Local soldier retires from White House security team
Duell welcomed back to town By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — There’s a mahogany plaque bearing a U.S. Presidential seal in Darren Duell’s house that represents considerable pride on behalf of Duell, his family and local citizens. It bears his credentials as a member of the White House security team. For years he used this identification booklet to gain access to the White House and places top U.S. officials visited. Now, the credentials are now affixed to the honorary plaque as a memento. Duell, 37, just retired from the Navy after a 20-year career, most recently as a member of the White House Communications Agency. Although he won’t get specific about his work, apparently he worked on an advance team of military officials that secures sites and sets up communications apparatus whenever a U.S. president goes on a trip. He’s been is Washington D.C. since 2008 working on the White House security team on behalf of the De-

partment of Defense. On July 17, dozens of Duell’s friends and neighbors attending an open house congratulated him for his two decades of service to the nation. This retirement celebration was held at the American Legion Post on River Street. Among those attending were his parents, Rusty and Donna Duell and Darren’s brother Doug Duell, principal of Warrensburg High School. Duell said this week he is happy to be retiring from the military and returning to his hometown, where his wife and children have been situated for several years. “I enjoyed my Navy career,” Duell said. “I had the opportunity to go a lot of places, and I did a lot of things.” Soon after graduating from Warrensburg High School in 1990, Duell enlisted in the Navy. In the Navy, he learned how to maintain computer equipment used in cryptology — the field of encrypting data and interpreting coded messages — plus how to maintain and repair high-

WCS offers early retirement to several of its employees By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — A program that boosts incentives for particular teachers to retire early was approved July 12 by the Warrensburg School District Board of Education. The board approved offering one of two retirement incentive programs approved earlier this year by the state as a potential cost-saving measure. The board decided to offer the state’s “Part A” program which allows the school district to offer the incentive to particular unionized employees who are at least 50 years old and have 10 years of service or more. The program is for both faculty members and non-teaching positions. The school board has targeted six teaching positions and five non-instructional positions, and two employees so far have accepted the offer, according to Warrensburg Central School District manager Cindy Turcotte. If all employees in the targeted positions take up the offer, savings to taxpayers is expected to be about $150,000,

ALBANY — A law that will allow nurses and emergency medical responders to draw blood for alcohol screening gained final legislative approval Thursday. Named after local Olympian Jack Shea – who was killed in a car accident in 2002 – the law closes what its proponents see as a loophole in state drunk driving laws. Previously, only medical doctors could draw blood for analysis. Warren County District Attorney Kate Hogan, President of the New York State District Attorneys Association, said the measure would help boost public safety. “This bill closes a loophole
that permitted drunk drivers from escaping prosecution,” Hogan said. “We now have the ability to present evidence of intoxication that previously was precluded because of an antiquated technicality.” Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague said the revision to the law has been a long time coming. “This is absolutely wonderful. It’s been eight years in the making,” she said. “Now the statute allows anyone who is duly licensed by the state to draw blood. It takes out that loophole that has caused a lot of injustice throughout the state.” Although the driver who collided with Shea registered a blood alcohol content of .15 – nearly twice the legal limit – the results were thrown out
because a doctor was not present for the screening. Republican State Senator Charles Fuschillo drafted the legislation. “Legal loopholes should not allow drunk drivers who cause crashes and kill innocent people to escape prosecution,” Fuschillo said. “There are numerous licensed health professionals who are fully trained to take blood to determine alcohol content without the presence of a physician.” The bill was co-sponsored by Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward and Janet Duprey and state Senator Betty Little. It was easily endorsed by the Senate in March. The bill has been sent to Governor David Paterson for final approval.

would have been offered to all employees. About 75 or so employees would have been eligible. The board decided not to offer this program because it likely wouldn’t benefit the district or taxpayers, Turcotte said. Warren County voted to not opt into either early retirement programs, after calculating they’d likely boost personnel costs — although in some positions, a replacement employee could be hired at a lower cost. Also at the July 12 meeting, the school board re-elected its president, John MicGlire, and its vice president, Dean Moore. The seven-member board currently includes Richlene Morey, Linda Baker-Marcella, James Carrion, Beth Callahan and Laura Dana in addition to MicGlire and Moore. The board was reduced in July, after the public voted in May to reduce the board membership from nine to seven upon the term expirations of retiring board members Al Smith and Brian Lace.

