Staged crash delivers a warning By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com
By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com RAY BROOK — Adirondack Park Agency commissioners directed their staff this week to find a way to let the fire towers remain atop St. Regis and Hurricane mountains, provided that a source of money for their upkeep other than taxpayers can be secured. Located on state-owned land and in areas designated Primitive and Canoe areas by the state Land Master Plan, both towers are considered non-conforming structures under the current draft of the plan. The state Department of Environmental Conservation has penned proposals requiring the removal of the fire towers atop Hurricane and St. Regis mountains, and APA staff as late as last week expressed support for them to be taken down. Leading area environmental groups have also lobbied for the fire towers to be dismantled, but local citizens have called for them to be retained.

WARRENSBURG — Jami Ladd lay face-down on the hood of a smashed Ford Taurus, her lifeless arm draped over the fender. She lay still, seemingly lifeless atop the crumpled hood, wearing a prom dress splattered with mock blood. Her friend, Warrensburg Central 11th-grader Dani DeSantis was kneeling nearby on the ground, also soaked in mock blood, sobbing while emergency responders wrapped foam braces around her head and torso so she could be transported in an ambulance. She cried out in apparent anguish, watching emergency responders cover her friends’ bloody corpses with tarps while firefighters pried the doors off another vehicle to remove two more “victims” also soaked in mock blood. Six WCS 11th graders took part in this realistic

Residents tell legislators that Adk towns need jobs, industry By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — During a forum held by area state legislators to focus on Adirondack issues, Dave Scranton of Inlet stood up in a crowded auditorium and talked of how jobs, commerce and industry were becoming scarce across the region. “For Adirondack communities, it’s about survival,” he said, blaming the state for obstructing development by acquiring land for

wilderness. “We’re getting squeezed out here.” As Scranton was blaming the Adirondack Park Agency for over-zealous regulation, forum moderator Bill Farber of the town of Morehouse yanked the microphone from Scranton’s hands. “We’re keeping things positive,” Farber said, noting he didn’t necessarily disagree with the comments, but the meeting was intended to air only constructive ideas. While Scranton’s complaints were cut

short, the first public forum of the Adirondack Caucus — a group of state legislators representing the region — heard a mixture of both complaints and initiatives for improving life in the Adirondacks from the 100 or so who attended the two-hour event April 14. Whether it was boosting incentives for business development, consolidating public school administrations or spurring cooperation between communities, people from all over the Adirondacks offered their ideas.

SATURDAY April 24, 2010
DEC’s Grannis: we’re greener now than in 1970, but more work remains LAKE GEORGE — Focusing on environmental improvements both in the Adirondacks and statewide, the state’s top environmental officer joined officials from several area green groups in observing the 40th anniversary of Earth Day Monday with a press conference held atop Prospect Mountain. Department of Environmental Conservation Commissioner Pete Grannis cited improved wastewater treatment, a rebound in wildlife, cleaner waterways and reduced acid rain levels, and closed landfills as achievements over the past four decades. "Forty years ago, the Adirondacks were environmentally threatened because of acid rain, poorly located and outdated landfills, substandard wastewater treatment facilities and potential fragmentation of large timber tracts," Grannis said. "Since then, we've made impressive gains — our mission is certainly not accomplished — but this anniversary gives New Yorkers a chance to take stock of how far we've come." Grannis, who helped organize the first Earth Day in New York City in 1970, is now touring sites around the state that exemplify the environmental progress New York has made over the past 40 years, DEC Spokesman Yancy Roy said. Grannis said that 28 of the 48 lakes in the Adirondack monitored for acid rain have shown substantial declines in acid-

ralist Program during its 14-year history at DEC campgrounds, he said, and hundreds annually attend DEC environmental education camps. Grannis also cited the substantial reduction of pollution in the Hudson River. The number of waterways classified as severely damaged by pollution have declined 88 percent, he said. The commissioner noted other examples of environmental progress in the state including the cleanup of nearly 1,800 polluted sites. Grannis also cited the comeback of Bald Eagles and Peregrine Falcons, severely threatened decades ago, but now enjoying record-high populations. Grannis was joined by Fund for Lake George Executive Director Peter Bauer, Lake George Association Director Walter Lender, Adirondack Council President Brian Houseal and Open Space Institute President Joseph Martens — all of whom offered their views on achievements in cleaning up and protecting the environment. Grannis said efforts must continue in protecting the environment, noting particularly his concerns over greenhouse gases and global warming. He said that as a member of the state’s Climate Action Council, he and others will be planning how to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in New York State by 80 percent as of 2050. "There is plenty of work to do across the state and many new issues to address — from climate change to invasive species," he said. "If we are to continue making progress, we'll need the same amount of passion and dedication as those first Earth Day marchers had — It's time to re-dedicate ourselves to taking the next step."

ity, and all of them show reductions in sulfate and nitrate. Also, the number of fish species has increased from three to four, he said. He also noted that moose, Bald Eagles, Peregrine falcons, ravens and ospreys have established themselves in the North Country after long absences. Beaver, otter and fisher populations have flourished to the point that there are now trapping seasons have been resumed. Wild turkey populations have also multiplied, enabling a hunting season. Grannis noted that over the 40 years, 82 unlined landfills have been closed in DEC's Region 5, which encompasses Warren, Essex, Hamilton, Washington, Saratoga, Franklin, Clinton and Fulton counties. Since 1970, he said, more than 700,000 acres of Adirondack lands have been protected under conservation easements. The vast majority of this acreage, he said, represents working forests where logging activity continues. Easements also provide public recreational opportunities on lands and waters previously closed to the public, he said. Adirondack heritage-strain brook trout and round whitefish have been restored to more than 50 ponds, he noted. Strides in environmental education — for both children and adults — have also been achieved, he said. Since 1990, “Summit Stewards” have worked the Adirondack High Peaks, educating visitors about the rare alpine ecosystem that is found on only 16 of the highest peaks in the state. Grannis said it was important to raise environmental awareness in youth — and prompting their interest in the outdoors has been an important objective for DEC. More than 100,000 children have participated in the Junior Natu-

