Photo by Thom Randall Supervisor Frank McCoy and Town Board member Fran Heinrich said ideally, the squad building should be located beside a local health center — which the town now doesn’t have. McCoy and Heinrich said they’d met recently with Hudson Headwaters Health Network officials to see if it was feasible for their firm to develop a new health center in Lake George.

Ballfield facilities dedicated to local icons Marinelli, Chandler LAKE GEORGE — For years, Raymond Chandler and Walter Marinelli worked on constructing recreational facilities and providing activities for area youth. Saturday, they were honored for their years of work and leadership, as about 100 local citizens gathered to dedicate facilities in their names. Lake George Village and Town officials were joined by the joint Town-Village Youth Commission in honoring Chandler and Marinelli, both de-

ceased, who contributed so much to the communities’ youth activities and the village’s recreation complex, Village Mayor Robert Blais said. A ballfield was dedicated to Chandler and a new refreshment stand was named for Marinelli. Families of both men were present for the ceremonies, conducted on site. The 340-acre recreation complex, located off Route 9N on Transfer Rd., features three baseball diamonds, a soccer field, a football field, 12 kilometers of
cross-country ski trails, a winter tubing hill, public restrooms and a children’s play area. The concept to transform the Town’s former landfill and Village property into the multi-use area was conceived by a committee comprised of Marinelli, Blais, Neil McPhillips and Michael Lanfear. Much of the work was accomplished by Village and Town forces with a grant from the state Department of Parks & Recreation.

4-H is now seeking volunteer leaders to share knowledge with youth WARRENSBURG — With the Warren County 4-H youth development program expanding, a search is now active for volunteer leaders. The program sponsors, Warren County Cooperative Extension staff, are looking for adults over the age of 21 to lead 4-H programs. “We’re seeking adults over 21 who are interested in making a difference and have a sincere interest in the youth of Warren County,” said Amy Sabattis, spokeswoman for Cooperative Extension. Training is provided, and the volunteers determine the number of hours they serve. Those who have special interests or expertise in various fields are particularly needed, Sabattis said. Currently, 4-H is in search of a project
leader for the 4-H Rocketry and Robotics Club. Prospective leaders of this group may either have experience or knowledge in the areas of flight, rockets, planes — or merely enjoy taking things apart just to see how they work, she said. Also, the 4-H Guide program needs adult volunteers, both male and female over the age of 25, to assist with environmental programs such as tree identification, general camping skills, wildlife identification, astronomy, and more. All outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy spending time outside and have knowledge of the Adirondacks are urged to volunteer. If you or someone you know is interested in volunteering or participating, contact Cooperative Extension of Warren County at 668-4881 to speak with a 4-H agent.

Lake group to celebrate 125th with gala LAKE GEORGE — In 1885, a group of local people who shared a common passion, fishing on Lake George, decided to form an association to protect the wildlife. Their goal was a simple one: to give back to the lake what it was giving to them. They called their group the Lake George Association for the Protection of Fish & Game, and they were pioneers in a burgeoning nationwide conservation movement. Now 125 years later, the membership of the Lake George Association (LGA) has grown to include hundreds of yearround and seasonal residents and visitors. Today’s members share the same vision as the original founders and a willingness to work together to protect the beauty and quality of Lake George, according to LGA executive director Walt Lender. On Friday, July 16, over 300 friends of Lake George are expected to attend this year ’s Summer Gala, a benefit dinner and auction for the protection of Lake George, to be held at the Inn at Erlowest. This year ’s event honors the founding members of the organization. “We are gathering to celebrate the LGA’s extraordinary and broad-reaching accomplishments,” Lender said. “It’s not just our age we are celebrating, but 125 years worth of efforts to protect the Lake.” Ken Lingel, the executive chef at the Inn at Erlowest is developing an extraordinary menu in honor of the 125th anniversary, Lender said. Veteran rockers Bobby Dick & the Sundowners will be providing entertainment. Over 50 auction items will be available for bid, including a two-hour catered dinner cruise for 12 aboard the cruise ship Lac du Saint Sacrement. The winner will have the entire 197-foot ship all to themselves due to a donation by Bill Dow, owner of the Lake George Steamboat Co. The cruise will include a catered gourmet dinner by Chef Damon of Bolton Beans, and live music by Ray Alexander. Other live auction items include lunch with Mayor Blais followed by a limousine ride to the Saratoga Race Track to present the trophy to the winner of the Lake George Race, and a one-week stay at a Beaver Creek, Colorado penthouse and two round-trip airline tickets. A preview of the auction items is available on the LGA website: www.lakegeorgeassociation.org. Additional auction items and event sponsors are still being accepted. For details, contact the Lake George Association at 668-3558 or: info@lakegeorgeassociation.org.

