Ganter, Don Russell, Janine Thomas, Pauline O'Connell, Mary Jean Smith, Tanya Sawn, Ken Wheeler, Jen Montgomery, Jim Denne, Wauneata Waller, and Eric Tobin. The Perrys and their volunteer help will be hosting a Preview Reception on May 29 at Sweet Pea Farm. The 2010 auction and barbecue event is scheduled for Aug. 21 at the farm. This year, online bidding will be available for those that can’t attend the auction. For details, visit www.chrissysfund.com or call 644-3020.
will be no other testing beyond the end of April. The sooner applicants take and pass the test, the sooner they can be hired. A background check will be conducted after the exam.
Among the 25 artist-decorated chairs to be on display this summer in Bolton Landing before they are auctioned off for charity is this fanciful creation by area artist Nancy Crook Rhodes.
Help keep Bolton beautiful The Bolton Landing Business Association has set a date for their Spring street cleaning. All those interested in helping are welcome to meet at 9 a.m. Tuesday April 20 at McDonald Real Estate Professionals to assist in planning.

8 - ADIRONDACK JOURNAL • THURMAN
SATURDAY April 17, 2010
Brandy Baker who celebrated on April 8. Happy Anniversary wishes go out this week on April 19 to both David and Mary Robinson and Terry and Nancy Beadnell — the Beadnells for 35 years — then to Bob and Sue Baker on April 21, and Jack and Claudette Schloss on April 24.
April fools? Nope, a wacky local fundraiser
Over the fence
S
ure enough it was April 1 when motorists through Thurman and homeowners began seeing pink flamingos on their lawns. It was not a prank, but the start of a fundraising effort by the Thurman Cemetery Committee. These pink flamingos seemed to travel around quite a lot from lawn to lawn, road to road for a few days at the beginning of April, but no one seemed to see them flying or moving to the new locations! The flamingos are breaking up into two flocks we hear; so watch for them in your own neighborhood.
Emergency squad boosts its response rate Good news from Town Supervisor Red Pitkin: our local emergency squad was out on three calls at the beginning of the month, and seem to be doing a good job of keeping our Thurman response right here in town. As you know, the town board has been concerned that in the last few months, our squad’s response tally has fallen sharply, and the emergency calls have been picked up by the Warrensburg ambulances. But now, it looks like the situation is turning around. Let’s hope this trend continues.
Special days up Thurman way Birthday greetings go out to Lewis Gallup, Betty Srock, and William Seeley on April 17; to Robert Vopleus, Wanda Vopleus, Bert Wilde, and Sue Stoddard on April 18; to Diane Strobeck, Barb Keene, Norma Galusha, Charlotte Wood, Colleen Dempsey, and Charlie Metzger on April 19; to Margaret Vice on April 21, and to Robin Croissant and Eileen Baker who celebrate on April 22; and to Marc Kenyon, Jeremy Ward and Harold Monroe on April 23. A happy belated birthday wish is out to
A gripe came in concerning the Emergency Medical Services dilemma and town board meeting held on Sunday March 28 to air the issue — because the meeting was not announced in the local newspapers. The caller asked if public meetings are not being published a few days ahead of the actual meeting as they should be, not only by law, but to alert citizens so they can offer their viewpoints and participate in local government. March went out like lion. Snow fell on March 29 and 30 but it soon melted, high winds and downed trees knocked out power for about four hours on March 29, and our daytime highs stayed in the thirties. But the week before we were spoiled with 60 degrees! Complaints are coming in on the 2010 census forms not being filled out and sent in, but a few residents did receive forms. No on has called with a fish story yet. Did anyone go out when the season opened April 1? Sympathy goes out to the family of Isabelle Knoll who passed away at home last week.
Can you help with food deliveries? The Gleaning food distribution program will be held at the town hall at 10 a.m. Tuesday April 20. At this time, a couple of helpers are needed to help deliver and also to assist with the Meals on Wheels program. Contact Red Pitkin at 623-9649 and let him know if you can help. The Gleaning volunteering would be two times each month, and the Meals on Wheels duty would be once per week.
Area activities and events scheduled The Warrensburg Elementary School will be holding Kindergarten screenings on April
Fort William Henry Hotel & Conference Ctr.
Youngsters line up for an Easter bonnet contest held recently in Thurman. Easter headwear was judged for creativity in conjunction with a holiday party held at the Thurman Town Hall. The event included traditional egg coloring and hunting for hidden eggs. 21 and 22 at the elementary school from 8:15 to 2 p.m. Children who will be 5 years of age on or before Dec. 1 will be eligible. Those with questions, call 623-9747. The Kenyontown Methodist Church will have a Fellowship Dinner at 7 p.m. Wednesday April 21 at the church on Valley Rd. The public is invited to bring a covered dish and join in with their neighbors and friends. For more information, call 623-3940. The Thurman emergency squad will have a meeting at 6 p.m. Sunday April 18 in the High St. squad building. The meetings are open to the public, and new volunteers are always in need, throughout the community. The town of Thurman holds two meetings this week, and both are on Tuesday April 20. If you want to know where taxpayer money goes, this is revealed in the fiscal meeting at 6:30 p.m. The regular monthly meeting, where you get your questions answered about town government operations, starts at 7 p.m. Both meetings are held at the town hall. The Sugar Loaf Mountain Seniors club will have a covered dish dinner at the town hall at 6 p.m. Wednesday April 21. The group will be choosing some trips that would be interesting to all. The seniors welcome anyone wishing to join the group to stop by the meeting or call 623-9425 for details.