CHESTERTOWN — For weeks dozens of young students at North Warren School have been singing, gesturing and cavorting onstage as they practice the familiar songs, dances and dialogue associated with everybody’s favorite chocolate baron, Willy Wonka. They’ve been rehearsing the musical Willy Wonka Jr. which is set to come to life at 7 p.m. this Friday and Saturday, April 23 and 24 in the North Warren Central auditorium. There is no admission charge. Recently, while several sixth graders practiced their routines in the stage, production director Joanne Paulson offered a comment on how much the children were enjoying the experience delving into their roles. “They’re so familiar with the story and characters, and they’re all having a lot of fun,” she said. “Sometimes too much fun,” Paulson added in jest. Whether it’s experiencing the silly antics of OompahLoompahs — candy factory workers — or the off-kilter mind-set of Willy Wonka,

Warren High School Art Teacher Polly Towers and the high school art students, Paulson said. Serving as technical director is Jeff Conkey. The vibrant, creative costumes were fashioned by Darlene Schaefer and Jessica LaFountain, she said. “When you want to have a

Teens helping public make wise decisions The teenage members of Students Against Destructive Decisions at Warrensburg High gathered at the local Stewart’s convenience store Friday and placed stickers with a warning message on all multi-packs of alcoholic beverages. The stickers remind purchasers that hosting a party for teens where alcohol is available is illegal. Such action not only can lead to tragic consequences, it can be costly in various ways, including financially, to everyone involved. "Parents Who Host, Lose The Most: Don't be a party to teenage drinking," reads the Council’s reminders. “Parents making party preparations for their teen's prom or graduation should invite their children's friends, but alcohol should be left off the guest list,” said Amanda West, educator at the Warren County Council for Prevention which is co-hosting the program, titled “Sticker Shock.” Students involved in S.A.A.D. at Warrensburg High School are Kayla Keith, Taylor Hughes, Jami Ladd, Kelly McNulty, Sarah LeGuire, Denver Berry, and Stuart Ketchum. They are mentored by group advisor Darlene Gordon. Those administering the program were interested that a variety of local beverage outlets were asked to host the sticker effort, but Stewart’s was the lone store that consented. Warrensburg’s S.A.D.D. Chapter isn’t the only one conducting the Sticker Shock program. Next week, students from North Warren will be affixing stickers on beverages at stores in their area.
Share an artifact, relive the bygone days It’s fascinating to discover aspects of life in bygone times, and how better to make the olden days come alive than examine some artifacts and hear the stories behind them! At 7 p.m. Thursday April 22, the Warrensburgh Historical Society is hosting an Artifacts Night at the Warrensburg Senior Citizen Center, and all are invited. If you are so inclined, bring along something old to show off and tell us about. An artifact allowing a vital glimpse into history could be a vintage postcard or photograph, a book or a map or even an old kitchen utensil. In the past people have brought these items, plus tools, train and trolley schedules, family diaries and letters, to the delight of others. Memorabilia from local businesses are always prized. The senior center is located at 3847 Main St., and parking and entrance are off Elm St. Refreshments will be served, and all are welcome!
Returning Elm trees to Warrensburg The Warrensburgh Historical Society will plant two young American Elm trees on the front lawn of the Senior Center on Arbor Day, Friday April 30 and the public is invited to attend the event. The Warrensburg Town Board accepted this donation of trees from the Society at its meeting last week. Paul Gilchrist, Society president, explained that these are Liberty Elms acquired from the Elm Research Institute in Keene, NH. They are highly resistant to the Dutch Elm Disease fungus that wiped out nearly all of the nation’s large elm trees during the twentieth century. The Liberty Elm is not a hybrid or foreign strain, but a genuine American Elm derived from survivors of generation after generation of elms inoculated with the disease in a pro-
Glens Falls National Bank & Trust Company Achieves Highest Rating from Bauer April 2010: Today more than ever, it is important to know that there are financial institutions that are strong, secure, and ready and able to assist their communities; Glens Falls National Bank & Trust Company, Glens Falls, New York is one such institution. Since it exhibits overall financial superiority in such areas as: capital adequacy, delinquent loan levels and profitability, BAUERFINANCIAL, Inc., Coral Gables, Florida is proud to bestow its highest 5-Star Superior rating upon Glens Falls National Bank & Trust Company. In fact, this marks the 12th consecutive quarter that Glens Falls National Bank & Trust Company has earned this distinction. “There is no question, it has been a challenging year for many businesses and consumers which makes it all the more important to recognize those financial institutions that are strong and stable. Glens Falls National Bank & Trust Company is an excellent example of this,” remarks Karen L. Dorway, president of BAUERFINANCIAL.
BAUERFINANCIAL, INC., Coral Gables, Florida, the nationís leading independent bank and credit union rating and research firm, has been reporting on and analyzing the performance of U.S. banks and credit unions since 1983.

gram conducted over the past five decades by Cornell University and the University of Wisconsin. The Liberty Elm takes its name from the famous elm tree in Boston under which patriots gathered during the period leading up to the American Revolution, and which was cut down by loyalists as the British were forced to leave Boston, under siege by George Washington. The Society wants to encourage people to purchase and plant similar young elm trees around town to eventually restore this once-dominant stately tree that used to line the streets and grace the yards of Warrensburg by the hundreds. Two elms were planted on the lawn of the library last fall, and two more have recently been planted at the middle west entrance of the cemetery. One of the largest elms in the nation, 200 feet up Oscar ’s Smokehouse driveway, was recently recognized as a National Historic Elm. Two other large elms are located on Alden Ave., one of them 30 feet from River Street. Students from the high school environmental science class will assist in the planting Friday, which is scheduled for 11:00 a.m. Information about how one can order Liberty Elms is found online at elmresearch.org, or by calling (800) 367-3567. Prices are very reasonable and delivery takes about two days, Gilchrist said.