Conservancy chief lauded by Wiawaka board LAKE GEORGE — More than 250 men and women hailing from the Capital Region and the Adirondacks attended the annual fundraiser luncheon June 28 for Wiawaka House, the nation’s oldest retreat for women. Honored at the luncheon was Nancy Williams, Executive Director of the Lake George Land Conservancy, who received the 2010 Wiawaka Ladies of the Lake Award for her significant work towards the preservation of Lake George. Jean Bolgatz was presented the “The Great Spirit of Women” award in recognition of her devoted service and longtime support of Wiawaka. Monday, Williams said the award was appreciated and it reflected her organization’s ongoing mission. "I'm honored to have received this award from Wiawaka in recognition of my work, and the work of the Lake George Land Conservancy, to preserve this beautiful lake and its forests," she said. The guest speaker for the event was therapist, lecturer, and former teacher Sister Anne Bryan Smollin. She is the well-known author of “Tickle Your Soul: Live Well, Love Much, Laugh Often and

The award was granted at Wiawaka’s recent Ladies of the Lake luncheon. God Knows You're Stressed.” The book details simple ways to restore the balance in one’s life. Wiawaka House has provided a respite for women of all walks of life and economic means since 1903. Located on the shores of Lake George, it is the nation’s oldest, continuously operating women’s retreat. Money donated through the luncheon, silent auction and sponsorships help the
group’s mission in a variety of ways, Wiawaka officials said. They help Wiawaka offer scholarships to an increasing number of women, provide enrichment programs focusing on health, wellness and life skills, maintain Wiawaka’s facilities which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places and help restore Wakonda Lodge, a historic lodging for artists.

Because it really doesn’t make financial sense to buy insurance for small losses that you can handle out of pocket with little or no financial difficulty. ********* Choosing higher deductibles lowers your rates. Higher deductibles result in premium savings you can pocket or use to upgrade your coverage to be better protected against larger losses, with little or no increased premium. ********* Insurance is best purchased to provide financial protection against large property or liability losses that if not fully covered by insurance would likely result in financial hardship. A good insurance program should protect you against catastrophic loss, not small manageable losses. ********* We can assist you in deciding what deductibles make the most $ense for you.

•100 Years Ago – July, 1910• Citizens petition postal authorities
E
ver since the name of the old village of Caldwell, at the head of Lake George, was changed to Lake George, there has been endless confusion. Mail, baggage, freight and express have gone wrong and in many instances travelers have become confused. The Lake George Association is trying to find relief from the confusion and the inconvenience arising there by petitioning the Postmaster General to once again change the name of the village. They respectfully insist that the name “Lake George” belongs to the whole 36-mile lake, with it’s about 150 miles of shoreline, rather than any one point on its shores. They feel that the village name should be either changed back to its old name of Caldwell or to some other appropriate name. Such reasonable and proper action will lead to the comfort and well being of nine-tenths of the people residing upon Lake George.
Hay crop faring well in the heat Although apples and berries were killed off by the late frost this year, grass has been flourishing. Farmers are still busy cutting what is said to be the largest crop of hay harvested in these parts in several years. With just a little more favorable weather the hay crop should be just about secured for this season. The thermometer registered 96 degrees on July 24, 1910.
(Note: Current librarian Sarah Farrar says that after 100 years, the chest still resides at the Richards Library and is safely packed away for the next generation to marvel at. Charles Reed Bishop, who grew up and was schooled in Warrensburg , is credited as the founder of Hawaii’s banking system, and influential in education there. )
Fire ravishes hamlet A disastrous fire occurred Monday noon, July 25, 1910, at Hartman’s, a small hamlet on Luzerne mountain. The fire started from an overheated chimney in the two-story frame dwelling owned and occupied by D.G. Hartman. The general store, also owned by Mr. Hartman, adjoining his residence and in which the post office was located, was also burned to the ground and nearly all the contents were destroyed. The loss is about $5,000. Some of the mail was burned.
Early Caldwell resident dies Eunice Mead, 78, wife of Alphonso Brown, died Saturday July 23, 1910 at her home in Lake George. Mrs. Brown was the daughter of David and Maria Mead, lifelong Caldwell residents and was born in the town in 1832 where she has resided all her life. Beside her husband, she is survived by a son, Dolphus J. Brown and three daughters. The funeral was held from the home and she was buried in the Lake George Cemetery.
Fine boat hits the road Library receives priceless treasure Mrs. W.F. Allen, of Honolulu, to whom the Richards Library at Warrensburgh is indebted for contributions of many curios, has presented to the library a Korean chest of great value. The chest was presented to Mrs. Allen by Captain Dominis, a sea captain of Hawaii, who made a tour of the world in 1840 and picked up many wonderful things in out-of-the way places. The chest is made of some dark wood of great beauty and is handsomely ornamented with brass in unique designs. It was placed in the reading room of the library and a great number of townspeople have come to view it. Mrs. Allen is a niece of world-famous Warrensburgh native, Charles Reed Bishop, who traveled to Hawaii many years ago and made his fortune.
A gasoline-powered launch purchased by John Anderson, of Newcomb, from Fred D. Howland of Hudson Falls, passed through Warrensburgh on the first of the week of July 21, 1910 on a wagon drawn by a remarkable fine pair of draught horses owned by Anderson and driven by his head teamster, Henry Peck. One horse was a bay and the other black. The horses weigh 3,100 pounds and are perfectly matched in size. Peck stopped at the Adirondack Hotel (now Rite Aid location) overnight and the team was viewed and admired by many local horsemen. The boat is to be placed on Lake Harris, at Newcomb, where Mr. Anderson has a summer hotel.

