deed to emphasize the privilege and duty of patriotism.” Legionnaire Ken Little, assisted by the local Boy Scouts, then lowered the American flag of the adjacent Legion Post to half-staff.

All are welcome to attend calling hours from 3 to 6 p.m. Tuesday May 29 at Alexander Funeral Home on Main St. in Warrensburg. A memorial service follows at 6 p.m in the fu-
neral home, with Rev. David Newkirk officiating. Thurman Supervisor Evelyn Wood said Hitchcock had in recent years undertaken a wide variety of volunteer activities — including organizing the major events held in town, whether it was the Christmas Baskets Charity, the Jackwax Party
anti-cancer fundraiser, the town’s beloved Easter, Halloween and Christmas parties for families, as well as helping conduct the Thurman Food Pantry. “Becky was deeply involved in the community,” Wood said. “This is an enormous loss for the town of Thurman.” CONTINUED ON PAGE 12

Lake George - Adirondack Journal - 3
www.adirondackjournal.com
Americade is back, larger crowds expected LAKE GEORGE — Tens of thousands of motorcyclists will be rolling into the region this week to enjoy the varied activities of Americade, considered the world’s premier touring motorcycle rally. Whether it’s browsing for bike accessories at Tour Expo, examining manufacturers’ prototypes, test-driving new models, taking a guided two-wheeled tour into the mountains, or socializing with long-time Americade buddies, motorcyclists will undoubtedly be enjoying the six-day event that is now legendary after no less than three decades of success. This 30th edition of the world’s largest and most renowned two-wheeled touring rally features a full slate of seminars, demonstration rides, parties and shows, various competitions, and mini tours. New events, vendors and attractions have been added for 2012, Americade spokesman Christian Dutcher said. The rally, set for Monday June 4 through Saturday June 9, is to be headquartered at Fort William Henry, after moving last year from Roaring Brook Ranch.
New this year is the opening party at the Fort hotel, which Dutcher said would be an impressive event. “We’re hosting our biggest opening celebration — we have the most motorcyclists ever signing up for it,” he said, noting the event will include high wire acrobatics, jugglers, musical entertainment, and friendly wrestling by attendees barbed in inflatable sumo suits. “Once again, we’re going to give these two-wheeled visitors the best time of their lives,” he added. Activities include workshops, demo rides, cruises, excursions, entertainment, concerts, contests, scavenger hunts, equipment clinics, even a talent show — you name it, it will be happening. Details on Americade 2012 can be found at www.americade.com. One main focus of Americade is its TourExpo trade show, the world’s largest marketplace for touring, sport-touring, cruiser products & services. It will again be housed in part at the Lake George Forum as well as the Million Dollar Beach parking lot. Over
300,000 square feet of wares will be presented over the two venues. New this year is the participation of Ducati Motorcycles, a fabled brand from Italy. Ducati representatives will be offering demonstration rides as well as showing off a full range of their models, including racers. Also new to Americade is the appearance of Motus sport-touring motorcycles, featuring a transverse V-4 engine. One change for 2012 is that the annual motorcycle parade up Prospect Mountain will now go down Canada Street to Wild West Ranch, south on Rte. 9 from the village. New acts include motorcycle stunt demonstrations, including one by two-time World Trials Champion Tommi Ahvala from Finland and his wife — who’s also a cham-
pion rider. Also, the renowned comedian Alonzo Bodden will be presenting shows over two nights. He’s not only appeared on all the top comedy and talk shows, but he’s also an avid motorcyclist. Dutcher said Americade has seen substantially more advance reservations this year than in the past several years, despite the recent economic turbulence. He said his staff has been promoting and marketing more aggressively than ever to keep the attendance robust. Other national two-wheeled rallies, he said, have experienced declines. Dutcher said the gate will depend on the weather. “Mother Nature has her say in the attendance,” he said.