STAR exemptions decreased WARRENSBURG — Starting the second week of April, the Warrensburg Town Assessor will be circulating around town taking new photographs of Warrensburg properties. Most of the time, Assessor Greg Klingler will be using the Town’s black-and-white car identified with “Assessor” emblazoned on its side, he announced Monday. Occasionally, Klingler will be walking around the town, mainly within the hamlet, taking photographs. It is estimated that this process will be ongoing for the remainder of the year. The tentative 2010 assessment roll will be published on or about May 1 and will be available for public inspection from then on in the Warrensburg Town Hall. New York State has set the 2010 STAR exemption levels as follows in their program of partial school tax relief: A portion of $29,080 of primary residential assessments is exempt for the Basic STAR program, and $56,490 for the Enhanced STAR. This represents a decrease this year of $3,590 for Basic STAR and $5,370 for the Enhanced STAR. Overall, since the 2008 revaluation, New York State has decreased the STAR exemptions in Warrensburg by $20,640 and has stopped sending the STAR rebate checks to property owners throughout the state.
Crash From page 1 drama, presented on a field beside the school Tuesday for the entire high school population. It was intended to drive home the point that alcohol and driving just don’t mix. Saturday is Warrensburg’s prom, traditionally a time that substance abuse reaches its peak. Without moving, Ladd offered a comment as emergency medical technicians swarmed around the other crash “victims.” “This is really kind of scary,” she said. Nick Monroe, posing as the drunken driver and the target of screamed admonitions from other crash victims, also offered his thoughts out of the earshot of his classmates. “This is very realistic, and hopefully we can get the message across.” Emergency responders, including police, fire and emergency medical personnel, worked for 45 minutes using standard protocol as if the incident were real. The re-creation included the arrival of a Medivac helicopter to portray flying a mock-crash victim away to Albany Medical Center. Warrensburg Emergency Squad EMT Doni Noble narrated the incident, punctuating her talk with poignant observations that students might take to heart. She and Cathy Emerson and Cameron Dubay coordinated the event. Watching the frantic activity, Warrensburg Squad Captain Stephen Emerson watched about a dozen of his volunteers work efficiently while bearing serious expressions. “This provides a very valuable real-world exercise for everybody,” he said. In full turnout gear, Warrensburg Fire Chief Justin Hull offered a similar comment. “This is an excellent exercise,” he said. “Many of our firefighters don’t get to go through such realistic scenes until it really happens.” Dave Alexander of Alexander Funeral Home said he’s responded to quite a few drunken-driving crashes, where the blood was real, and the “victims” didn’t have the privilege of returning to life’s activities after the crash. “Unfortunately, I’ve been to numerous crash scenes, and often it’s young kids who think they’re indestructible,” he said. School officials, who watched the drama unfold, noted that through the last 15 years, horrific car crashes have claimed a halfdozen or so local teenagers’ lives, and in most cases, substance abuse was involved. Principal Doug Duell watched as emergency responders attended to the needs of the blood-soaked victims, and a Warren County Sheriff’s patrol officer interviewed the students in the crash. “Unfortunately, we’ve been through real tragedies like this several times — and if today’s presentation causes our students to think twice, it’s been worthwhile.” Eleventh grader Erica Brauser watched the scene. She said it brought back memories of the death of a fellow student. “This is hard to watch,” she said. Her friend Sandra Pope agreed. “I can’t imagine losing another friend like this.” Tenth grader Ashlie Morehouse watched the emergency medical technicians from Warrensburg and Bolton at work, tending to the mock carnage. “This gives us insight into what really can happen,” she said. Strapped head to toe into a backboard in an ambulance, Dani DeSantis couldn’t move. “I hope no one’s stupid enough to ever drink and drive,” she said.

Jeremy Burch of Chestertown, 20, a SUNY Adirondack Forestry student, said that employment was scarce, and a large number of Adirondackers were forced to commute long distances for their jobs. “Tax cuts and incentives for small businesses would be amazing, go for it,” he said, referring to a Adirondack economic development zone proposed by the Adirondack Caucus legislators. “There are no really good-paying jobs here.” Holding his seven-month-old son, Jim Kearney of Brant Lake said Adirondack communities desperately needed not only decent jobs and wages, but affordable housing. “My family can’t afford life in the Adirondacks,” he said, noting that others in his generation couldn’t afford to make a reasonable living here. “We need affordable housing programs — not a handout, but a helping hand to get into a house.” The testimony of Berry, Burch and Kearney was underscored by a presentation that launched the forum.
Report details problems in Adirondacks Municipal planner Jim Martin and Brad Dake, both of Saratoga Springs, presented a summary of the Adirondack Regional Assessment Project, which recently revealed that youth are fleeing the Adirondacks for greater opportunity elsewhere, school enrollment is sinking fast, and Adirondackers are saddled with low prevailing wages, limited job opportunities and expensive housing. The study results also indicate that Adirondack residents are relatively poor, aging and undereducated, and that jobs are primarily provided by schools and municipalities. In addition, detailed maps devised in the Assessment Project showed that more land than ever was under strict state control — and that the job and income problems were most severe in the core areas of the Adirondacks. Lorraine Duvall of Keene, however, said she was concerned that the project data might be used improperly to curb preservationist efforts, because the problems detailed were shared by most all rural U.S. communities. “Let’s not blame this on the Adirondack Park,” she said. “Let’s remember as we talk economic development, that the best thing we have to sell is the environment.” But Neil McGovern of Lake Pleasant disagreed, noting that the project’s map and data showed that merely 0.4 percent of the land in the Adirondacks is reserved for hamlets where it can be developed with minimal restriction. “The report lays it out in spades,” he said. “It’s our peril if we don’t take action.” A prevailing lack of economic opportunity is driving out people in their 20s, 30s and 40s, McGovern said, and it is leading to the erosion of community life. “We should be scared to death,” he said.
Forester: timber industry needs legislative boost Jim Cappelliano, a forester, also disagreed with Duvall’s assertion that the Adirondacks’ economic decline was shared by rural America. He said park agency restrictions were hampering the economy, as state land acquisition meant a lot of timber was now off-limits for harvesting. “We’re operating with one hand shackled behind our backs,” he said. Kevin Bartlett, a paper mill worker from Ticonderoga, echoed the point. “Paper mills are the last bastion of good-paying work for high school graduates,” he said. ”Regulations are being rammed down our throats, and bureaucracies hamstring us,” he said. Carol Gregson, 83, of Olmstedville also said that development of the lumber and timber business made sense. “Lumbering is natural and sustainable,” she said.