News roundabout The gramophone playing entertainment held at the Kenyontown Methodist Episcopal Church in North Thurman was well attended and $11.65 was taken in. Mrs. Rebecca Clarke of England, 107, says she has been a total abstainer who only drank water, for the past 40 years. While diving in Bond’s Pond (Echo Lake) Saturday, July 23, 1910, Arthur Oney made a grab for a shining substance imbedded in the sand and struck the jagged edge of a broken bottle, badly cutting his right hand between the third and fourth fingers. Several stitches were required. Pine moths are destroying pine trees to an alarming extent in Johnsburgh. When this species of pest attack a pine tree, it is soon divested of it’s foliage and is left as bare as if it had gone through a forest fire. In Igerna, George Byrne is doing a good business in his new grocery store. Myron Mead has returned home to help his father with the haying. In Minerva, C.F. Mitchell’s new stage is on the road daily from Minerva to North Creek. Stillman F. Town has taken the contract for painting the interior of the new Masonic Hall and club rooms in Warrensburgh. All the work will be finished in white enamel. Plastering the walls was done by Ira Wilsey. (Note: This stately brick building, with a magnificent interior, burned not too many years ago in an unfortunate incident of arson). The carpenter work on John G. Smith’s new residence, corner of Hudson St. and Woodward Avenue, was begun Monday, July 25, 1910 in charge of contractor James Hall. (Note…This fine house is today owned by local dentist Raluca Sandler and real estate agent Gary Cooper. Contractor James Hall is buried just a short distance up Hudson St. at the front of the old Warrensburgh Cemetery, on the east side of the roadway.) Mr. Collins of The Hermitage on Hague Mountain was in Warrensburgh July 22, 1910, with a splendid grey team. He is a lover of fine horses. He owns many good ones and raises them on his stock farm. Frank L. Bennett and John H. Lloyd, along with their mother Mrs. Jane Chappell, left July 26, 1910 for Salisbury, Maryland where they expect to locate permanently on a farm. Mrs. Chappell and Mr. Bennett recently sold their farm on Harrington Hill to C.J. Hall of Warrensburgh. Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 623-2210.
note that the three did not make any claims of accomplishments — they deferred credit, as I reported, to others. Again, thanks for your opinions. --Thom Randall)
Americans’ identity crisis Don’t vilify those who have courage to speak out! To the editor: I am appalled by the story that Thom Randall printed in the July 10 edition of the Adirondack Journal. It's because of "journalism" such as this that more people don't speak out about bad government! Good, honest hard working individuals are vilified and labeled"gossip mongers" and "back stabbers" publicly for a contentious special meeting that was scheduled to sort out an issue that came about when a board member falsely accused and back-stabbed an individual who did not attend the June 15 regular meeting which resulted in a vote to dismiss that absent employee and replace her with Mr. Pitkin’s wife. Due to the unconscionable act of a board member's spouse, who single-handedly made decisions and changes to a program that has been in place for 25-plus years without full committee knowledge nor input and brought about the contentious atmosphere of a meeting Mr. Randall did not attend but "reported" on. How dare Mr. Randall print a story that was very onesided and full of untruths and false claims of success of individuals without confirming there was any truth to such claims? It's not the actions of concerned voters in our town that gives us all a black eye, it's the "tabloid" style stories that don't report the bad acts of Government themselves but vilifies the few people who pay attention to the issues in our small town and have enough courage to speak out against that bad act. If one heated meeting will drive two individuals who "led the encouragement of free expression" to Thurman's meetings, whether it be "venting, gripes or just public opinion" to step down, it calls into question the true intentions of the "dedicated public servants" Thom spoke of in this article. I'm outraged and I think those who were publically attacked by Thom Randall's article deserve an apology. Where, in any media outlet, can a "reporter" degrade those who truly care about Open and Honest Government?? Ruth Keller Town of Thurman (Editor’s note: We welcome your opinion Ruth, and thanks for your letter to the editor. Please note that my “Golden Rule” editorial — not a news story — called for people in Thurman to treat each other as they would appreciate being treated -- and it called for backbiting and false accusations to cease. Also note that I continue to stand behind my account of the accomplishments and character of Red Pitkin and Jim and Maria Ligon, based on what I have personally witnessed and reports from trustworthy sources. Please
To the editor: America! Who are we? Are we the killers of innocents, baby killers, a starter of illegal wars as Neil Herr suggests? We decimate the planet by our desire to use the energy sources to better our citizens’ lives, as well as others? Are we a nation of people who do not know our own history? If so, why? Are we a nation which is ashamed of our forefathers and the document they produced, the Constitution, as the current Administration says? Do we as a nation believe that document is old and has no bearing on this “enlightened” age? That it is, as the progressives (liberals) teach a “living document,” to be changed at the whim of a non-elected judiciary? Do you believe that even though some 80 percent of us espouse Christianity, that we are not a Christian nation, as President Obama declared? Have we so lost our language ability that we don?t know the difference between illegal and legal immigrants? It was legal immigrants, of which my father was one, who helped build this nation. We were once a melting pot, and thus a stronger nation by the diversity built in, just as iron is made stronger by a mixture of material. Rather, are we a good nation with some flaws, but still are a benefit to the rest of the world with our ability to send help to any place in the world where a disaster happens? That we have helped free millions from repressive and dangerous governments? That we have sent thousands of our young people to war, not to gain land, but to help others? That, up until recently, we have been “The Bright Shining City on the Hill” to which all others can look to, and come to, for freedom? Ed Binder Thurman