after factoring the cost of replacement employees hired at a lower cost. Turcotte said three of the positions targeted would not call for hiring replacements. According to Turcotte, the savings is expected to increase over time, because the state charges the district to offset a portion of the additional retirement costs. The incentive is granting an early retiree one month’s additional service credit for each year worked, up to a maximum of three years. Such credits boosts a retiree’s pay, depending on their longevity and pay level. The employees must accept the offer by Aug. 10 and then retire by Aug. 31 to receive the additional service credit. Those who accept the offer give up the local incentive, which is getting paid for up to 200 accumulated sick days. The board decided not to enact the “Part B” retirement incentive, which was the second option of a state retirement offering municipalities and school districts could extend to their employees who were 55 and older with 25 years of service. This plan, according to state rules,

public to offer suggestions in how to deal with the birds. In the past several decades, however, Warrensburg residents and visitors have celebrated the birds, even erecting a “Duck Crossing” road sign and constructing a duck shelter and feeding station on Water Street, across the river and downstream a ways from the Fred Flynn park. Those who have ideas on humane bird control are asked to call town supervisor Kevin Geraghty and inform him of potential solutions.
Motels in Warrensburg hosting sex offenders must now be licensed WARRENSBURG — Motels or inns in Warrensburg that house sex offenders must now obtain a $3,000 license and display it prominently in their lobby, according to a law enacted July 14 by the Warrensburg Town Board. The new law, effective immediately, applies to sex offenders living at local trailer parks, campgrounds, boarding houses, rooming houses, rehabilitation facilities, or bed and breakfast accommodations. Hosting sex offenders without obtaining the license would subject accommodation owners to stiff fines. The law is similar to the one enacted recently by the towns of Lake George, Lake Luzerne and Queensbury. At the public hearing July 14 held on the law, a local citizen asked if establishments would be required to tell callers making reservations they house registered sex offenders. Town officials replied only if accommodation clerks are asked such information, are they required to provide it. It was also revealed at the meeting currently 22 registered sex offenders live in the town of Warrensburg, and several have recently resided in motels on State Route 9.
Solution sought for fowl problem The town board members also discussed the problem of local wild geese and ducks depositing excrement in the Fred Flynn Memorial Park, which includes a memorial to those who served in various wars. The board members said the fowl were creating a mess at the park and degrading the area. One resident raised concerns that the fowl might spread unhealthy bacteria, constituting a threat to children. The board members asked the

He was also charged with Consumption of Alcohol in a vehicle, and Unsafe Lane Change. • Gary Paul LaRose, 57, of 163 River St., Warrensburg, was in court recently answering a charge of second degree Reckless Endangerment. Police said that about 9:30 p.m. June 13, he discharged a Winchester 30.30 rifle he had offered for sale, and it fired into the floor of his second-floor apartment while the first floor apartment below was occupied. Police said he fired the gun under the influence of alcohol, and he didn’t check to see if the weapon was safe and unloaded. A witness at the scene said LaRose had said, “This is what I can do to somebody,” right before he discharged the weapon into the floor. LaRose had told police he was selling the gun because he needed cash to pay for a DWI offense, they said. He had told the responding police he had consumed a few beers and could fix the floor with some putty.