WARRENSBURG — A festive rhubarb event is set for next weekend at the Warrensburgh Riverfront Farmers’ Market, and the venue’s founder said she is looking forward to area cooks and food fans to attend and celebrate the vegetable. The second annual Rhubarb Festival of the market is set for 3 to 6 p.m. Friday, June 8 at the market’s site on River St. in Warrensburg. Locally grown rhubarb will be available, along with tastings of rhubarb recipes. A rhubarb cooking contest is also planned, event planner and market coordinator Teresa Whalen said. “We’re trying to de-mystify rhubarb, which is really a versatile vegetable,” Whalen said. Recipes and samplings of dishes featuring the delicacy will also be offered. Attendees are welcome to bring their favorite rhubarb dish for all to taste — and win a prize. “There are so many great potential uses for rhubarb,” she said, mentioning desserts, chutneys and sauces. Last year ’s event included such delicacies as rhubarb syrup and rhubarb soda, as well as rhubarb cakes and crisps. This year, rhubarb-stuffed pretzels will be offered for sale. Not only will information be available on how to prepare rhubarb, but Cooperative Extension Master Gardeners will be on hand offering tips on growing the plant. These special offerings are joined by the market’s weekly fare, including locally grown produce, maple syrup, flowers, herbs, wine, baked goods, cheese, organic meats, poultry, plants, crafts, and specialty goods. The event will feature live music performed in the Farmer ’s Market gazebo by Bolton guitarist/singer Tom Brady. For details, e-mail: taawhalen@yahoo.com or call 4665497.

Innovation is the route to our future
I
June 2, 2012
www.adirondackjournal.com
n recent decades, life in the Adirondacks — particularly in the remote areas — has become challenging for yearround residents. With traditional Adirondack-based industries hampered by competition from overseas and tightened government regulations, goodpaying jobs have disappeared. Our communities shrank due to limited employment opportunities. School enrollments diminished across the Adirondacks by more than 30 percent as families moved out to seek a more promising future. These trends, confirmed several years ago by the Adirondack Park Regional Assessment Project report, raised alarm over how many Adirondack communities are threatened. There is a prevailing force, however, that has been working in the opposite direction. Innovation. It’s a matter of exploring revolutionary approaches and devising out-of-the-box solutions to long-standing problems. There are plenty of examples of how such an approach has proven successful. This week, Newcomb Central School scheduled a dinner to celebrate their largest enrollment in 25 years — 101 students, a record in recent years. Only six years ago, their K-12 enrollment was 55, down from about 400 several decades ago. Back in 2006, the school administrators, under the leadership of School Superintendent Clark “Skip” Hults, didn’t resign themselves to impending extinction. Instead, they devised a program of recruiting international students who have traditionally sought out private schools in the U.S. The program has been wildly successful, bringing additional income into the school district while enriching the educational experience for local children through boosted cultural diversity. Based on the success of the program, the school administrators are now seeking to establish a dormitory, or secure student housing by the conversion of existing residences. Such a move could boost the district’s revenue by $1 million, or about 20 percent, offering relief to local taxpayers. The Newcomb district’s revolutionary thinking goes further than hosting international students and a residential program. The district is also drafting a program through which students can graduate from Newcomb Central with both a high school

diploma and a two-year college degree. Forty-four miles southeast, another example of ingenuity shows a lot of promise for remote Adirondack communities and their economic revival. Broadband access — seen as crucial to tourism and economic development as well as local residents’ quality of life — has been regarded as economically unfeasible due to the burdensome cost of infrastructure needed to provide broadband for a meager population spread over mountainous terrain. But in Thurman, town officials decided to shoulder some risks and innovate. The town is partnering with a Chestertown-based entrepreneur to bring broadband to its 1,200 residents, most of whom rely on near-useless dial-up. The Thurman town board voted several weeks ago to commit $20,000 to testing cutting-edge “white space” technology which would broadcast data over unused frequencies traditionally reserved for analog television transmission. The project, which has gained national attention, holds a promise of affordably connecting its citizens to the Internet, now seen as a virtual necessity of modern life. While there’s a considerable amount that’s been accomplished in reviving our economies, more challenges lie ahead. Most of our communities’ downtowns still host too many vacant buildings — idle primarily due to the high cost of heating and cooling as well as burdensome taxation. While Chestertown is struggling with how to revive rows of empty storefronts, their town government is taking action on exploring ways of slashing the cost of heating its own facilities through the use of wood chips or pellets.Already, the town government has installed arrays of solar panels to provide electricity and cut its utility costs. Such technologies could help efforts to revitalize our downtowns, experts have said. All these examples demonstrate that innovative thinking can overcome the longstanding problems we face in the Adirondacks — and we at Denton Publications hail the practice.