communities, including nearby Warrensburg. McCoy said that he and Heinrich met with HHHN’s development officer, Edward “Trip” Shannon and HHHN founder Dr. John Rugge, and the two men had offered positive comments about siting a health center in Lake George. Heinrich said that HHHN has 4,143 existing clients from Lake George, who account for 10,582 patient-visits annually. McCoy said that these figures supported building a center in Lake George to accommodate the residents as well as the the 50,000 or more tourists and thousands of part-year residents that populate Lake George, primarily in the summer. “With $1 billion that Obama has earmarked for rural health care, our chances are good, considering we’d score very high on their grant criteria,” McCoy said. McCoy added that with land costs so high in Lake George, it would make sense for the town and village to trim expenses by purchasing a spacious plot for both a health center and the emergency squad to share. McCoy said the board knew of an appropriate site, but they weren’t going to disclose it, because doing so would likely boost the landowner ’s asking price. “We’re not going to tip our hand where we’re looking at, because then the price would go sky-high,” he said. Hudson Headwaters spokesman Howard Nelson confirmed that Rugge and Shannon had discussed feasibility of a health center with town officials. “We’re always interested in a community if a community is interested in us,” he said. At Monday’s board meeting, Kilburn said the new squad building was needed badly because the existing one was severely cramped and put constraints on the services the squad provides. The cramped quarters, he said, could also theoretically expose the squad to a sexual harassment lawsuit, as there were now no separate overnight quarters or lockers for men and women. “This is a big concern for me as squad president,” he said, noting that paid employees now staff the squad for certain shifts, and women have increasingly been landing jobs in emergency care work, both as volunteers and paid staff. Also, the squad’s space needs include additional vehicle bays, maintenance facilities, training rooms, decontamination and laundry facilities, and storage areas, Kilburn said. Facility needs have increased, he said, with the use of more equipment and the increasing number of calls and broadening of services expected. “We have very tight quarters,” Kilburn said, citing everincreasing governmental standards for squad facilities.

Saturday’s ball-diamond dedication honored Raymond Chandler, long-time Lake George Elementary School teacher, coach and past director of the Lake George Youth Commission. Ray devoted much of his life to young people and was responsible for the growth of the Lake George Youth Commission along with former director Don Corsetti, Blais said. McPhillips said that Marinelli had devised and organized a slew of events that raised a considerable sum, leveraging state grants to make the Recreation Complex a reality. It was very appropriate, he said, that the concession stand was now known as “Wally’s Hut.” “The Recreation Complex is a treasure and very, very important to the community,” McPhillips said, adding that Chandler was a great influence on children. “It’s a large loss to Lake George with both of them gone now,” he said. “They were wonderful people dedicated to the village and town of Lake George.” Mayor Blais also said that for many years, the two men were icons in the community. “The dedications Saturday reflect the importance of Ray Chandler and Walt Marinelli had in accomplishing the quality of life we enjoy in Lake George,” Blais said. “Particularly their contributions to the youth of the community.” Lake George Town Supervisor Frank McCoy agreed. “There couldn’t be a more fitting tribute for these men,” he said, turning his focus to Chandler. “Ray was the ultimate public servant — he designed programs to enhance kids’ self esteem.” Town Board member Vinnie Crocitto recalled how Chandler would challenge all the youth program participants to beat him at ping-pong, and he’d take anyone on while reading a newspaper, yet still beat them, to the children’s delight. “Ray would play ping-pong with a newspaper in one hand and a paddle in the other,” Crocitto recalled. “He was very creative in devising activities that would get kids involved, make them feel special and get them to believe in themselves.” He said that area youth were very fortunate to have experienced his leadership and friendship.