Ceiling collapses in county’s new office building By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com
The ceiling in Warren County's Office of the Aging lobby collapsed July 16, shutting down the county’s new Human Services building for most of the day while workers and officials investigated to determine whether a similar problem with ceiling support existed elsewhere. The building was reopened at about 3 p.m. that day. Monday, after repairs and inspections were complete, business in the building was back to normal. Photo by Thom Randall
QUEENSBURY — A section of the ceiling in Warren County’s new Human Services building collapsed July 16 — injuring a county employee, and prompting county officials to close the building to the public for most of the day while ceilings throughout the structure were inspected. At about 10 a.m., a female employee was walking through an otherwise empty public lobby of the county Office of the Aging on the first floor when a section of the ceiling collapsed, bringing down ductwork, a fan, and a light fixture as well as ceiling tiles. The area that collapsed was about 12 feet by 20 feet. The tiles weigh about three pounds each; the electrical fixtures and fan are far heavier. The employee, who had a minor injury to her arm and was hit on the head, was transported to Glens Falls Hospital for treatment, county administrator Paul Dusek said, adding she was off Monday, shaken from the incident. Soon after the ceiling fell, the public was barred from the building while of-
ficials scrambled to determine whether the collapse was an isolated incident or if the ceilings throughout the building were deficient and county employees should be evacuated. The responding task force of about a dozen people included county engineers, public works employees and private contractors. The collapse caused wiring to rip out of the ceiling, shutting down lighting in the building’s main lobby — the reception area for both the county Social Services department and county Office of the Aging. At about 1 p.m. that day, Dusek said the problem seemed to be isolated, and the building was reopened to the public at about 3 p.m. The ceiling infrastructure was restored over the weekend. Dusek and a project manager who oversaw construction of the building last year said three pins anchoring wire that suspends the ceiling had sheared off. The project manager, who declined to reveal his name, said the serrated pins, as standard in commercial construction projects, are shot by force into the concrete decking of the floor above to anchor the wire that suspends the
ceiling and fixtures. The sheared off pins caused the ceiling to collapse, which caused electricity to shut down on the building’s first floor. Dusek, who headed the task force, said Monday dozens of random anchor pins throughout the building were tested to make sure they were strong, and they tested so, except for one additional faulty pin, which was replaced, in the building’s main lobby. “We will continue to monitor the ceiling and routinely conduct a survey of it weekly,” he said. Several county workers in the building Friday said they were nervous over the sudden collapse, and that it was very fortunate that no elderly people were in the lobby at the time of the incident. Officials said the anchor pins were likely defective or the recent Canadian earthquake, which had shaken the building, might have weakened the failing pins. The construction of the building, which cost more than $16 million, was completed in November.
Fundraiser will benefit single mother July 31 QUEENSBURY — A fundraiser is being held soon to help a single mother who is battling cancer and is facing hardship because she lost her job—and health insurance — as a result of the illness. The benefit event, to assist Glens Falls native Angela Edmunds Kilmartin, 49, is a chicken barbecue set for Saturday, July 31, at West Mountain Ski Center. To be held from 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., the event includes both a live auction and silent auction of donated new goods and services, live entertainment, a bounce house, a yoga session, and 50-50 raffles. All proceeds are to help Kilmartin with continuing expenses she’s shouldering during her lengthy bout with facial cancer. The auction features Martin Seelye calling the bids, and the “Laugh Yoga” sessions are presented by Tobi Gifford of Lemon Tree Yoga. Auction items received so far include a 10-piece cookware set donated by Rachael Ray; an 11-feet by 13 feet area rug valued at $900 donated by Buy-Low Carpet; a $100 silver ankle bracelet from Scoville's Jewelers; a day’s rental of a lowboy trailer from Falls Farm and Garden; a two-hour pontoon boat ride donated by Schroon Lake Marina; a family pass for six admissions at Ausable Chasm; an original work of art by Irene Magee; two Adirondack chairs given by Windy Baker; a pool opening or closing service call donated by Northern Poolscapes; and many other items and gift certificates. Angela still has several more surgeries and reconstructive surgeries to endure. She had worked for CR Bard for 20 years, but lost her job about 18 months ago due to the continuing illness, according to Debbie Freebern Loomis. Loomis is a member of the group After Cancer Encouragement and Support or ACES, formed by Angela’s relatives, friends and neighbors to raise money for Kilmartin to help offset her financial stress. Loomis’ husband is a cousin of Kilmartin’s. More information about the event and Kilmartin’s battle with the illness are available on the website: www.acesforangela.com. The ACES group can be reached at: a4ateam@hotmail.com. Loomis can be reached at 251-4278. For those not able to attend, donations are welcome, Loomis said, adding that a fund for Kilmartin has been set up at Glens Falls National Bank. “Everyone is invited to attend, and all donations are greatly appreciated,” Loomis said Monday.