meeting that high taxes were a primary cause of the migration of youth. “You have to really work on property taxes and make sure young people can stay here,” she said. Mark Hall, supervisor of the Town of Fine (St. Lawrence County) said state legislative support was needed for boosting industry. He cited the success of reviving a paper mill that had closed down. Now it employs 120 people, although decades ago it hosted 400 to 500 workers, he said. But more help is needed from legislators to create or retain vital jobs, he said. A former industrial site in his town, now contaminated, needs to be cleaned up with the help of the state so a proposed biomass plant with 100 or so jobs can be built, he said. “The system at this point doesn’t allow us to have the site cleaned up and bring in jobs,” he said, citing 30 years of bureaucratic delay in holding up development. “We have to make processes workable.” A firefighter from Providence said with the young people moving out of the Adirondacks, it was difficult to staff fire companies and ambulance squads to protect the lives and property of residents. “People are building big fancy homes, and we need to have funds so we can protect them,” he said, suggesting the legislators boost aid for emergency response agencies and subsidies for volunteers.
Proprietor: Get heard in Albany! Others focused entirely on constructive ideas. Laurie Arnheiter, proprietor of Hudson River Trading Co, a shop in North Creek, suggested that all part-year Adirondack residents declare their Adirondack home as their primary residence and register to vote here. Not only could it substantially boost federal aid to the Adirondacks, but it would boost legislative influence in Albany, she said. “This is one way we can have a bigger impact,” she said. Naj Wikoff of Keene Valley said that many creative people were drawn to live in the Adirondacks, and that opportunities in continuing education should be expanded both to meet their needs, and provide more jobs. “The creative economy is one of the fastest growing sectors,” he said. “Education and the arts are opportunities for growth.”
School district reform cited Also, he suggested consolidating school district administrations, as the administrative cost per pupil was exorbitant in Adirondack public schools. Tom Williams of Hudson said the legislators should develop an educational plan. Scott Johnson of Lake George, who migrated from Willsboro for more economic opportunity, said that business proprietors and chambers of commerce should “think globally” and work together to market their offerings rather than be territorial or competitive. He operates several businesses in marketing. “Business owners have to think of the bigger perspective,” he said, noting that businesses should aim to stay open year-round to boost local economies.
Legislators seeking to gain influence Assemblywomen Teresa Sayward (R-Willsboro) and Janet Duprey (R-Peru) and state Sen. Betty Little (R-Queensbury jointly hosted the forum as an outgrowth of their legislative Adirondack Caucus, which is a coalition of lawmakers representing the Adirondacks. They reported Monday they were seeking to expand their group to include legislators who own second home in the Adirondacks, or are sympathetic to the issues of its residents. One objective the three cited was their effort to establish an Adirondack economic zone, a targeted zone for development separate from the state's Empire Zone program, which is set to end soon. The zone could feature special loans, grants, tax credits and other incentives to boost the economy and create jobs, they said. Sayward said the meeting was constructive. “Everyone is tired of the same old gripe session,” she said. “We know many people are holding down two and three jobs and need help. We heard a lot of good ideas, now we're all going to roll up our sleeves and get to work.”

Farber, Chairman of the Hamilton County Board of Supervisors — and Fred Monroe of Chestertown, Farber’s counterpart in Warren County— both said the meeting was constructive. “Some excellent concepts were raised,” Monroe said. “It seems like everyone is pulling in the right direction.”
Towers From page 1 During two recent public hearings, 33 citizens argued against their removal. In light of the public’s affinity for the federally recognized historic structures, APA commissioners including Dick Booth were apparently torn between the requirements of the Master Plan and the objective of preserving the fire towers as icons of the region’s cultural history. “The big part of me says, ‘Look, this is a decision that was made decades ago when the SLMP was crafted and we should finish doing what has been left undone for a long time,’” Booth said. “But a part of me also says the towers are there, they are historic and although they have an impact on the wilderness character, it is certainly a bearable impact.” APA Commissioner Art Lussi sounded more resolute about saving the fire towers. “We need to find a way to preserve them and there’s no easy option,” Lussi said. “We need to find an option to preserve the towers as they sit.” The Adirondack Local Government Review Board has petitioned the agency to find an alternative to their removal, but according to a staff report, every method of legally attaining this goal will be time consuming and complicated. APA Commissioner Lani Ulrich stressed that doing things right supersedes doing things quickly. “The number of years that it will take to get it right doesn’t bother me,” Ulrich said. “I don’t like things taking forever, but I’d like to get it right.” APA Commissioners directed agency staff this week to determine the most legally viable choice of three options that would allow for the continued presence of the fire towers in their historic locations. Officials said each would have an impact on the SLMP itself, ranging from creating small historic parcels to an outright amendment that would make the towers conforming in Wilderness and Primitive ar-

eas. Officials said each option is complex, but feasible. Several APA Commissioners, including Booth, Ulrich and Cecil Wray, said they were wary of placing the maintenance costs of the towers on the shoulders of the taxpayers. They indicated that saving the towers is likely contingent on private citizen groups bankrolling the fire tower maintenance. “What are we assuming goes on if we legitimize the towers being there and a corollary concern — who is paying for it?” Wray said. Review Board Executive Director Fred Monroe said that like a cemetery, it is possible to create a dedicated maintenance fund for each of the towers. Both towers have “friends” organizations that have verbally pledged to fund their upkeep. The Friends of the Bald Mountain Fire Tower has adopted the structure and covers all of the costs of keeping it open to the public. The SLMP states the purpose of the state’s Wilderness land designation is to provide an experience unadulterated by signs of human activity. Like DEC, APA staff had concluded that there were few legally clean courses of action other than tearing down and relocating the towers. APA Deputy Director of Planning Jim Connelly stressed that staff is limited to the requirements of the SLMP and not looking to pick fights with the local citizenry. “We are fully aware of the historic value of the fire tower in the Adirondacks,” Connelly said. “It’s our job to make recommendations based on the State Land Master Plan.” APA staff are scheduled to present their legal considerations and cost analysis for fire tower preservation next month.