Families compete in golf, learn about lake conservation
The Benedict family of Hague poses for a photograph after winning the top team honors Saturday’s mini-golf tournament sponsored by the Lake George Land Conservancy. Terry Benedict (top right) won the best adult score and Terrence Benedict (front left) tied for top youth score.
BOLTON LANDING — A dozen or so families had fun Saturday while contributing to the preservation of the region and learning about area ecology, according to an official of the Lake George Land Conservancy. The organization’s second annual MiniGolf Tournament and Cruise was held Saturday, and despite morning rain and a bleak forecast, 34 people participated, Land Conservancy spokeswoman Sarah Hoffman said. The rain stopped just in time for the eight teams to make their first strokes. After tallying the scores, ties occurred in both the adult and youth divisions, resulting in the four finalists re-playing the most difficult hole for a tie-breaker. Terry Benedict won the tie-breaker, becoming the 2010 winner for best adult score and Terrence Benedict and Adam Bergamini remained tied with the best youth scores. Best Team Score was awarded to the Benedict family, from Hague. Created as a fun way to raise awareness and support for the Conservancy’s land conservation programs, the Mini-Golf Tournament and Cruise featured 18 holes of minigolf followed by a one-hour cruise aboard the Minne-Ha-Ha, an authentic paddlewheel steamboat on Lake George.
Hoffman said the fundraiser was a success. “This casual event got families out to enjoy Lake George, and the cruise allows them to see the land from the water and get young kids involved,” she said. Saturday’s fundraiser was the first of four Conservancy events this month. The others are: • July 18 – Guided Northwest Bay paddle and shoreline clean up, no charge to participate; • July 24 – Annual Meeting and Field Day — field options include a timber rattlesnake educational hike with Dr. Bill Brown, a presentation by DEC on the bat populations and white-nose syndrome, and the first guided hike along the connector trail between Gull Bay Preserve and the Last Great Shoreline in Putnam. This event costs $10 per person including lunch; • July 31 – Barbecue Benefit for land conservation in Bolton — canoe raffle is featured — $25 per adult, $15 per youth ages 615, 5 and under, free. For information about any of the Land Conservancy’s summer events, see www.lglc.org, or call 644-9673.

Horicon Historical Society Museum
Captain Austin Ross is greeted by his grandson Boyd Meade after Ross disembarked from his hydroplane Aug 28, 1921 in Brant Lake. Ross was known for taking on new adventures and facing challenges.
By Colleen Murtagh Horicon Town Historian denpubs@denpubs.com As I delve into the history of the men who returned to Horicon after the Civil War, I find that many went back to their farms and families, settling into life’s routine much as it had been before. Some of the men became the leaders of the town, something that may have happened anyway, but their war experience may have changed their view of our area. One such soldier was Austin Ross. Austin Ross was born in Vermont, but moved to Horicon at the age of five. In August 1864, he answered his country’s call and enlisted in the Union army for the remainder of the war. He
was sent to the front lines from Plattsburgh with replacement troops and they were assigned to the 142nd Infantry regiment, which was recruited in St. Lawrence County. Ross came back to Horicon after the war and spent the remainder of his life working as a farmer and lumberjack. He had three steamboats on Brant Lake, perhaps the only ones to ever operate on the lake. The craft were used to move logs from one end of the lake to the other. Ross’ role as owner and pilot of the steamships, not the war, was what earned him the title of “Captain.” Ross and his workers built many of the lake homes, and he kept diaries of his life that depict him as one who knew no bounds in what he would try, including flying in one of the first air-
planes in the area. As a Republican, he served the town in every elected position. He was Horicon Town Supervisor in the 1880’s, and Justice of the Peace for 25 years. After his death, a news correspondent from Brant Lake paid the following tribute to Captain Ross: “This town mourns the death of a grand old man, Capt. Austin A. Ross, 86 years old, who passed away to his eternal rest last Thursday morning. As a soldier we knew him, as a soldier he passed away. He was always the same: cheerful, quick to respond to a joke, ready to take one; ready to give in time of trouble, ready to help whenever he was needed in a big place or a little one. His memory will live on.”