Almshouse needs upgrade
E
very almshouse should consist of a group of cottages, each with its own garden, its own lawn and its own home-like atmosphere. No one should be admitted to an almshouse but the respectable and deserving poor, but after they are admitted they should be treated like human beings. Unfortunately in today’s society, this is not the case. Housed in the state’s almshouses for the poor are the epileptic, the feeble-minded, the vagrant, the blind, the crippled, the insane, inebriates, and people with tuberculosis. It is widely felt that to keep these people together is scandalous and they should be segregated according to their various classes. To confine advanced cases of tuberculosis with other patients is intolerable. They should be cared for in hospitals and not in almshouses. (Note…There was an “almshouse,” or “Warren County poor farm,” on the west bank of the Schroon River in Warrensburgh since 1826. The stone building was built in 1860 by Peter Bewel. The residents of the county home worked the county farm to help pay for their own upkeep. The barns on the farm, part of the county home complex, are now incorporated in the Warren County Fairgrounds. The county home stone building was converted decades ago into private apartments.)
Husband drowns as family watches James Robbins, 45, formerly of Hague, drowned Sunday afternoon, July 17, 1910, at Charcoal Bend, on the Poultney River in Vermont, in full view of his wife and two children. He was bathing at the time of the accident with William Marnes of West Haven, Vt. Robbins, who could not swim, ventured too far out in the river where the sandy beach suddenly dropped off into deep water. He called to Marnes that he was drowning and Marnes swam to his rescue, but in the struggle that followed, Robbins was swept away. Besides his family mentioned, he is survived by his mother who lives in Horicon and five siblings.

Editorial was off the mark To the editor: I am submitting this as a response to the Golden Rule opinion article by editor Thom Randall. With due respect to Mr. Randall, who is not a resident of Thurman, nor did he attend the June 15 board meeting when Katherine Schwarz, unbeknownst to her, was terminated from her Youth Program duties, or the June 28 special Board meeting addressing the termination of Mrs. Schwarz, I find it difficult to understand Mr. Randall’s very derogatory, angry comments about the residents of Thurman and those who attended the meeting. Mr. Randall’s description of Thurman residents as backstabbers, by definition (betrayal, as by verbal attack against one not present, especially by a false friend), does not the fit the people Mr. Randall is attacking, the people of Thurman. Speaking for me, and those who were present at the June 29 meeting, whatever concerns we had about the handling of

Might lose a hand for second time Charles Mulligan of Corinth, sustained a serious injury Sunday July 31, 1910, while walking through the parlor of his home. He slipped on a rug and he fell, striking a broken cuspidor. An artery of his left hand was cut and he was taken in Dr. Allen’s automobile to the Saratoga Hospital. It is feared that it will be necessary to amputate the hand. Mulligan lost his right hand several years ago.
Death in the news Carrie Knowlton of Stony Creek is a guest of Mr. and Mrs. Martin L. Messinger of Warrensburgh. She is the widow of F.L. Knowlton who recently died from the effect of injuries suffered in an automobile accident. Mr. and Mrs. William Turner, of South Dakota, formerly of Blue Mountain Lake, announce the death of their two-yearold son, William, who died July 29, 1910. Mrs. Arthur Coon, 19, formerly Miss Ruey Sherman, of Riverside, died Sunday, July 24, 1910. She is survived by her husband and a little daughter, only a few weeks old. She was the daughter of Fred Sherman. William Etson Hitchcock, 57, died June 31, 1910, of cancer of the stomach, at his home in Bakers Mills. He is survived by a widow and one son, Urban Hitchcock and three daughters, Eliza Hull, Bessie Robbins and Ina Hitchcock. Mrs. Oscar Perry, 73, who passed away many years of her life in Warrensburgh, died July 30, 1910, at her home in Newfane, Vt., where she had lived for several years. She was the daughter of Solomon Hayes and was born in the town of Queensbury, April 11, 1837. She is survived by her husband, two sons and two daughters.
Lake George news A survey has been conducted of the motorboats and small steam yachts and it is found that over 500 such craft ply the waters of Lake George.Fully 100 small boats have been launched there this summer. A plot of ground around the grave of Colonel Williams, a short distance south of Lake George, has been bought by Justin Kellogg of Troy, who is a graduate of Williams College. He purchased the land to preserve the grave for the alumni of the college.
Lake George mansion gets facelift Henry E.H. Brereton of New York City and Hill View (Dithe Director ’s position was said to the Supervisor and full Board in a public meeting with their concerns put on public record. Backstabber by definition does fit the actions of Mrs. Ligon and Councilman Jim Ligon, who at the June 15 meeting perpetuated a verbal attack on Ms. Schwarz who was not present at the meeting to defend herself. Mr. Randall’s account of a “shameful development which will hurt the youth of Thurman” is not accurate.The Youth Program began on time with 24 children attending the program. As far as the “slate of activities” for the summer program, I do know that neither Mrs. Ligon’s imagination nor her creativity had anything to do with the agenda. The children who attend the program will enjoy a full schedule of activities minus the craft supplies and foozball table that were removed from the storage building by Mrs. Ligon. Also, as far as the children’s Christmas and Easter parties, I do know these programs have been offered to Thurman children for years through the volunteer efforts of many of the women of Thurman, and I believe that Santa and the Easter Bunny have visited the children of Thurman long before Mrs. Ligon moved to the area. As far as the Golden Rule Mr. Randall wrote of in his article in Adirondack Journal, again, I feel his accusations are misdirected. The Golden Rule by definition (an ethical code that states one has a right to just treatment and a responsibility to ensure justice for others) would not apply to the residents of Thurman, but would again directly apply to Mrs. Ligon, Councilman Jim Ligon and Supervisor Pitkin who left their ethical code at the door of the June 15 meeting when they, by their statements, convinced the remaining board members to terminate Mrs. Schwarz without giving her the justice to defend herself. To portray Thurman residents as backstabbing, shameful and unethical people is completely unfair and unjust. I see it as the people of Thurman demanding their elected officials do follow the Golden Rule. Cathy Mannuci Athol (Editor’s Note: Sincere thanks for your opinions. Please note that my July 10 editorial criticizing personal attacks erupting lately in Thurman was based on developments over the past several months, not just these two meetings. Without a doubt, we at the Journal support a lively, open debate over the issues that nurtures good government.)