•100 Years Ago – June, 1912• A grand and heroic death American aviation enthusiasts were aghast when they heard the news that Philip O. Parmalee, one of the daring young pupils of the Wright brothers and holder of the American endurance record for aviation, had fallen to his death before the eyes of thousands of visitors at the fairgrounds in North Yakima, Wash. This expert, who was used to remaining in the air for three hours without accident, had only been up there three minutes when a contrary gust of wind caught the tail of his aeroplane and turned it completely over. Parmalee clung to the framework, but the plane shot straight for the ground from a height of 400 feet. When it crumbled into a shapeless heap in a field three miles distant from the fairgrounds the young aviator was pinned beneath the wreckage. He was an especial protege of Wilber Wright and a carefully trained airman. It is believed that some unprecedented atmospheric condition must have had part in causing his untimely death and the wreck of his flying machine.
Workmen severely burned Five men employed by International Paper Co. at Fort Edward, were badly burned by vitriol (sulphuric acid) while pouring the dangerous fluid from a 25-gallon glass bottle into a similar container enclosed in wood. Two Italians became frightened when the vitriol spattered on their hands and they dropped the neck of the bottle they were holding over the funnel. The bottle, which was nearly emptied, dropped to the ground and exploding with a loud report, scattered the vitriol. All of the men were more or less badly burned about the legs and feet.