Local officials say business is thriving in Lake George Summer weather, economy credited By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Commercial activity this summer in Lake George is off to a robust start, municipal officials and business owners reported Monday. Lake George Town Board member Vinnie Crocitto, owner of both Lake George Super 8 Motel and the Lake Motel, said business was brisker this summer than last year, up about 15 to 20 percent. “Business is much stronger this year than last summer,” he said. “Good weather is key.” Lake George Supervisor Frank McCoy said that Smith Travel Report, a national gauge of economic activity for accommodations, showed that business was up 9 percent over 2009 in Warren County during the Fourth of July weekend, and hotels and motels in lake George were filled to 96 percent of their capacity, on an overall average this year. “I haven’t seen this many vacationers for five years or so,” he said. “On the Fourth of July, the village was jammed.” McCoy reported that after the Fourth of July fireworks show, traffic snarls in the village had motorists backed up for three or more hours. He said some visitors weren’t able to exit the village by car until after 1 a.m. Lake George Village Mayor Robert Blais reported last week that the village’s water
Visitors and tourists flocked to Lake George Village for the July 4th weekend, which included a variety of activities in the region, including the traditional fireworks and craft festival. Depicted are vehicles jamming Canada Street at about 9:30 p.m. Sunday July 4. Photo by John Lustyik
treatment plant pumped 1.4 million gallons on July 5 — close to record amounts — and a little less in the adjacent days. Sewage and
water flows have traditionally been a reliable indicator of the size of crowds in Lake George.
Scott Wood, owner of the Lobster Pot Restaurant credited the warm weather for the influx of visitors and the thriving commerce. “We’ve seen a lot of big families here this year,” Wood said. “On Memorial Day business was very good.” Warren County has reported that bed tax has increased 11.8 percent in June over June 2009. Area tourism officials have said that the offerings and facility upgrades that are ongoing in Lake George have contributed to the tourism growth. County Supervisors have credited the county tourism department’s new marketing techniques, including their video on demand, interactive advertising, Internet presence and email blasts as being key factors in the growth. Area tourism officials have also said that in an uncertain economy, vacationers tend to rediscover nearby destinations they might have once overlooked, and Lake George is close to millions of people who are eager to enjoy an active, affordable getaway. One thing they all agree on, is that weather is a major factor in ringing the cash register. The prevailing hot, sunny weather lately has lured thousands of additional visitors to lake George, seeking a respite from the heat. John Carr, owner of the Moose Tooth Grill and Adirondack Pub & Brewery, distilled the heat-tourism relationship into a few words on Tuesday. “June’s weather was one of the best on record,” he said noting that his business receipts were up about 20 percent. “And warm weather mean people drink more beer — that’s my theory.”

16 - ADIRONDACK JOURNAL • THURMAN
I have received numerous calls and heard many versions of the special town board meeting held June 29, but until the pending resignations of the two top town officials are accepted by the remainder of the board, I will remain silent about all the uproar. However,many Thurmanites want to know what has happened to our town, known as “Almost Heaven.” Remember when things were peaceful and neighbors helped neighbors in stead of bickering and launching personal attacks? Can we ever gain it back? A mistake was noticed in the July 2 Post-Star write up of the meeting, referring to Ruth Keller as a “town board member.” Keller has not been on the board for some time.
July 17; Rosalie Haskell, Bernie Monroe Sr., Anthony Rawson, Maria Ligon, Austin Cooper and Beverly Johnson on July 18; William Cox on July 19; Patti Baker on July 21; and Walt Baker, Chad Holbrook and Millie Dibble on July 22. Get well wishes are out to Debbie Collignon, Diane Wood, Bea Bevins, Floyd Baker, Jackie Dingman, Don Vopleus, Kermit Baker, Elmer Buyce, Ken Ackley and Wanda Wood. How can anyone win two different times in contests which are a few weeks apart? (There is some good news in Thurman after all!). This gentleman, not wanting to brag, asked to remain anonymous. He won a 46-inch television in a national contest, and later, when taken out for dinner, won an outdoor grill from the host restaurant.

Political uproar new to ‘Almost Heaven’
Other townsfolk have also left their posts
T
hurman has been on the front page of the daily paper so often lately that I’m sure people from a wide area now know where Thurman is located. The simultaneous resignation of the town supervisor and his deputy are the talk of the region. But these are not the only folks who threw in the towel this year and left their elected and appointed positions. Besides town board member Jim Ligon and Supervisor Lawrence “Red” Pitkin leaving office, there have been several others exiting recently: former town Historian Robin Croissant, former Tax Collector Eileen Baker, Town Secretary and Bookkeeper Susan Sheplar, Secretary Nancy Beadnell, town Cemetery Committee member Robin Croissant —and more who have resigned positions to health problems or family matters. There’s also Maria Ligon, the dedicated member of the Youth Commission who brought us all those great parties this year — she was voted off the panel by the town board. Gone are the days when one trusted person held the same position for years and years. Why? Now the same citizens demand influence and control over how civic organizations or town business is run or how events are held in town — or at least they want to air their gripes about it. Are their opinions better than the old way of doing things? Maybe. But it doesn’t appear any better with so many resignations occurring over the past year. I think back to the years when the late Jean Reynolds organized and ran the Jack Wax Party, planned the Children’s Christmas Party, helped with the Old Home Days Celebration, and for a few years was a Girl Scout Leader, a tax collector and organized the annual Christmas Bazaar. She did so much more in planning for this town and was well-liked. Others did not air criticisms or try to undermine her work. She no doubt was an exception, but I can’t believe that there are not others in town now who could take over some of these activities and events. Some of those who are making accusations and criticizing others should stop trying to be noticed or worry about control, and simply offer to help and lend a helping hand without changing the old traditions. Why do so many people think their ideas are so much better? Now would be a good time to remember and live by the Golden Rule!