amond Point) has razed the Brereton homestead on the Bolton Road and in its stead is to erect a summer home which is to be one of the finest residences of the Bolton Road colony. The house, to be built of stone and stucco, will be about 100 feet in length and the width will vary from 40 to 60 feet. One of the features of the interior will be a large pipe organ. The house should be ready for occupancy next summer. (Note: Four months later, in November 1910, Henry E.H. Brereton was elected to the Assembly as representative from Warren County.)
Local boy makes good Richard Whitby of Glens Falls, formerly of Warrensburgh, who is at present engaged with Edonardes’ 60-piece band at Woodside Park, Philadelphia, has made a decided hit in that city as a trombone soloist. Mr. Whitby has accepted a position at the Murray Hill Theatre to commence in August 1910 in New York City. (Note: For many years, Dick Whitby worked at the Warrensburgh Shirt Factory.)
Home team scores The Maplewoods of Warrensburgh played a star game Saturday July 30, 1910, on the fairgrounds (behind Ashe’s Hotel), defeating the Mohawks of Glens Falls, 5 to 1. The visitors were powerless before Stewart Farrar, who was in the box for the locals. Next Saturday afternoon the Maplewoods will play the Electrics of South Glens Falls.
News roundabout While excavating for the new state road at Luzerne recently, an old sword and shield, in an excellent state of preservation, were unearthed. The relics were engraved with a French name and a date of the middle 18th century. In July 1910, Landlord and Mrs. Ashe have had their hands full at the Agricultural Hotel (now Ashe’s ) in Warrensburgh. The hotel and cottage annex are overflowing on the busiest month of the year. (Note: James H. Ashe came from Thurman and bought the hotel in 1888. His son, Henry “Hank” Ashe ran it after that for many years. Hank married Kate Ahearn in 1891.) George J. Bump of Glens Falls and Miss Leota Duell of Warrensburgh, were married July 30, 1910, by the Rev. L.T. Cole at the Methodist Episcopal parsonage in Chestertown. Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 623-2210 your July 10 edition. I totally agree with all of it! My experience with Red Pitkin at the county level is that he certainly is objective and thoughtful in his decision making. I am sorry to see him go. I am sorriest for the residents of Thurman! Those on the side of good government should have spoken out, but instead the bullies pushed hard to shoot down good government. As I recall, Mr. Pitkin stepped up to the plate when “bad” government got caught and the former town supervisor was ousted. It appears some citizens went into attack mode. This is where Ruth Keller, writer of last week’s letter to the editor, “Don’t vilify those who have courage to speak out” seems to have lost the concept that a “Golden Rule” does exist. You were fortunate to have a dedicated community servant in Red Pitkin. Mr. Pitkin did not step down because of one issue, as Mr. Randall explains in his editorial. As citizens, we do have the right to freedom of expression. As citizens, it is our responsibility to speak with our government; to gripe, rant, suggest, and yes, even praise. How that is done is what Mr. Randall’s editorial was all about, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” I am afraid Ruth Keller missed the point. I invite Red Pitkin to move to Lake George! He represents the kind of honesty all government needs. All communities need to correct the behaviors that are referred to in the Adirondack Journal editorial — two-faced, shifty, underhanded, making deals with unscrupulous people, cutting political deals. These behaviors are unacceptable be they of citizens or public servants! I would welcome kindness and consideration. It lends itself to a peaceful environment and certainly fits in with the Golden Rule. Thank you, Thom, for a great editorial! Joanne Gavin Lake George
Editorial took courage
To the editor: The Randall’s Ramblings column of July 10, titled “Remember The Golden Rule?”, took courage and was right on the money. It is a shame that Thurman has been taken over by folks with axes to grind. We need Mr. Pitkin to run our town. Here our public officials work for themselves and are not accountable for anything or to anyone. William Bormann Stony Creek