Bolton Landing in a high wind, the steamer Horicon was tossed upon the dock where it laid helpless for two hours until the Mohican went to its assistance and pulled it off. The wind had blown the fender from the dock before the boat arrived, which was the cause of the accident. The steamer was not damaged but part of the dock was broken by the great weight of the boat and the damage was estimated at $100.
Injured Finkle boy loses lawsuit For the second time, Byron Finkle, 20, a youth of Bolton, failed in his effort to recover damages in court from the Bolton Landing Lumber Co. for the loss of his right hand while employed in the company’s mill. The action was brought by Elisha B. Middleton as the plaintiff ’s guardian and $25,000 was the amount sought. As in the first trial, the jury brought in a verdict of no cause for action.
Stately elms decimated The magnificent elms of the Hudson Valley and adjacent territory have been most severely injured by the pernicious Elm leaf beetles. This is not only true in the cities, but also in many villages and even in pretty country districts. Warrensburgh has some of the most beautiful specimens of these stately trees in this area. The preservation of these invaluable assets of the village should not be left to chance and neither should the efforts of private individuals be depended upon to save them. The city of Glens Falls has engaged an expert tree man to work on the problem in the city, who will also visit Warrensburgh. A vigorous war will be engaged against the pests. (Note…The Dutch Elm disease, first identified in Holland, is caused by a fungus. The symptoms were wilting, yellowing of the foliage and eventually death. The disease was transmitted from tree to tree by the
small brown Elm-bark beetle with which deposited its eggs under the bark. Toward the end of the 1800’s, Warrensburgh was known for its beautiful stately elm trees which lined Main and Elm Streets. Over time, they all slowly disappeared, leaving the landscape noticeably bare. Recently Paul Gilchrist, President of the Warrensburgh Historical Society, has planted disease-resistant Elm trees in an effort to restore the town’s grace and beauty. Several may be seen on the lawn of Richards Library and elsewhere around town. It will take many years for the saplings to reach the great height of their predecessors.)
Automotive news B.E. Murray, popular automobile agent of Warrensburgh, has a brand new 22 h.p. 1912 Metz for sale that he has recently brought from the factory in Waltham, Mass. It is a two-seat convertible with a rumble seat and will run 32 miles on a gallon of gasoline. The price is $495. In other news, owing to the increased expense of operation on account of the change from a horse-drawn stage to an automobile, the Warrensburgh-Thurman stage finds it necessary to increase the fare from 35 cents to 40 cents. The greater comfort of the passengers should more than compensate for the additional charge.
Love in bloom Edward Bowerman, 92 and Miss Elizabeth Greer, 55, both of Watervliet, were married June 7, 1912 in that place. The match is the result of a romance which began when Mr. Bowerman, who is wealthy, came from New York and boarded at the home of Miss Greer.
Death in the news Miss Adaline Sullivan, 24, of Olmstedville, died June 12, 1912 in Utica from the effects of a railroad accident she recently
suffered. Joseph Luther, 68, of Warrensburgh, a veteran of the Civil War, died June 9, 1912 of dropsy of the heart. He had been an inmate at the Soldiers Home in Bath since May 14, 1912. He leaves a widow.
Area news roundabout There was a frost the night of June 7, 1912 all over this section. Considerable damage to garden stuff was reported. Four acres of potatoes on Warren Potter ’s farm in Glens Falls were badly nipped and the damage is estimated at $500. The North Creek Telephone Co. has erected a three-story building on Main St., which stands near the junction of the Indian Lake and Newcomb roads. The first floor is occupied by L.D. Pereau’s garage, the second by the telephone exchange and the third by living rooms. The Moston brothers of Johnsburgh have had 11 sheep killed by dogs. In Bakers Mills, Nathan Moore cut his arm badly with sheep shears while shearing sheep for Luke Rist on Edwards Hill. The very first sheep he operated upon kicked and hit his hand that held the shears and drove the sharp points through his other arm between the wrist and elbow, making a severe wound. Truman Monroe of The Glen cut his foot badly recently while peeling pulp wood for William Ingraham. Michael F. Cronin, of Aiden Lair, was seriously injured the night of June 7, 1912 while walking along Albany St. in Schenectady. He stumbled over a street car fender that had been left in the roadway and fell heavily to the pavement. Harry Wadsworth of Sodom has a duck that has laid 37 eggs this spring and is still shelling them out at the rate of one every day. Jesse Cooper of Diamond lost a fine horse. Willard Moston of Wevertown has purchased a new Overland motor car. Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 623-2210.
Letters to the Editor Yes, health care system needs help To the News Enterprise: In answer to the question posed by Dan Alexander ’s recent editorial — “Is health care moving in the right direction?”— I could have answered “NO” without much of any effort to dig into what would come next in the discussion. Our medical system is broke, and as big a change as the legislation Obama signed seems, it doesn’t scratch the surface to get to all the major ailments. Truly, though, I don’t see how legislation, which guarantees insurance to all Denton Publications employees and saves $100,000 for a small business in the process, is eroding American freedoms. If ANYTHING ought to be an entitlement, should it not be medical care? I understand there is a huge potential downslide incurred by resorting to big government entitlements, and the money has to come from our pockets, ultimately. Nevertheless, it seems to me that Social Security and unemployment insurance, for examples, are almost Godsends, or our whole country would be in the throes of deep agony of all sorts, right now. So, what freedom would we be gaining by eliminating those entitlements — or guaranteed medical insurance for more people? I really don’t get it. I don’t know what we should do, really. But I value attempts made in a positive direction, no matter how small. If I could see something concrete being lost as a result of this
itsy bitsy step in the right direction, I might not go for it, either, but … $100,000 further in the black for a small business somehow still seems like a good thing to me. I appreciate the detail laid out in this editorial; it provides the substance needed for a good dialogue. Don Austin Elizabethtown
The rumble of a Harley can save a life! To the Adirondack Journal: This is written in response to J.P. Gitto's recent letter to the editor about loud pipes on motorcycles. I noticed he didn't mention the hot rod cars with loud pipes with their drivers burning rubber or race boats and Jet Skis on the lake or 18wheelers downshifting through the gears or even construction crews using jack hammers, just motorcycles! If you want total quiet in this world, you’d better sit on top of one of the high peaks and hope a jet or helicopter doesn't fly overhead. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that straight pipes are okay. I have a muffler on my bike and I even installed an additional baffle to make it a little quieter. I have a 1640cc S&S engine in my Harley so it's never going to be whisperquiet. I hate to use that old saying but, loud pipes do save lives. I hit a deer once with my truck and have had some near misses. I noticed that when deer hear me coming on the bike they
turn and run back into the woods. I've been riding 44 years and when I had quiet bikes people would cut me off as they were changing lanes on the highways — but not with this bike. The common response from people who hit a motorcycle is "I didn't see the motorcycle". Well if you can't see us, at least let us be heard. Nick Bonavita Diamond Point
Here’s for quiet motorcycles! To the Adirondack Journal: I found J. P. Gitto's letter to the editor about loud motorcycles very good. He hit on how annoying loud motorcycles can be. He was very insightful and informative. Ethan Vernum's letter was ridiculous. His theory that because he pays taxes allows him to disturb the peace many of us enjoy. Not only is his loud bike causing him physical problems such as possible loss of hearing but the noise he enjoys must be doing something to his mental process. I must say that this year I've noticed many more motorcycles are quiet and I hope this trend continues. Edward Kenna Bolton Landing
Rustic event and wedding venue launched in Thurman Burlap & Beams THURMAN — Folks planning on holding a memorable wedding or special event have a new option: the pastoral Thurman setting of the new “Burlap & Beams” enterprise. Burlap & Beams proprietors Terri Larson and Mechelle Roy held an open house this last weekend to introduce their enterprise — and various other associated services — to the public. The open house, Larson said, showcased the carefully restored historic barns and breathtaking mountain views of this new venue for weddings, receptions, reunions, and other parties. The event also presented vendors from around the region who offered such services as catering, wedding photography, jewelry for bridal parties, floral arrangements and sweets. Burlap & Beams, which combines rusticity and elegance, is located at 242 Cameron Road. With catering arranged by the proprietors, Burlap & Beams offers a memorable setting for bridal brunch picnics, as well as bridal luncheons and dinners in a unique, historic setting. Also, the proprietors can arrange
carriage rides, provided by 1000 Acres Ranch Resort. They are also seeking to arrange train transportation through the Saratoga & North Creek Railway. Larson and Roy encourage organizers to approach them with any event dreams, and they say they’ll strive to help realize them. Much work, including installing hardwood floors, has been accomplished to make one of the historic barns suitable for elegant functions, while maintaining its ambiance. The site of Burlap & Beams is the Orley Needham Farm, which in the 1800s hosted Guy Brooks’ Boarding House or the Loveland Hotel & Tavern. Remains of a large stone fireplace from that early building still stand in the yard of the mid-19th century farmhouse built to replace it. The barns, long part of the pastoral landscape of this area, were working outbuildings well into the last century. Larson and Roy welcome visitors, by prior arrangement, to stop in and see this scenic site as it turns the page to a fresh chapter in its history. Read more about the new venture at www.burlapandbeans.com.