A big moose has been seen around dusk wandering through some of the grassy fields in the Bowen Hill region.So far as of July 1 it hasn’t come in contact with anyone or stayed long enough to visit, so we’re not sure if its a male or female.
Murrays welcome baby boy John and Terry Murray of Glens Falls are proud to announce the birth of a baby boy, born Tuesday June 29 at Glens Falls Hospital.

Geri Howe enjoyed her Fourth of July birthday with her son and his family making a trip up from Long Island to help in the celebration. Russ and Nerida and son Ryan decided that a relaxing dinner at home would be the way to go on such a busy weekend. They gathered at the Mud St. homestead with family friend Cliff Dureau of Sky-Hy Road joining in. The delicious dinner was lovingly prepared by Geri’s daughter-in-law Nerida. Everyone enjoyed the day. Filomena Riviello of Garnet Lake Road and Ron Rosati enjoyed a long weekend in Long Island over the July 4th holiday and visited her sister and family, Mary Jo and Pasquale Fortuna and children Francesco and Isabella. Other family members joined them July 4 to join in the celebration of Isabella’s 10th birthday at the party held at her parents’ home.

Hundreds of food enthusiasts are expected to attend the third annual “A Taste of Diamond Point” community fest to be presented Saturday, July 24 by the friends, volunteers and congregation of the Diamond Point Community Church. Eleven Diamond Point area establishments will be offering samples of their cuisine noon to 2 p.m. under tents set up on the grounds of the church, located at 3699 Lake Shore Drive. Church members will be selling tickets for $1 each which “tasters” will use to purchase food samples. Establishments near the church have been invited to join in the event, which last year brought more focus to the activities available at the seasonal church and provided a culinary festival highlighting area businesses. Church Trustee Jan Hayden said this is the only fundraiser the church will sponsor this year. In 2009, the church raised more than $2,400 during the festival. As an added aspect of the event, the food establishments in the festival will be competing for a trophy for collecting the most tickets. Tasters can vote for their favorite establishments by purchasing samples from their booth. This is also a

Summer heat brings schools of bass The heat of the summer arrived in the Adirondacks last week, bringing with it a mix of brilliant sunshine, soaring temperatures, high humidity and a series of passing thunderstorms. The string of 90-plus, degree days drove many local residents to the rivers and lakes seeking relief from the heat. At the same time, the warmer temperatures drove both bass and trout to the deeper waters looking for colder, more oxygen rich conditions. Across the region, residents and visitors alike flocked to the beaches, boat launches and local swimming holes. It was a good week to enjoy the outdoors. Obviously, New Yorkers have been visiting their local waters quite regularly, for even though NY state residents do not have an opportunity to enjoy a full four seasons of water based recreation. Despite this fact, New York has been ranked among the top ten boating states in the country according to the National Marine Manufacturers Association, (NMMA). As expected, Florida heads the new list of top ten boating states with annual boat sales of $1.2 billion in 2009. The study reveals that New Yorkers invested over $381 million dollars on boats and boating related recreation last year. Following Florida on the Top 10 list are Texas, California, North Carolina and New York, with Lake Champlain being named the most popular destination. Louisiana, Washington, Delaware, Michigan and Minnesota round out the top ten. Listing the state’s Hot Spot as Lake Champlain, NMMA noted, “Spanning 120 miles from Quebec to Whitehall, Lake Champlain is renowned for its beautiful scenery and boating opportunities, particularly fishing - named one of the top five bass fishing destinations in the U.S. by FLW Outdoors magazine.” The Big Lake also ranks very high on a list of the most productive bass waters in the country, a fact that will not be missed by the college crowd; who will arrive this weekend to participate in a major bass tournament on the National Guard FLW College Fishing, Northern Division Series. These anglers give a new meaning to the term a ‘School of Bass’. Scheduled for Saturday, July 17, the National Guard FLW College Fishing bass tournament is the third of four stops in the Northern Division Series. Other stops in the Northern Division Include Mt. Island Lake, in Mount Holly, NC, the River
in Marbury, MD and Lake Erie in Erie, PA. But the college boys (and girls) competing in the series won’t be competing for just cash and a trophy. The winning team in the National Guard FLW College Fishing National Championship will also qualify for the Forrest Wood Cup, one of the most prestigious bass-fishing championships in the nation with a top prize of $600,000. The winning team member with the heaviest total weight in the National Guard FLW College Fishing National Championship will have the opportunity to compete in the pro division and the other member of the winning team will compete in the co-angler division of the Forrest Wood Cup. FLW Outdoors provides boats and drivers for each competing team along with travel allowances. All participants must be registered, full-time undergraduate students at a four-year college or university and members of a fishing club recognized by their college or university. The top five college teams from each tournament will qualify for the regional championship where the firstplace team wins $25,000 cash for their school and a bass boat for their fishing club. The top five teams from each regional advance to the national championship where the first-place team wins $50,000 for their school and $25,000 cash and a bass boat for their fishing club. “The lake is full of bass,” said FLW Tour pro Pete Gluszek, who has a win and two top 10 finishes on Lake Champlain. “The unique thing about Lake Champlain in July is that the tournament can be won with either small or largemouths. ”The largemouth will be in the grass and flippin’ and froggin’ will be the way to catch them. The smallmouth will be deeper and drop-shotting in 40–50 foot depths will be key.” The college anglers will take off from Plattsburgh Boat Basin located at 5 Dock Street in Plattsburgh at 6 a.m. Weigh-in will be held at the boat basin as well beginning at 1 p.m. Takeoffs and weigh-ins are free and open to the public.
Bass, both smallmouth and largemouth are abundant in the North Country, as evident in this shot of a happy angler. Plattsburgh State which supports a bass team, has a boat entered in the Northern Series. Currently, the 2010 ranked college bass teams in the country include 1. North Carolina State University, 2. Auburn University, 3. University of North Carolina – Charlotte, 4. Virginia Tech and 5. University of Wisconsin – Madison.
Another good one….gone. It is with great sadness that I note the recent passing of another extraordinary, North Country outdoorsman. Marshall Fish of Westport died last week. Although renowned as a gunsmith, a trade he practiced for over 65 years, Marshall was also a crack shot and a wise mentor. His marksmanship skills with a rifle were once featured in Ripley’s Believe It or Not, when Marshall cut a playing card in half, edgewise, while shooting over his shoulder and taking aim with the aid of a handheld mirror. His abilities in dealing with sportsmen and women were no less skilled and he aided many outdoor enthusiasts in the pursuit of their hobbies. Marshall was always a great source of reliable information and was especially keen on the art of blackpowder shooting, long before the advent of smokeless powder and inline rifles. A longtime collector of Winchester Model 94, lever action carbines, Marshall was especially distraught when we spoke in 2006. He was outraged that U.S. Repeating Arms, under the Winchester brand, had announced that they would no longer manufacture the “gun that won the west.” The company’s move signaled the end of an era, and so does Marshall’s passing.