Shadowy figures from the grave
A
great multitude of hearty souls, brave pioneers and plordinary folks alike have lived and died in Warrensburgh since the first settler, William Bond, appeared 227 years ago on what was then a mere plot in the vast and silent forest. Most of them were born, lived out their span and then died, leaving no trace of their existence. Some left gravestones while many could not afford such a luxury. It is rare indeed to have a name of a family who has long ago passed to the other side to appear once again on this side of the vast black curtain of time. Such a name is Stackhouse. In the Warrensburgh Museum is a handwritten book once belonging to Issabella C. Thompson of Moreau. She apparently passed it around to her friends and requested them to write poetry for her to remember them by. Many entries are as early as 1827. The script is so flowery and the writing so faded that it is difficult to read. There are entries from Moreau, Fort Miller, Northumberland, Easton and Warrensburgh. On the first page is a poem written in Warrensburgh on June 13, 1835 entitled “The Grave.” It reads, ”Not all the wealth the Indies boast, not all the earth’s enchanting bloom. No sea – No scene, nor conquering host, can save a mortal from the tomb.” It is signed, G.R. Stackhouse. The missive continues, “What is friendship but a name that calls us all to sleep. A shade that follows wealth or fame and leaves the wretch to weep.” Alice Stackhouse wrote an entry titled Spring. “The lovely spring, the joyous spring, comes over our clime again, a welcome to its blossoming, its fleet but smiling reign. I wish, I wish but oh! I dare not say, the warmest wish to thee. I wish that thine hours might fleet away, as sun beams on the dark blue sea.” On June 11, 1835 R.A. Stackhouse wrote in the little book, “I wish, may you be blest with all Heaven can send, long life, good health, great pleasure and a friend. May you in every station happy be and when far distant sometimes think of me.” Little did he know that we all would indeed be thinking of him 175 years after he wrote these words.
Spirits from the mist In 1830 Warrensburgh consisted of 1,191 people in farflung homesteads, and the central settlement was hardly a wide spot on the Indian dirt trail to Canada. Five years later, in March, 1836 was the turning point when Benjamin Peck Burhans, 38, came from Ulster County to slowly turn Warrensburgh into a town of good jobs and industry starting out with his tanning business. He later became a banker. Other industries soon followed. Burhans left behind the Episcopal Church of the Holy Cross, a beautiful
edifice in native stone, as his grateful gift to his adopted town. I searched for the Stackhouse family in my old books. I found Samuel Stackhouse who was a carpenter, joiner and millwright who lived on the south bank of the Schroon River on premises which years later, in 1885, was owned by the shoe peg company. This would be across River Street from where Curtis Lumber Company now stands. There was also a James Stackhouse in the same profession, perhaps the man’s son. Samuel Stackhouse was also listed as a constable, collector and manufacturer. In 1831 he was an Assemblyman in Warren County. Could this be the father of these poetic children who tried to emulate poet Lord Byron? Issabella C. Thompson’s charming little book is preserved in the Warrensburgh Museum of Local History, allowing generations to peer through the ages and ponder aspects of life long ago.

Words to live by
Do not torment yourself about what people are going to think about your this or that action. No matter what you do or leave undone, some one will criticize you severely and the best rule for getting through life with comparative comfort is, after you have made up your mind as to the propriety and desirability of a certain course, pursue it calmly without paying the slightest attention to the criticisms of onlookers — they can only see the surface.
Crown Point Park planned Historic Crown Point on Lake Champlain, with its crumbling ruins of the fortifications known as Fort St. Frederic and Fort Amherst will be converted into a state park if the state accepts a gift a tract of 25 acres of land which the firm of Witherbee, Sherman & Co. of Port Henry has offered to donate. Governor Charles Evens Hughes has recommended its acceptance to the state Legislature. (Note: The deteriorating Lake Champlain bridge, not far from the park, was closed indefinitely on October 16, 2009. Built in 1929, it was considered beyond repair and was brought down by explosives Dec. 28, 2009. Folks from around the region were on hand to see this historic bridge, the longest span of its type in 1929, be demolished.)
Trask family launches legal action Lake George and Saratoga Springs millionaire Spencer Trask was killed in a railroad accident on Dec. 31, 1909 while on the business of the Saratoga Reservation Commission. A suit for heavy damages has been brought by his heirs for damages against the Central Hudson Railroad for $250,000. Trask was killed in a rear-end collision at Crotonon-the-Hudson and he was the only person to die in the

accident while two other passengers were seriously injured.
News roundabout Twenty years ago this month, in 1900, eggs were selling in the Warrensburgh market at 18 cents a dozen, butter at 20 cents a pound and potatoes were 45 cents a bushel. Holcombs’ Orchestra of Glens Falls, including violin, piano and trap drums, has been engaged to furnish music for the dance to be given at Music Hall on April 20, 1910. It will be the dance of the season. Many local dancers and those from neighboring towns are expected to attend in large numbers. (Note: The Warrensburgh Music Hall was next door north of the present day Rite Aid store.) An electric light plant established by Henry Knoblauch will begin operation May 1, 1910 at Bolton Landing. It will be in the charge of Orrin Tubbs who moved his family there from Warrensburgh. Benjamin P. Young, 36, died of pneumonia Thursday, April 7, 1910 in Glens Falls Hospital. His earthly remains were removed to Chestertown where his funeral was conducted on Sunday from his home. One of the twin boys of Bert Robbins of Bakers Mills died April 6, 1910. The child was buried in the Bates Cemetery, Johnsburgh. Henry Bennett of Garnet is having a new chimney built on his house and Frank Maxim is doing the work. Fred Truesdale of Hill View (Diamond Point) has broken ground for a bungalow which he intends to build right away. Charles Lanfear has painted his store which is situated on the state road about a half a mile from town. Attorney Baker is in Fort Ann again. When he disappeared two months ago there were various stories that he had been tampering with the funds of the defunct Fort Ann Bank but all has now been resolved. Carl Turneur of North Brant Lake was in Chestertown to see his father, Louis Turneur, the famous chef at the Chester House. (Note: Turner Road, just off the Starbuckville bridge is named for Carl Turneur, as he then called himself.)