Warrensburg Central students learn about asthma By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Due to a $5,000 grant obtained by a local parent in collaboration with elementary school teachers, children of Warrensburg have been learning about a common syndrome that effects millions of their peers nationwide: asthma. Due to the grant, Warrensburg Elementary has been providing a range of asthma activities this school year, including a word-search game at school Open House, a public forum with allergy and asthma specialists, and various schoolbased educational sessions. The teachers were also provided with an asthma training session with Doug Wildermuth of E5 Support Services. This spring, students in grades 3 through 6 at Warrensburg Elementary School learned about asthma during their gym class and discussed what it might feel like to have an asthma attack. They learned about asthma control, which includes avoiding asthma triggers including smoke, pet hair dander, pollen, dust mites and unhealthy weight. More than 60 students at Warrensburg Elementary participated in a recent asthma awareness poster contest. Themes for the asthma education, reflected in the posters submitted, included advice on taking medicine as prescribed, the value of regular exercise, and anti-smoking messages. Laura Moore, a parent of two children with asthma — Thomas, 10 and Andrew, 7 — was awarded the grant from the Everyone Breathes asthma coalition. A former Warren County planner, she drafted a grant ap-

N. Country Ministry gets National Grid grant NORTH CREEK — National Grid has awarded a $2,000 grant to North Country Ministry, an outreach organization serving families in need in rural Warren County. "The work that North Country Ministry is doing to pro-
ply. Only 10 grants were awarded nationally through the Everyone Breathes coalition although 900 applications were received. “When I heard we were among 10 of hundreds of applicants awarded, I was thrilled,” she said. “I never thought our area would win such a grant award, when asthma problems in cities are so intense.” Teachers Anne Downes and Scott Smith provided input for the grant application. Molly Wilson of the coalition said that Moore’s submission was chosen because it demonstrated a partnership between the school and community. “We liked the application from Warrensburg because a parent had worked closely with the school to determine the best way to utilize the grant,” Wilson said. “It was clear that with them working in such a partnership, the money would be used for the intended purpose.” Moore said that caring for her children with asthma has had its challenges through the years, but she and her husband Dean have remained focused on engaging their children in activities as much as their asthma conditions would allow. With the support and advice of medical practitioners, both of their boys are involved in a variety of sports including ice hockey, soccer, baseball, football and skiing. “Actively managing their asthma has been key to maintaining their interest in having fun,” Moore said. Interactive displays detailing the local students’ activities related to asthma awareness will be on display at an upcoming Wellness and Health Fair to be presented some time in June at the school, Moore said.
vide counseling and assistance in the rural communities of Warren County is much appreciated," said William Flaherty, National Grid Director of Customer and Community Management. "National Grid is pleased to continue our support of those efforts with this donation to the Emergency Assistance Fund." National Grid has helped North Country Ministry in the past by meeting the emergency energy needs of families in distress. As the prices of fuel for homes and the gas tank go up, the prices of basic necessities such as food and clothing are even more difficult for low income families who have stretched their resources. North Country Ministry sees more local families using their services for emergency needs, visiting the Clothing Center and making use of the Gathering Place lunch programs. “North Country Ministry is grateful for the support offered by National Grid. Our Emergency Assistance Fund provides short term help with basic life needs such as food, clothing, gasoline, auto repairs and heating fuel in the winter months,” said Jill Harrington, Executive Director.