Easter celebration popular in Thurman The town hall was packed with excited children and their parents Saturday April 3 at the youth commission’s annual Easter egg hunt. Over 600 eggs were hidden, and the children wore not only Easter outfits, but wide smiles as they grabbed a basket and ran around searching for these eggs. Children came from near and far, some from Queensbury, North Creek, Pottersville, Stony Creek, and Johnsburg, just to name a few area towns. The Easter Bonnet contest winners were Calista Steves, Audrey Steves and Elizabeth Schumek, who who won some very nice prizes. Their hats or bonnets were all original and handmade. Maria Ligon, who planned this special day for children, expresses special thanks to those who stepped up to help: Jed and Lisa Quinn, Don and Nancy Decker, Bruce Tvrdik, Marilyn Hoy Youngblood, Nancy Beadnell, Jim Ligon, and to various parents who assisted.

SATURDAY April 17, 2010
Bolton Landing Coach hopes brains, muscle will make the difference By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com BOLTON — In close baseball games, singular split-second decisions by base-runners and infielders can make the difference between victory and defeat. Bolton Baseball Coach Mark Andrejkovics, facing a youthful team in his 11th season, says heÕ ll be relying both on his players’ brain cells and fast synapses to make the games go the right way in 2010. After losing most of their experienced pitchers after a solid 6-4 season in 2009, Andrejkovics said this year required some rebuilding. But maybe he’s sounding hesitant to bluff the competition — the Eagles have a deep pitching staff, with three players ready to step up and several more who can serve as backup, Andrejkovics said. Heading off the pitching roster are Senior Dan Brown, ace Sophomore Mitchell Jordan, and Tyler Calzada, also a 10th grader. Standouts include Jacob Nittmann, catcher and cleanup hitter. “The kids work very hard every practice, every game, to get better,” he said. “They are a very intelligent team.” The hard work has been paying off, he said, as the they’ve been improving fast, despite limited practice time. Defensively, the Eagles’ infield is already strong. Andrejkovics said that consistent slugging will perhaps be the determining factor, and that has been a focus of practices so far during 2010. “Batting will be the key for us,” he said. “It looks like we can hit the ball well from the top of the lineup to the bottom,” he said, mentioning that he expects plenty of hits from all of his players, beyond the three at the top of the order, proven sluggers Tyler Calzada, Dan Brown and Jacob Nittmann.