To the editor: Definitions of “progress”: the act of moving forward as toward a goal; advancement: gradual improvement or growth or development. Warrensburg town supervisor Kevin Geraghty was recently quoted in the media stating the Citizens for the Future of Warrensburg, who have initiated an Article 78 against the town over proposed Stewart’s store site, “don’t want progress.” Geraghty continued that the town would have to defend their actions regarding the state Environmental Quality Review Act linked to the rezoning of the parcel from residential-professional to hamlet commercial presented by Hudson Headwaters Health Network, and their approval of the site plan presented by Stewart’s Shops for a convenience store/gas station. If you define progress as the movement of an existing business from the commercial end of town to the heart of the Hamlet of Warrensburgh Historic District surrounded by historic residences plus some businesses that will only lose their value and quality of life; if you define progress as allowing pornographic magazines to be sold feet away from a place of worship, Richard Library, and in close proximity to the local elementary school; if you define progress as creating more of a traffic problem — both vehicular and pedestrian — than already exists in this area, which will effect the residential streets that surround the neighborhood; if you define progress as ignoring the severe environmental issues such as groundwater, air, noise and light pollution, and the presence of an underground aquifer that was not reported in the town’s inadequate SEQRA decision; if you define progress as selectively favoring one or more property owners rather than carrying out an objective of the town’s enacted Comprehensive Plan; and if you define progress as devaluating all of the surrounding properties owned by residents and taxpayers, then supervisor Geraghty was correct in stating that Citizens For the Future of Warrensburg do not want progress. The many members of CFW came together in January when the rezoning to accommodate the sale of the parcel by HHHN to Stewart’s Shops was first proposed. These individuals are civic-minded residents, community volunteers and taxpayers. They have donated hundreds of hours of time and money to help guide the town in the appropriate direction. If the town moves forward with this lawsuit, instead of re-evaluating the process and the mistakes that have been made and correcting them, their decision will cost the taxpayers money. The CFW will, however, continue to donate their time and money to prevent the choices made by the town and planning boards to go any further. All of the efforts made by CFW
Is HHHN ditching us? To the editor: As a former Chairman and member of the Hudson Headwaters Health Network Board of Directors, I'm concerned that HHHN is abandoning its roots. Warrensburg and Chestertown got them started to provide service and jobs to the North Country. They are still providing excellent medical service to this area. However, they have moved offices to Queensbury. With this move they are also having a firm in Maine do their billing and their blood tests go to a laboratory in Plattsburgh. This change has taken jobs out of Warrensburg. To make matters worse, they want to allow a gas station to occupy the property that should have been their offices. This property is in the middle of an historic district and close to the elementary school and recreation field—with lots of pedestrian and vehicle traffic, it would be dangerous if gas station traffic is added to the mix. Since the taxpayers are providing the buildings and paying expenses of maintaining these facilities, they should not take their business out of town and should be aware of the safety of our people. Dorothea Potter Warrensburg
Sheriff patrol responds! To the editor: About a week ago, I had to call the Warren County sheriff four days in a row to have pilots of “anchored” boats in Orcutt Bay warned. Each call brought a courteous response and the patrol boat arrived promptly to handle the situation. Everyone who lives on Lake George or uses the lake should be thankful for such a courteous, competent patrol headed by the county sheriff. My many thanks for such a responsive group enforcing the law. Alan Knipe Cannon Point, Lake George