Local library wins regional award The Stony Creek Library received two major awards presented at the Southern Adirondack Library System's annual banquet held May 21 at Echo Lake Lodge. Library Trustee Sandi Payne was presented the SALS regional "Trustee of the Year” award. The second award, “Program of the Year,” was presented to library director Lisa Bartow for her work in founding the Dirty Dozen Garden Club. Just weeks ago, this fledgling garden group, with members ranging in age of three to 83, planted a community garden at the library. They’ve also learned a lot of information about gardening techniques. As there are 35 member libraries in the Southern Adirondack Library System including Crandall Library and Saratoga Library, the award is considered a significant milestone for Stony Creek. The Dirty Dozen Garden Club will continue to meet officially through May and unofficially through October. Special thanks go to the Town of Stony Creek, Bartow said, for initially funding the Dirty Dozen Club. Thanks also go to the local Boy Scouts, library board members and volunteers — as well as Stewart’s Shops for their grant.

Hitchcock remembered from page 1
In late 2011, Thurman Town Board members including Becky Hitchcock (center) work on drafting the 2012 town budget after a year of unprecedented financial pressures. Hitchcock, who died May 25, has been credited with bringing a moderate approach and cohesive influence to town politics during challenging times. Hitchcock is flanked by board members Leon Galusha (left) and Al Vasak (right).

Wood said that as each community event or charity lost a key leader in the last year and a half, Hitchcock had volunteered to keep these vital community traditions alive, and make them flourish. “Whenever anything was needed, she was always ready to step up and lend a hand,” Wood said, recalling how Hitchcock, her husband Bob, plus Myrna Keeler personally stuffed 800 plastic eggs with goodies for children attending the town’s 2012 Easter party and egg hunt. “She was so deeply involved in everything, and she had a real knack at organizing things,” Wood added. This year ’s Thurman Jackwax Party, which raises money for the American Cancer Society, had new features and robust receipts this year, as it carried on a treasured local 80-year tradition under Hitchcock's leadership. After the event, Hitchcock characteristically deferred credit to other volunteers and area citizens for their generosity. Lifelong friend Charlotte Needham spoke May 29 of Hitchcock’s modesty. “Becky never looked to be in headlines, she’d just do things because she wanted to,” Needham said. Wood said that Hitchcock had a deep concern for others in need, which was expressed through not only the town Christmas Basket program, but the town food pantry. Wood said Hitchcock spent many hours helping ordering food and stocking the pantry. “Becky was very, very concerned about those in town that needed food — and through her work, she took the food pantry
to another level,” Wood said. “Becky was involved in everything, and yet she responded even if I called her at the last minute for extra help.” Hitchcock’s additional activities included organizing the local Defensive Driving courses. Wood also noted that Hitchcock took her political post seriously, attending various training courses to sharpen her knowledge of public policy. “She was deeply interested in doing her job and doing it well,” Wood said. Hitchcock was appointed to the town board in August 2010, and she was not challenged in a subsequent election held in November 2011. She has been credited with bringing a moderate approach and A collaborative influence to town politics during challenging times. A source in town government said the board would likely soon be appointing someone to fill out Hitchcock’s term. Wood said it was too early to even think about such an issue. “Our goal now is to get the Hitchcock family through this,” she said. A memorial reception is to be held Tuesday evening at the Thurman Town Hall in Athol in honor of Hitchcock, immediately following her funeral at 6 p.m. May 29. Town offices will be closed beginning at noon that day in a gesture of remembrance, and sotown employees can attend the calling hours and services. Charlotte Needham paused as she reflected on Hitchcock’s deep and permanent impact on the fabric of life in Thurman. “Becky was an all-around good person — She’d do anything to help anybody,” Needham said. “Becky really loved life.”
WCS band visits ‘Stomp’ set in NYC WARRENSBURG — Lasting memories were made recently as 23 Warrensburg High School band members and eight chaperones traveled to New York City City to attend two world-class performances, including the Off-Broadway show “Stomp” as well as Spiderman on Broadway. At the Stomp performance — on the first night of the trip — the cast impressed the band with their rhythmic and percussive skits using various everyday objects from plastic bags and brooms to trash cans. After the performance, the band members
and chaperones were all invited onto the set for an interactive clinic with two of the lead performers. the session featured learning a four part composition using brooms, with an emphasis on synchronicity and anticipating each other ’s actions. The students also visited Times Square and the East Village, as well as enjoying lunch at the landmark Ellen’s Stardust Diner. WCS Band Director Denise Foster expressed thanks this week to all who contributed toward their fundraisers, which made the trip possible.