Bolton Landing Talented athletes boost hopes for BCS softball By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com BOLTON LANDING — A talented pitcher-catcher combination and an infield with strong defensive skills has prompted local sports observers to forecast a solid 2010 season for the Bolton High School Varsity Softball Team. Anchoring the team this year is standout athlete Taylor Cronquist, the team’s catcher, who is a speedy base-runner, and is known to anticipate play action well. “Taylor’s exceptional on both defense and offense,” Coach Melanie Persons said. “She has a great softball sense, she keeps the infield tight and calls really good plays — she keeps everyone on the ball.” Persons said she expects a strong collaborative effort on defense for her squad to recapture their winning ways of past years. In 2007, Bolton won the Mountain Valley Athletic Conference’s southern Division and competed deep into the Section VII tournament. In 2009, the Eagles were competitive at 5-8 overall. Cronquist, a Senior, will be backed up by Senior shortstop Taylor Barrack, Persons said.. “Taylor is another exceptional player,” Persons said. “She’s a vacuum at short stop — she never lets anything get by her.” Among others playing key roles on defense will be Sophomore Rosie Denne at first base and Junior Emma Cady at third, replacing talented BCS graduates Amanda Moffitt and Katie Bliley, respectively. “Emma’s a solid player and Rosie’s got a good stretch,” Persons said. The coach said she’s also anticipating good action from Junior Charlotte Caldwell at second base. “Charlotte’s always on top of things, always ready for the play,” Persons said. “She’s the team chatterbox and keeps the team going.” One player who the coach has few words about, is her own daughter, Tori Persons, who has lots of skill and experience, although she’s merely a Sophomore.

But local sports fans know she will produce, capturing more victories this year after she’s boosted her speed and accuracy from attending several pitching clinics, and gained some muscle since last year. Persons said she indeed has high expectations of Tori. “She’s had a ton of growth since last season, and she’s coming into her own now,” the coach said. “Tori’s confidence is through
the roof — and she and Taylor now have a nice groove going.” As long as all the players concentrate on solid hitting to back up the core group of strong hitters, the team will likely do quite well this year, Persons said. “No question, the games will be fun to watch,” she said.

Wa r rensbu rg Enthusiastic Burghers have all the elements for success By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Several weeks ago, a dozen male high school athletes shoveled snow together, tossing heavy, soggy slush off their baseball practice field so they could start playing sooner. Warrensburg Varsity Baseball Coach Rex Reynolds said the dedication and enthusiasm the players demonstrated in shoveling snow was a compelling indication this season would be a competitive one for the 2010 Warrensburg Central Varsity Baseball Team. “The guys were excited to get started as early as possible,” he said. “Now, they like to be on the field whenever they can — it’s even tough to get them to quit practice.” This enthusiasm, Reynolds said, has potential to develop the teamwork and skills necessary for a winning season, he said. “We’ve got a roster of players, especially the Seniors, who are anxious to play and achieve success,” he said.

Last year, Warrensburg tallied an impressive season, ending up 10-4 in the Adirondack League’s Western division, runner up to Lake George. It was a tough battle, but the tenacious, talented 2009 Burgher team pulled it off. This year, the team has seven seasoned Seniors: Brendan Frye, Mike Perrone, Jason Power, Ben Nicols, Donovan Santisteban, Dante Siletti, and Tyler Springer. A leading pitcher for the team, Brendan Frye, is a standout athlete, having served as football quarterback and the
basketball team’s top scorer. Shortstop and pitcher Mike Perrone is also top notch in various sports as is Jason Power and the rest of the Senior crew. This experience — and the chemistry they’ve developed playing on various teams — will serve them well during this season, Reynolds said. This team has already performed well, demonstrating a steely defense and some offensive power.