WHAT’SHAPPENING
Soldier Continued from page 1 frequency direction finder devices — arrays of antennas that detect the location of covert radio transmissions. This work landed him on Diego Garcia Island in the middle of the Indian Ocean, several stints in Winter Harbor Maine, Rota, Spain and Biloxi, Miss., and Sugar Grove, West Virginia. It was during his stint in Sugar Grove maintaining computer systems that he met his wife Diane, who was a cryptology technology officer. They married in December 2004 and she left the service. The two had twins and she settled in Warrensburg to raise the children, with Duell visiting as often as he could. Most recently, he has focused on maintenance of computer networks for security and communications and that’s the field in which he’ll be seeking employment, Duell said. Undoubtedly, he’ll be enjoying recreational activities that he participated in while in the military — softball, flag football and volleyball. In high school, Duell was a starting pitcher in baseball, and he was active on the football and basketball teams as well. Also, Duell will be pursuing the outdoor activities he said he loves. “It’s good to be getting back to my fishing and hunting,” he said. Duell added he’s happy to be at home with his family. He said although he and Diane could choose to raise their family anywhere, they’ve chosen to return to Warrensburg, for its school and the community spirit. “I’ve been looking forward to being home here with my family, instead of being a weekend dad,” he said.

The Jamboree’s continued success is because it offers such a wide variety of activities for people of all ages, Fire Co. president Kevin Geraghty said. The adults annually enjoy the fun of placing bets on the roulette-style money wheels, attempting to multiply their handfuls of cash, or apply their skill and luck at the blackjack tables. The children traditionally amuse themselves with carnival rides and a midway. There’s an entrance donation of $3 each day. Saturday, gates open at 5 p.m. as the Warrensburg firefighters grill up their famous chicken barbecue. Appearing for the children — before The Refrigerators and during the band’s intermission — will be ventriloquist Bob Carroll and Roscoe the Clown. Saturday’s events include fireworks at dusk — a colorful 30-minute show, Geraghty said. “The Jamboree is the longest standing event in the North Country — it’s remained very popular through the years,” he said. “We like to see people come out have a good time, meet friends they haven’t seen for a while, and enjoy the music, games, auction and other events.”
Two area teenagers take a shot in an arcade game offered at the 2009 edition of the Smoke Eaters’ Jamboree, a fundraiser for the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co. The event, a tradition in the North Country for 48 years, attracts hundreds for the games, rides, midway, auction, fireworks, and barbecue. Photo by John Lustyik

CHESTERTOWN • ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 13
New Chester art gallery sparks activity downtown By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — Fine art has a new home in northern Warren County, and it’s prompted some excitement. Northern Warren County’s new fine art gallery, “Art in Chestertown,” was well received when it opened to the public July 15, featuring the work of local and regional artists. Almost 100 people toured the new gallery, sponsored by the North Country Arts Center, which has been operating without a dedicated exhibit space for decades. Artist Heidi Maxwell of Chestertown, who lives a mere two blocks away from the gallery, said it was a welcome addition to town. Maxwell has a large monochromatic pastel work on exhibit in the gallery. “This turned out beautiful,” she said, noting that for hundreds of years, artists have been a prominent ele-
ment in the Adirondacks. “It’s nice to have an exhibit space again for local artists‘ work, particularly in Chestertown.” Prominent in launching the new gallery was painter Fred Holman of Brant Lake, a board member of the arts center. Holman dreamed up the idea for the new gallery, NCAC board member Jon Segan of Fort Edward said. Segan has works on exhibit in the gallery — novel shadowbox artwork that combines architectural artifacts combined with paintings of women that resemble Renaissance portraits. “Fred thought, ‘Why not get art back into the North Country,’ and we said, ‘See what you can do,’ and the outcome is amazing,” Segan said. Holman and NCAC board president Linda Buerkley arranged the initial exhibit last week, setting the works along the floor of the gallery walls, while some curious
passersby walked into the gallery to observe, Holman said. “Usually, exhibit openings attract primarily relatives and friends of the artists,” he said. “But here today, we had people coming in from off the streets and neighboring communities.” Buerkley, who has monotypes on display, said she enjoyed her role in arranging the exhibit. “The artwork was so inspiring, it was easy to put together,” she said. “This gallery now offers a great opportunity for area artists — there’s so much talent up here.” Photographer Kim Ladd of Thurman said she was impressed by the work presented. “It’s good to have an outlet for artwork here — a place where people can exchange their ideas,” she said. Artist Ann Rohe of Thurman also said the gallery would add a needed element
to the town. She has two paintings on display at the gallery. “This gallery is a good idea for Chestertown,” she said. Wildlife Artist Joyce Cleveland of Bolton Landing, who has her works on display, said the gallery, located in the former Harness Shop, has already made waves among artists and art enthusiasts ”People are excited there’s a gallery here again,” she said. The shop will be open Thursday through Monday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and will offer dozens of paintings and
sculpture for sale — and browsers are welcome, Holman said. Mary Jane Dower, chairwoman of the Chestertown Main Street Enhancement Committee, welcomed the news of the gallery’s opening. “This is a wonderful addition to our downtown and I wish the gallery continued success,” she said. Barbara Wilson, an artist from Chestertown who’s on the Arts Center board added her kudos. “This gallery is certainly a boost to what was becoming
a ghost town,” she said. Last Thursday, with the number of visitors to the gallery, downtown Chester didn’t resemble a ghost town, however. That evening, Terry Wyant sat in an Adirondack chair and greeted pedestrians walking down Main Street. Wyant created birch bark and stick frames containing the photographs of her husband Ed that are on display. “It’s so nice to have exhibit space up here in this community,” she said, enjoying conversations with passersby.