Recently a new very young local female farmer had many animals to care for — until last weekend when one of the pigs started giving birth and didn’t stop until 13 piglets were born. Now this farm keeps her busy — between school work and exams, there’s no free time. For those who’d like to get involved in public service, a vacancy exists on the town’s Board of Assessment Review. The town is still accepting letter of interest in the post. Such letters should be sent to Town of Thurman, P.O. 129, Athol, 12810. Whose who are house-bound and cannot get to the dump with their orange bags of trash, can call Jim Desourdy at 6234254 and he will take them for you for $5 per week. Calls came in this week from several disgruntled folks-several were unhappy over the school budget vote. The election, with the vote to approve the library levy also on the ballot, led to some confusion, apparently. Since the vote approved the permanent levy, all residents will now be taxed for Richard Library’s operations, even though many in Thurman have never visited the facility. Another unhappy caller complained that Warren County should get new leaders who would like to save money, and not “spend everything.” The caller asked, “is there anyone with common sense that would fill some of these seats on the county Board of Supervisors?” The present supervisors, however, have kept recent years’ budget increases to historic lows, despite more expensive mandates and spiraling costs over which they have no control.
Townwide sale called a success The Thurman Emergency Squad experienced a very successful sale two weekends ago during the Thurman Townwide Sale. The squad officials thank everyone for their donations of sale items — and for stepping up to lend a helping hand to staff the sale. The squad also thanks everyone who sent in a donation last month. The support is welcome and very much appreciated. The squad is successfully recruiting new volunteer drivers and EMTs, and they plan on hosting more fundraisers this year. By the way, the Townwide Sale was successful, with hundreds of people navigating the town's back roads for various bargains. the tally of shoppers was boosted by two four-
footed bargain hunters. At about 6:15 a.m. May 19, two such creatures, probably looking for apples, came to not-yet-opened sales on Garnet Lake Road. Two deer walked up to some homes that were having sales, but kept on going when no one accommodated them.
Local activities cut in recent years Due to town budget cutbacks, there will be no Thurman Summer Youth Program this year. This longstanding program of recreation, events and trips has been a big delight for children over the years. The Thurman Fiddlers’ Jamboree, a well-loved event held annually n September, has also been cancelled. It’s unfortunate to see these treasured traditions fall by the wayside. Besides these two, the town in recent years has seen the demise of the T.O.P.S. weight-loss program, Extra Helpings food program, Karate classes, Ski-at-Gore program, Nature Explorers Club, Y Bus Trips for Youth, the Mommy & Me program, and the Thurman Farmers’ Market. Going further back, the Home Days and the annual lawn contest have also been abandoned. It’s sad that such community activities no longer exist.
On a personal note Local residents celebrating birthdays this week include Amy Wagner Baker and Louisa Allen on June 2; Kevin Baker on June 3; Travis Galusha on June 4; Leon Galusha, Joey Castro, Budgy Fish and June Corrento on June 6; Lisa Baker, Brett Pasco, and Lennie Parker on June 7; and April Russell, Betty Clayfield and Shirley Ainsworth on June 8. Three local couples are celebrating anniversaries this week — all of them occurring on June 7: Jim and Joan Murphy, 54 years; Paula and Russ Hubert, 43 years, and Robin and Stephen Buckbee, 9 years. Get Well wishes go out to Tina Parker, Cliff Dureau, Don Haskell, Jeff Grants, and Jackie Dingman. There’s a new Avon lady in the neighborhood. Teresa Grants can be reached at 623-3940. Let her know if you need a catalog.