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — For decades, Warrensburg has enjoyed a solid reputation for competitive softball teams. The Burghers first raised the bar in the mid-1980s by introducing competitive play and raising standards. Just ask Jill Toney, who was a standout, and is now coach at Johnsburg Central. Or have a chat with Amy Monroe Langworthy, who’s now the local elementary school principal. Then in the mid-1990s, it was Burgher Sara Rumrill’s blistering speed that confounded opponents and prompted dozens of other players since to attend pitching camps. Rumrill and her allies, including the unsurpassed Burgher catch-

er Kim Lamy, set new records and expectations not only for the school, but for athletes all over the region, as they took Warrensburg to the state championship finals for three successive years. At the helm of the softball teams achieving such legendary success has been Coach Mary ann Bump, who has been the Burger mentor for 26 seasons. A declining enrollment locally has meant a smaller pool of athletes, and tougher competition. But regardless of these obstacles, each year, Bump assesses the available talent, and inspires her players to perform at their very best. Last year, the Burghers were 7-7 in the Adirondack League, and were situated in the middle of the team rankings. This year, Bump said her team is aiming to boost that record.

The Burghers are blessed with substantial versatility this year, Bump said. “We’ve got a lot of players that are talented enough to play in various positions,” she said. “We’ve got a very versatile team.” She said she is expecting a strong chemistry to develop in the players, which include some very talented athletes. “The kids will do well this year,” she said.

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Stellar teams leave a two-edged sword behind them when they graduate — on one hand, the burden of big shoes and a legend to live up to, but also the blessing of high standards and self-expectations which propel the new players to lofty accomplishments. The 2010 Lake George Varsity Baseball team has this legacy to deal with, after the graduation of the 2009 squad that generated lasting memories for area sports fans because of the players’ character, athleticism and chemistry. That combination led to their stunning comeback victory in June 2009 against Fort Ann to capture the Adirondack League crown. Headliners on this team were Adirondack League CoMVPs Jake Nelson and Peter Gaibrois — Nelson alone hit 22 home runs over his last two seasons. Those two were backed up by Ryan Lynch, J.D. DeWaard and other top talent. Last year ’s star-studded season, however, has prompted

this year ’s predicament — 10 of the 2009 players graduated. This year ’s squad has this legacy of high standards and a legend to live up to, and it will take a lot of work for the squad to pick up where the 2009 team left off, coach Erik Hoover said. “We have a lot of holes to fill,” he said, noting the 2010 team has merely one Senior aboard. “This year, we really have a changing of the guard.” The new players should be aware that the 2010 Warrior squad’s big challenge is likely to be seen by competing teams as an opportunity. “Other teams are probably licking their chops,” Hoover said. “And we’ve got to play hard, and not expect the League to take pity on us.” The returning players and new recruits are not getting ready to take up the challenge of continuing the Warrior ’s winning tradition, Hoover said. “We may have some deep holes to fill, but we have some young athletes that really want to play ball,” Hoover said. “And a lot of the guys are accepting their new roles well.” Among those returners from the 2009 team are J.D. Jenkins — the new starting pitcher — and Jack Clark, who replaces Jake Nelson as catcher. Clark will also be throwing at the mound and is expected to be an offensive threat as well, Hoover said. “Jack might not hit 11 home runs per season like Jake did, but he swings the ball well, with power,” he said. Other leading hitters are likely to be two Freshmen — Willy Blunt who