Moose dies in Dannemora L
ast week, residents of Dannemora were excited to learn of a large moose feeding from a bird feeder in the side yard of a local residence on the General Leroy Manor Road. In the heat of the day, as temperatures topped the 90-degree mark, a large crowd of on-lookers gathered along the highway while attempting to get a glimpse of the massive animal. The numerous cars parked along the roadside soon drew the attention of the state police, who dispersed the crowd of spectators. The moose apparently appeared to be in distress and when it later collapsed, troopers called the Department of Environmental Conservation. A state DEC wildlife biologist responding to the scene found a yearling moose that was believed to have died from heat stroke. Upon examination, the biologist reported the young, bull moose had an internal body cavity temperature of 107 degrees. It was believed to have died of heat stroke, which typically sets in when body temperatures reach 104 degrees. Moose are a circumpolar, boreal species. They are typically found in the cooler climates of boreal forest areas across the Northern Hemisphere. While they thrive in such cold weather environments, moose are easily stressed by overheating, and by other factors such as predators, or the prying eyes of spectators.

They don’t do well in situations where there is a combination of high heat and humidity. In such conditions, they prefer spending time in water. However, it wasn’t heat that did him last week. The necropsy performed by DEC revealed the true cause of death was brain worm, a neurological disease commonly transmitted by whitetailed deer. By DEC estimates, there are currently between 500 to 600 moose in the state. Brainworm is a major concern, according to DEC wildlife biologist Ed Reed, who explained, “Brainworm is still a problem. That’s probably why the moose in Dannemora was still wandering around in the heat. We’ve been seeing problems with brain worm primarily in areas with high deer densities such as Rensselaer and Washington counties, where the deer density is greater than 8-10 animals per square mile. ” “Deer have brain worm but it doesn’t affect them as it does moose. Deer pass the nematode in their feces, where it is picked up by snails, which act as a host”, Reed revealed, “And they [snails] deposit it on the leaves and grass.” Moose, which are primarily browsing animals that eat the leaves, twigs, and buds of hardwood and softwood trees. It is easy to see how the animals can contract brain worm, which frequently causes cerebrospinal nematodiasis, a disease of the nervous system, that often, results in death. They can consume nearly 40-60 pounds of browse every day. Fortunately for moose, the deer density in the Adirondacks ranks among the lowest in the entire state. It is one of the major factors responsible for their return and ultimate survival. In fact, the moose that died in Dannemora may not have been a local resident, since the animals are known to travel great distances. The animal’s tendency to range far and wide has created additional problems. Due to their propensity to travel, a moose could be in Washington County one week and in Clinton County by the next. This ranginess is also responsible for the ever growing danger of vehicle/moose collisions. This is some good news for people that happen to experience a close encounter with a moose while driving, as the New York State Legislature has amended section 11-0915 of the Environmental Conservation Law concerning the disposition of moose carcasses resulting from vehicle collisions. The revised amendment now allows people who accidentally
Moose, such as this one photographed in a garden in downtown Lake Placid last year, have become a common sight in the Adirondacks in recent years. They have been known to frequent residential areas, as the photograph confirms. kill a moose and damage their motor vehicle, to obtain a permit that allow them to keep the carcass. While the measure offers little consolation for wrecking their car, a large quantity of moose steaks and burgers can certainly serve supplement the family budget while the car is undergoing repair.