Elvis Fest from page 1 “We’re really excited about the show — we’re bringing back Shawn Klush, one of the top Elvis tribute artists in the world,” he said. “We’re experiencing a serious bounceback in ticket sales and we’re very happy about the numbers.” One of the reasons for the festival’s enduring popularity is the rapport between the performers and the audience, Sherry said. “The interaction between the tribute artists and the audience is a main reason why people come back each year,” Sherry said. In years past, Elvis festival attendees have talked about how they enjoy meeting and socializing with the nationally acclaimed performers. The venue for such interaction includes the kickoff concert at 7 p.m. Thursday in Shepard Park, the warm-up party that follows from 9 to 11:30 p.m. at Adirondack Pub & Brewery, and the after hours parties — at 11 p.m. Friday at The Boardwalk Restaurant, and at 11 p.m. Saturday at King Neptune’s Pub., Sherry said. “The performers enjoy getting out of costume and having fun mixing with the audience,” he said. The first headline show, named “Interpreting Elvis,” is set for 9:30 to 11 p.m. at the Tiki Resort. Friday’s major show, “Tribute to Rock ‘n Roll history, is set for 8 p.m. at the Lake George Forum. it includes tribute artists impersonating
Memorial Day from page 1 U.S. Navy — and Army Reservist Daniel Searles of Chestertown. The crowd was facing north this year, as the Municipal Center ’s flagpole
Rod Stewart, Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison as well as Elvis Presley. Saturday’s headline show, “Elvis: 35 Years Later” — slated for the same time, same venue — includes artists interpreting Elton John and Neil Diamond. Elvis tribute artist Shawn Klush, crowned the “Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist” by the Elvis Foundation, is the featured performer for the Saturday Show. Klush also won the World Elvis Tribute Artist Competition, as well as being named the “World’s Greatest Elvis” in a vote of 6.5 million international viewers on BBC television. The Lake George festival’s Elvis impersonation competitions are set to occur Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Saturday’s events include the classic car parade at 9 a.m., Elvis cruises aboard the MinneHa-Ha at 1:30 p.m., 3 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. impromptu Elvis performances around the village from noon to 6 p.m., and the Elvis Dinner at Shoreline Restaurant from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday’s events, centered at The Forum, include the Elvis gospel music competition beginning at 9 a.m., the “Ultimate Elvis Wedding” ceremonies at 10:30 a.m., and the 2012 Elvis competition finals and awards from 1 p.m., to 5:30 p.m. A festival wrap-up party is to be held from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday evening at The Boardwalk Restaurant. The festival box office, open through the end of the week is located at The Forum. the Festival hotline is 681-745. Details on the festival can be found at www.lakegeorgeelvisfest.com.

Charles P. Washburn Westport, New York June 10, 1945 - May 24, 2012
Charles (Joe) Washburn, 66, of Westport, New York, passed away suddenly doing what he loved; driving his log truck home from the Ticonderoga Mill with his wife, Jean. He was born June 10, 1945 in Elizabethtownm N.Y. Son of Philip and Ruth Washburn. He was a very hard worker all of his life , working various positions until he opened his own logging business in 1984. Joe was devoted to his family. He was loved very much be all of his family. He was a husband, a father, a grandfather and uncle. Joe knew many people and touched many hearts by lending a helping hand, while never expecting anything in return. Survivors include his wife Jean Washburn; children, Todd Washburn and Crystal Gowdy; grandchildren, Brian Gay, Michael Gowdy, Cody Gowdy and Miley Dickerson; Mother, Ruth Washburn; two sisters, Phillis Washburn and Margaret Bronson and several nieces and nephews.
School Marching Band, under the direction of Colin MacInnis, played several patriotic selections. North Warren student Christiaan Van Nispen then read a patriotic poem. Local Eagle Scout Jacob Hill led the crowd in the Pledge of Allegiance. Later, Hill was presented with a bronze award for his work in constructing a new sign for the local legion Post and renovating their landscaping. The pre-school children of Creative Opportunity Day Care Center sang God Bless America and America
the Beautiful. Fluttering in gentle breezes was a giant American flag, draped from the top of an aerial bucket of the Pottersville Fire Department’s tower truck. Ellsworth told the crowd why the Chestertown, Horicon and Pottersville fire departments were chosen as grand marshals for the 2012 Memorial Day parade. The neighboring Riverside Fire Co. also participated in the ceremonies. “These firefighters represent those in service to our communities, who, like our
military and law enforcement personnel, are prepared to put their lives in danger for the safety of their fellow citizens,” she said. Ellsworth expanded the idea to include EMS technicians and other volunteers involved in many aspects of community service. “It takes family and community pulling together to watch out for each other,” Ellsworth said. Local veterans Ken LIttle, Joe Slattery, Lou Little and Sam Maltbie fired their guns in a salute to fallen soldiers. They were backed up by flag
bearers Frank Tucci and Al Mundy. In the ceremony’s benediction, veteran Lou Russo called for people to not only remember those who served, but to incorporate such service into one’s own life. “Emulate the sacred service of those who served their country,” he said. The ceremony was followed by a reception and meal at the Legion Post. Four floats won honors for participation in the parade. Winning first place were the young girl scouts of troop 3151, followed by the local Webelo boy scouts, then in third place a patriotic float sponsored by the North Warren Interact Club featuring prom court members Amber Frasier and Abigail Bradley surrounded by young scouts. The float featuring Girl Scout troop 3299 was awarded fourth place.