Glorious day, 170 young anglers mark annual kids fishing derby INDIAN LAKE — The weather gods were shining once again on Adirondack Lake in the Town of Indian Lake during the Indian Lake / Blue Mt. Fish and Game Association’s annual Kids Fishing Derby held July 3. A glorious day, hardly a breeze, as 170 children vied to catch the largest fish that they could coax out of the water. By the end of the day 446 sunfish, perch, pike, and bass had been landed, weighed, tabulated, and returned to the lake. Jaine Smith, 8 years, of Kattskill Bay, NY earned the honor of catching the largest fish of the day, a 2 pound 1 ounce large mouth bass. In addition to a first place certificate, Jaine was awarded a $30 first prize check and a trophy for the largest fish of the day. The trophy was dedicated in memory of George Nemec of Warrensburg in recognition for all of the support that he had provided to the Kids Fishing Derby in recent years. Saturday was a prolific day for Kim Johnson, Dillsburg, PA, who led the way with catching the most fish from shore, 49. Other first place winners were Kyle Williams Jr., North Syracuse, NY who brought in the largest (and only one of day) bullhead; Chase Hutchins, Indian Lake and Tim Lutz, Anoramdale, NY tied for largest perch. A few rock bass were caught with Jack Tunkel, Pennington, NJ

narrowly winning with a nine ouncer. In the small mouth category, a thirteen ounce bass caught by Will Sullivan, Great Meadows, NJ led the pack. First and second prize certificates and modest cash prizes were awarded to kid fishers for each species of fish caught. While everyone could not win a first prize, every child who entered was a winner. The expectation after tossing a line in the water was really reward enough. Many children caught fish and enjoyed the thrill of bringing the fish to the colorful weigh stations where members of the Fish & Game Association took great care to treat each fish as a potential prize winner. An ongoing casting contest awarded multiple fishing lure prizes for tossing a lure into a floating ring, raffles provided prizes throughout the morning for all kid fishers and a grand raffle at the derby’s end awarded over 30 rod and reel combinations. All this plus over 450 hamburgers & hot dogs, and soft drinks provided free to participants and their adult supervisors. An ice cream wagon provided a cool treat at mid-morning. Funds for the derby were provided by local businesses, Fish and Game Association member donations, friends of kids fishing, and a few out of town and national companies. This year, the Indian Lake Community Yard Sale made a significant donation as well. Many parents new to the derby were gratefully incredulous that the entire day was without cost. The generosity of all of the donors and the dedication of the Fish and Game Association members and friends who work at the derbies has resulted in an annual event unrivaled in the North Country. The Indian Lake/Blue Mountain Lake Fish and Game Association, Inc. is an organization dedicated to the promotion of better fishing and hunting, sportsmanship, and conservation including training and support of youth activities associated with these goals. Instruction in the proper handling of firearms and the support of legislation pertaining to the use and ownership of firearms are important values to the Association. Membership is open to any person who has similar interests and is willing to support the Association through occasional volunteering of time to help further the Associations' goals. You may contact the Association by writing to Box 521, Indian Lake, NY 12842.