thoughtful in his dealings with people, skilled with his hands in his business and he deeply respects the land and the history of where he raised his family and makes a living. There is no question in using the phrase “classic Adirondacker” because in a later century he did exactly what the Morehouses, Dunkleys, Sullivans and Ordways (settlers of this region) did 200 years earlier. He prepared himself with useful skills, although he wasn’t a farmer, blacksmith or woodcutter, and decided to migrate into the Adirondacks to stake out a life for himself and his family. The anti-APA politicians say the APA opposes economic development. Peter’s story of four decades living in the Park proves them wrong. He left teaching after 20 years at Johnsburg Central to devote full time to developing his boat-building business. He provides excellent jobs to Park residents, and his boats are being
paddled in waterways across the U.S. and Canada. State Sen. Betty Little's attempt in the state Senate to block Hornbeck’s appointment to the APA board is a gross disservice to the residents of the Park and other New Yorkers. Betty Little knows nothing about life or making a living in the Adirondack Park, and she has no stake in the Park beyond the Republican votes she harvests up here. Sustaining Adirondack Park, a great experiment in land preservation now in its second century, is the reason New Yorkers, nearly 40 years ago, established the APA. This agency’s job is to assure the human communities and the natural communities found in the park’s wilderness are each given protection to live in harmony. Who better to undertake this job than someone who has and is doing this now? Peter Hornbeck respects and completely understands the importance of the work he would be doing as an APA commissioner. I recommend to the state Senate his timely confirmation. Bob Nessle Johnsburg

Annual townwide sale approaching Town residents are reminded that the townwide Garage and Yard Sale event is set for May 14 through 16, and it’s time to gather and organize sale items. Those who are hosting sales can register between 2 and 6 p.m. Thursday April 29 through Saturday May 1 at the Thurman Town Hall to be placed on a map. Volunteers will be on hand to take information, which will be used to publicize your sale on the town website and on the maps which are handed out to visitors to town. Folks hosting sales are asked to bring a list of their representative sale items which will be described in the map packet and in advertisements. Those who wish may set up for just one or two days rather than all three. All who register pay $3 for these ads and publicity. All vendors are reminded to make sure sale items are marked with a price and be prepared to put up some bright pink signs leading shoppers to your yard sale.
Protect your loved ones A rabies clinic offered through Warren County Public Health Services is scheduled from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday April 24 at the Lake George Firehouse. Those seeking details may call 7616580 for details. Keep your pets and family members safe, as rabies has been reported in the area. Please note there is a leash law in the town of Thurman, and pets must not be running at large. Those who find animals who have been dropped off on their door stoop or have wandered onto their property, are welcome to call the town dog warden at 6239810 and he will pick them up.
Over the fence Residents have reported that mosquitoes are back in swarms, and it’s early for those pesky creatures. Does this mean we won't get the black fly infestation in May? With our crazy April weather — so far we’ve had an 80-degree high followed by 35 degree weather including snowfall — even the birds are confused. Let’s hope their not too perplexed to consume as many mosquitoes as they should be. In time for spring planting, there is llama fertilizer available for the taking. Bring your own containers. Call 623-3987 for details. A complaint was called in this week about the government’s continuing talk of their money shortfalls. If we really were so short of funds, wouldn't the federal government cancel the space program which spends billions of dollars annually? It may be fun to explore the unknown, but doesn’t it make sense to check into what’s happening on Earth and seek out some common sense? If we were meant to be on Mars, we would have been born there. Then we could, of course, have a space program to check out Earth.
April 3, 1890: The new iron bridge between Glens Falls and South Glens Falls will be completed so far as to allow teams of horses to cross next Friday. In 1919, it was expected that a bill would be introduced in the state Legislature empowering each township to appoint a Town Historian.
Thurman Town Board March meeting notes A lengthy town business meeting on March 16 hosted much discussion on the Haskell right-of-way over town property. The town board passed a resolution authorizing a corrective deed clarifying the utility easement over the property, which is located behind the Thurman Town Hall. Also discussed was whether or not to abolish the Town Tax Collector position. This initiative will be presented at the town’s April meeting. Supervisor Pitkin announced that Jay and Salem Zuno have offered to let the town move their fence and cut back their bank on their property to improve the safety of the intersection of Athol Rd. and state Rte. 418. The Highway Department recently completed a first aid course taught by Bob Frye, officials said. Two letters were read at the town board meeting, one from Dexter Baker concerning the recent turmoil involving the Thurman emergency squad, and another from Cindy Hyde describing developments in bookkeeping and payroll at the town hall. Information on town operations and policies, and minutes of meetings, can be found on the Thurman Town website. Citizens can also request a copy of the minutes in person.
Sympathies, special days in Thurman Birthday greetings go out to Emily May and Bob Galusha on April 24; to George Chonko on April 25; to Minnie Albanues, Wanda Ackley and Canyon Arroyo on April 267; to Darrin Bolton on April 27; to Shirley Jackson, Andrew Hall and Adirondack Journal Executive Editor John Gereau on April 29. A Happy Anniversary wish goes out to Heidi and John Baker, 30 years on April 27. Get well wishes are sent out to Elmer Buyce, Cliff Dureau, Don Vopleus, Joe Mosher, and Jackie Dingman. Wishes for a speedy recovery also go out to Tammy Winslow who underwent knee surgery April 14, and to Bonnie Cobb Monroe who had shoulder surgery this week. Sympathy from the community is expressed to the family of Loretta Tillema DeGelormo who passed away on April 11.

Surprise May baskets a local custom Secretly leaving a May basket on a friend’s doorstep on the first day of May is a very old tradition, and it’s still being carried on in our area. These May baskets can be simple — they’ll still be greatly appreciated. Children can make small baskets by decorating foam cups, then use yarn or string for a handle to hang the creation on a recipient’s doorknob. These cup “baskets” can be filled with wildflowers. There are endless ways to make pretty baskets to brighten up the day for your neighbors or area shut-ins. Let us at the Journal know if you hear a knock on your door, respond and find no one there — but a surprise May basket left behind!

Life in the hills has its rewards As our editor like to insert the words “In the Hills” into our Thurman column, we all prefer the term “These Slopes,” where we enjoy the simple pleasures of life. These joys include hearing the “peepers” singing at dusk, looking out and seeing birds frolicking on our feeders, watching an occasional deer or fox dash through the fields. All these are enjoyed without the audio interruptions of town life, like the roar of vehicle engines or horns honking or neighbors squabbling!
School budget to be detailed The local hearing on the Warrensburg Central School District 2010-11 budget will be held at 7 p.m. Monday May 3 in the Thurman Town Hall. The public vote on the budget is set for May 18, between the hours of 7 a.m. and 8 p.m. at the Warrensburg Elementary School. To be eligible to vote, people be residents of the school district for at least 30 days. Call 623-2861 to reserve an absentee ballot.