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — There’s no doubt, the stars are aligned for a huge Lake George softball season. The Warriors have a stellar lineup, with three four-year Varsity players including All-Star pitcher Katelyn Callahan, who has blistering speed and an outstanding ability to work the corners of the strike zone. The other four-year athletes, Taylor Dawson and Sarah Anderson, are both great hitters and anchor infield players. Taylor Dawson just may be the most talented first base player in the area, local sports fans say. This team, featuring no less than seven Seniors, have area sports fans pumped up for an exciting season, perhaps one for the record books. Coach Kelly Collins is more low-key about the season’s prospects. “We have a really experienced team, and we have the makings
to have a successful season,” she said. Callahan has been sharpening her formidable skills in the offseason: this past year, she played with a Long Island travel team. Collins said this additional experience means she’s expanded her variety of pitches and has boosted her consistency, which fans observe has been solid anyway. Callahan, by the way, is headed for UConn this fall. She and experienced Junior catcher Nicole Bureau have together captured plenty of headlines with their dominance of the game. Another player to watch will be Senior Rachael Pliscovsky, who is a quick base runner and is expected to be a top producer offensively. Each year during her eight years in coaching the Warriors, Collins has pitted her team against far larger schools in both games and scrimmages to boost her players’ skill levels, experience, and self-expectations. Key to winning this year is achieving solid slugging and savvy offense to compliment the outstanding pitching, Collins said. Ever modest, Collins predicted that the team’s offense — which

CHESTERTOWN — The North Warren Varsity Baseball Team is seeking to stay competitive in the Adirondack League this year despite the loss of two strong seniors from last year’s team and a lineup of young players undertaking key roles. Coach Jason Humiston, leading the Cougars for nine years, acknowledges that the 2010 players should be able to rally and attain their goal of a .500 record this season. The team tallied 6-11 last year. Keep in mind that North Warren is the smallest school in a highly-competitive league. In 2009, John Remington was number one on the mound for Humiston and after graduation last June, left some big shoes to fill after graduation. Lou Galarza boasted a strong arm for the Cougars at catcher last year. Both hit well, batting over .450 for the season. “A young team always has gaps — and no doubt, we are going to do the best we can with the talent that we have,” Humiston said. Some of the seniors on the roster are just joining baseball, and it will take time for them to settle into new roles, he said.. Senior Jeff Bennett and Junior Cody Higgins will undoubtedly step up and lead the team this year, Humiston said. Higgins can definitely throw strikes, and he’ll be a strong force in keeping the team consistent. Bennett brings the promise of hitting ability to the starting lineup. “I think we can go .500,” said Humiston. “It may be a lofty goal, but if we stay consistent, it will happen.” Consistency seems to be the name of the game for the Cougars this year. Humiston said that they often play four good innings followed by three poor ones and that’s why they have lost several early-season games. “We need to find consistency and then go from there,” he said. Curtis Breuer will switch between catcher with Robert French and second base with Will Jay. Tom Hanaburgh, Craig Smith, Ryan

WB BASEBALL From page 15 The squad defeated Bolton March 31, and fought to the finish April 1 against the far-larger Hudson Falls — an action-packed game in which the Burghers had lots of extra-base hits and good base running as well as some sharp double-play work showing off the promise of their defense. Against Bolton, talented Junior pitcher John Joseph showed his stuff, and it was good. He recorded 15 strikeouts against the Eagles, which is a solid beginning for the year, Reynolds said. One of their rarer attributes is likely to give them a boost, Reynolds said. No less than three players — Brendan Frye, Lucas Nelson and Mike Perrone — are skilled switch hitters, he said. “This is one of those teams that’s generating excitement about the upcoming season,” he said, noting they “hang out” together both on and off the field, which bodes well for their team chemistry. “Our goal is to be competitive every single night, no matter who we’re playing,” he said. “Now, the name of the game is to get them to ‘gel’ as a team.”

Cougars poised for turnaround season By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — For years, the North Warren Cougars have struggled with their softball program, due to their school’s small size and lack of a town youth softball program. In 2009, despite the team’s best efforts, the season concluded with a tally of 1-15. This year, however, may set a new benchmark for the program, as there are no less than six returning seniors — a record for recent years — leading an experienced, enthusias- The 2010 North Warren Varsity Softball Team includes (front row, left to right): Sarah Turcotte, Chelsey Crossman, Rachael Kenney, Kelsey Hamblin, Jenna Remington, Alisha Yosco, (row 2): tic squad.