Bolton students tackle college-level courses BOLTON LANDING — Senior High School students at Bolton Central now have more ways to earn college credits. Beginning this year, BCS is offering seven college-level courses. Each is one semester long, yields three college credits and is taught by a BCS teacher. The college-credit courses that BCS now offers as Senior course electives complement the online courses that the school began offering some years ago through SUNY Adirondack, Principal Damian Switzer said. “This option gives students a live experience as opposed to an online experience,” he said. The offerings are another opportunity for seniors to earn college credits without leaving the school building and without having to pay for college tuition or books, he said. Bolton Central covers the cost. In addition, BCS teachers who teach the college-level courses have now earned the professional status of adjunct college professors. Switzer said his school worked with SUNY Adirondack and SUNY Plattsburgh to have some of the teachers certified as adjunct professors, with each respective college reviewing the curriculum, setting guidelines and prerequisites, plus assigning a representative to make classroom observations. BCS secondary Social Studies teacher Scott McCarthy is teaching Model Organization of American States, a course which is ac-

credited through SUNY Plattsburgh. He said that students write a legislation on specified topics, such as hemispheric security, integral development and the promotion of democracy as part of his course. Spanish teacher Francisco Roca is teaching Intermediate Spanish 201 and 202, both accredited by SUNY Adirondack. Roca said his classroom work follows the respective SUNY Adirondack course. “I think offering college-level courses benefits the students in several ways,” he said. “It gives them an opportunity to challenge themselves and it’s a great way to prepare our students for college.” Likewise, Bolton’s courses in French follow the same format as their college counterparts, said Leona Denne, who is in her 22nd year of teaching French at BCS. She is teaching Intermediate French 201 and 202, also both accredited by SUNY Adirondack. “It’s an awesome opportunity for students,” she said, noting that the students save money by earning college credits in high school. “The students have an opportunity to pursue advanced work in a comfortable environment and interact with a human being as opposed to just with a computer — It’s outside of their comfort zone as far as work goes, so it’s a nice segue from high school to the world of college.” Denne added she also appreciated the college-level courses because they gave her an opportunity to teach something new. For Laura Beuerman, however, teaching college level courses isn’t new. Now a a secondary English Language Arts teacher, she once taught English at Mississippi State University where she discovered that her students weren’t prepared. So she decided she wanted to teach younger students, catch them earlier in an effort to prepare them for rigors of college-level courses. Now she’s teaching two accredited SUNY Adirondack courses: English Composition 101 (Intro to College Writing) and English 108 (Writing About Literature) to high school students. Beuerman said that with Bolton students accomplishing these courses before arriving at college allows them more time to adjust to college life. Plus, the course work is more rigorous and help better prepare Bolton students for college-level studies, she said. “I’ve seen a lot of growth in my students that I wouldn’t normally get to see,” she said.

DEC to enforce ban on transporting firewood By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com RAY BROOK — Although enforcement could prove tricky, the state Department of Environmental Conservation announced Thursday it will be cracking down on Adirondack campers who transport firewood over 50 miles from its point of origin. Adopted in 2008, the regulation barring long-distance transport of firewood is meant to stem the spread of invasive insects that are capable of destroying an entire forest – particularly the emerald ash borer and the Asian long-horned beetle. DEC Assistant Director of Operations Tom Folts told Adirondack Park Agency commissioners last week that Environmental Conservation officers will be surveying visitors at state campgrounds in the Adirondack and Catskill mountains, looking for wood that could carry the destructive species. “When people come in to register at a campground, they are not permitted to enter the grounds with that firewood unless they live within 50 miles of the campground,” Folts said. Roughly one million campers burn 577,000 bun-
dles of wood annually in Adirondack campgrounds alone. Out of that, DEC estimates about 177,000 bundles are brought in by tourists traveling over 50 miles from their homes. First offenses can prompt a $250 fine. Since the ban’s adoption, DEC has primarily focused on educating the public of the dangers of invasive species transport instead of enforcing the emergency regulation. Folts said because of the new limitations, DEC must make up for nearly 200,000 bundles of firewood.
DEC has been awarded $123,000 in seed money from the state to get into the woodretailing business. “Money has just been made available to increase sources of firewood at some locations,” he said. “And that money is being spent on seed money for the DEC to buy firewood. Hopefully we’ll take the revenues from that and convince our people in Albany to buy more firewood.” This summer alone, DEC plans on constructing woodvending huts in seven Adirondack campgrounds

they haven’t yet identified. The rest of the money will be used to purchase firewood from approved sources. The department is also expanding its wood peddler permitting process to allow even more local residents to sell firewood in and around state-run campgrounds. Officials said wood that has been heated and certified as treated is exempt from the regulation. Stewart’s Shops and Price Chopper are already carrying the safe-transport firewood. It can be distinguished by a state DEC stamp on the package.

Burghers pull off another 11th-hour victory By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Midway through a baseball game against perennial league standout Corinth, Warrensburg Varsity Baseball Coach Rex Reynolds called his team together when they were down by one run in the fifth inning. “What kind of character does this team have?” he asked his players. “Do we have the character to win this ball game?” Two innings and a flurry of hits later, Reynolds had his answer, as his team surpassed the challenge and defeated Corinth — which annually fields a baseball team that’s among the leaders of the Adirondack League. Monday’s game started out shaky for Warrensburg, as a Corinth run was walked in, but the team rebounded with their own offensive show, scoring two early on, plus two more in the third inning. The team faltered however in the fourth inning, giving up three unearned runs to allow a Corinth comeback which tied the game at 4-4. Corinth then pulled ahead with a sacrifice fly. Warrensburg’s starting pitcher John Joseph, who had found his rhythm but had run his course, was then relieved by Mike Perrone. When the Burghers were up in the sixth inning, Jason Power led off, took two balls then slammed a home run, tying the score at 5-5. In the top of the seventh, the Burgher infield, combined with Perrone’s pitching, kept Corinth at bay. Then in the bottom of the seventh, Warrensburg pulled off one of their 11th-hour game-saving offensive rallies. Nick Monroe lead off with an infield single, and Donovan Santisteban was sent to

first as a pinch runner. Brendan Frye blasted the ball through the infield for a single, advancing Santisteban one base.
Mike Curtis Followed with another infield single, advancing the Burghers on base without an out tallied. Then Mike Perrone ripped a fast shot, and
Santisteban scored, to end the game at 6-5. Among the standouts in the game were Perrone, who not only performed well in his relief pitching, but by scoring twice and hitting a triple in the first inning and slugging the game-winning RBI. After the game, Perrone was credited his teammates. “Our team made some really great plays behind me that saved the game,” he said. “All our players really love baseball and the team really came out to play today.” Coach Reynolds gathered the players together for a debriefing. “That was a nice ‘gut-check’ win,” he said, noting that four of the team’s five games in 2010 had been decided in the last inning. Jason Power stepped away from the huddle to say a few words about his first Varsity home run. “I hit it on the perfect spot on the bat,” he said. “As soon as I hit the ball, I knew it was going somewhere.” Warrensburg’s team may also be ‘going somewhere’ this year, as they’ve won against three formidable opponents — Corinth, Hartford and Bolton — and nearly beat Hudson Falls, a far larger school. They’re now 20 in the Adirondack League, and are facing a promising future in league play. Watching his players leave the field Monday, Coach Reynolds looked at their smiling faces. “They’re the working man’s ball players,” he said, noting he had a balanced team representing varied skills. “At any time, any one of them can step up and be the hero.” As of Monday, they had a busy week ahead, facing Whitehall, Hadley-Luzerne and Salem — on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday respectively. These games are followed by North Warren on Monday, Fort Edward on Wednesday, and Lake George on Friday April 30.
Cougars get aggressive, setting new trend By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com SALEM — The North Warren Softball team has boosted the level of their play that may turn around a several-season slump, coach Shannon Phelps said Monday. In 2009, the team finished 1-15. Friday, the team defeated Salem 19-7 on the Generals’ own field, a pleasant surprise to area sports fans. Last year and for several games early this year, the team has been on an extended losing streak. Not any more, coach Shannon Phelps said Tuesday, when asked about Friday’s 19-7 score — a far-greater margin than others might expect of this maverick squad. “Against Salem, we were just able to hit the ball well, and we got it together in the field,” Phelps said. Pitcher Rachael Kenney, a Senior, controlled the pace of the game, Phelps said. “Kenney’s been on fire, throwing harder — and a lot of strikes,” she said. Junior Abby Bruce, was moved from left field to second base, and the move boosted
the toughness of the infield, Phelps said. But without a doubt, they’re now also connecting with their bats. Phelps said they may not be slamming them over the fences, but they are placing the hits well in the gaps. Well, that’s with the exception of Senior first base standout Kelsey Hamblin and solid Junior catcher Morgan Tennyson. They both crushed the ball, hitting home runs far past Salem’s fielders. Tennyson also blasted two doubles and five RBIs, and Sophomore Charissa Cronk hit three singles. “The girls have been gone from timid to being aggressive at the plate,” Phelps said. “They’re not only hitting well, but they’re aggressive running the bases.” Monday, the Cougars aggressive play continued, although the result was a 10-15 loss to Fort Edward. She added that her players were playing “solid ball” with minimal errors, and other teams shouldn’t make any assumptions from here on out. “We’re going to take advantage of any opponents not paying attention on the field,” she quipped. “We’ll be playing very competitive ball.”
North Warren’s bats come alive, defense improves By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com

LUZERNE — After an excruciating dry spell so far this season, the North Warren baseball team apparently discovered their mojo in their 5-4 victory Monday over Hadley-Luzerne. Cougar pitcher Greg Dower garnered five strikeouts in the same number of innings to set up the win, the first of the season for his team. “Greg pitched strong innings — he kept the ball down and caused the opponents to hit a lot of ground balls,” Cougar coach Jason Humiston said. ”Also, we made the defensive plays we needed to.” His batters also slugged eight hits, the most all season. “Our bats have been quiet, and they came to life last night,” Humiston said Tuesday. The team committed only two errors, rather than far more in prior games this year, Humiston said.
“This game provided a jolt — our players needed some confidence,” he said. Humiston also praised Sophomore Kristian Seeley, who was moved around and played third base Monday. “Seeley did a terrific job on defense,” Humiston said. “He had a critical role in five plays with no errors.” Humiston said the players had come a long way in several weeks, and now were competitive, rather than getting “blown out” of games by a lopsided score. The start of the season was ugly. The cougars were defeated 15-1 on April 1 by Schroon Lake, 17-2 by Fort Edward on April 12, 12-0 by Corinth on April 13, and 18-4 by Salem on Friday. Humiston said Monday’s game against Hadley-Luzerne appeared to be the start of a new trend for the season. “But we’ve got to stay consistent,” Humiston warned. “We know we’ve got to put numbers on the scoreboard to offset any mistakes we make on the field.”

Local newspapers gain ground in New York ALBANY — Regardless of the hearsay circulating about their demise, newspapers are proliferating in New York State, according to an authoritative study announced this week. The New York Press Association announced that a recent study has determined that there are 140 more newspapers now being published in New York State than were printed only 10 years ago.

Most of the growth occurred in the community and ethnic newspaper categories, indicating that the state’s appetite for local news and accurate, fact-checked reporting is increasing, according to the Press Association, which mainly represents non-daily newspapers in the state. “Contrary to popular myth, the New York newspaper industry is growing stronger each year, especially at the local level,” said NYPA Executive Director Michelle Rea.

“Evolving technologies and a stubborn recession have affected business profitability across the board, but they have not diminished the basic need for accurate information about the communities in which we all live.” NYPA’s research shows that as of January, a total of 727 weekly community newspapers, including 129 culturally specific newspapers, with a total distribution of 11.6 million, were being published in New York State. As of January, there were 55 daily newspapers being published in New York State with a combined distribution of 5 million. NYPA estimates that the 727 New York community newspapers alone generate between $850 million and $1 billion in annual revenues to the state, employ more than 10,000 New Yorkers, generate more than $500 million in payroll dollars, provide health insurance for thousands of families, and support local businesses, Rea said. “There is a reason 140 more newspapers are published in New York today than 10 years ago — the unique local content gathered by news professionals,” Rea continued. “The information industry may be quickly evolving, but reliable news reporting will never be replaced. ” Established in 1853, the New York Press Association is the trade association representing more than 750 community newspapers in New York State.
