QUEENSBURY — Warren County Superintendent of Public Works Jef f Tennyson glanced out a window at the county Municipal Center at sunny blue skies. “If the weather stays like this through Mid-December, we’ll be in good shape,” he quipped. For several months, the county has endur ed storms more violent and damaging than has been experienced in the r egion for hundr eds of years. Warren County’s roads — which suffered considerable damage from the heavy Memorial Day weekend rains, then three months later from Tropical Storm Ir ene — will be safe and sound by this winter, Tennyson pr edicted Monday, Sept. 26. Damage to county and town government infrastructure, including r oadways and bridges, totalled about $13 million for Memorial Day weekend alone, according to county Emergency Se rvices C oordinator Amy Dr exel. Federal financial help for these damages has been rejected, but is still under discussion.

Cancer survivor seeks to reach out to others By Thom Randall

he said — and things that he once consider ed stressful, now seem merely trivial, he said. “I now realize that every little moment is precious — being able to wake up, be with my kids, then dr op them of f to school feels so good.” Soon after his diagnosis, Angell participated in a mission work trip with his daughter Julie and a group from the local St. Cecilia’s Catholic Chur ch to Charlotte, North Carolina. They landscaped and painted a home for unwed mothers. His wife Diane said he had made the commitment to go, and he wanted to participate to help others in need despite his impending treatment. A few weeks after his chemotherapy began, he decided to reach out to others who
had also been diagnosed with cancer. Fighting recurring nausea and fatigue, he for months visited other cancer victims, to give t hem s ome c omradeship a nd p rovide solace. “If someone with cancer hears from someone who got thr ough the tr eatments, it is a heck of an encouragement boost,” Angell said. “It’s like, ‘If he can do it, I can too.’” Angell added he is now also more attuned of other ’s af flictions after experiencing an outpouring of caring and concern from oth-

WARRENSBURG — With his daughters and wife, Diane, nearby involved in cheerleading practice, Brian Angell sat down on a park bench Monday, Sept. 26 on the grounds of Warrensburg Elementary School, for a few moments of reflection. The next day, he was headed back to work for the first time since a fateful day in May 2010, when he was doubled over with pain at work as a technician for Million Air, a fixed-base operator at Albany Airport that serves charter and private air craft. On that day, Angell, in his early 50s, ended up at the hospital — and soon after had his appendix removed. But after the emer gency operation, doctors gave him grim news: he had stage four cancer of the colon and appendix, which had already spread to his lymph nodes. The news was particularly gripping, he said, because his father died at age 52 of colon cancer. The news sent his life into a tailspin, and a rigor ous, gut-wr enching r egimen of chemotherapy ensued. For months, he endured repeated series of hospital treatments followed by home-based chemothera py in which chemicals wer e pumped into his arteries continuously for two days. The regimen left him intermittently sick, weak and numb in the limbs. His treatments stopped in December , but his body and its immune system took time to ecover, r he said. In the meantime, his life gained a new focus, he said as he gazed off into space. He’s mor e awar e and appr eciative of bonds with family, friends and community,
ers in the community . In October , people from all walks of life filled the Masonic Hall for a fundraiser to boost the Angell family’s spirit and finances. “People have been so thoughtful and helped us out so much,” Angell said. “This support from the community helped us out tremendously.” Experiencing that support, he said, prompted him to re ach out more often to others in need, including attending fundraising events for people facing har dships, like his family had. “Before, I may have thought I was too busy to go, and now I make sur e I attend,” he said. Angell noted that his two daughters, Julie, 15 and Kelly 1 1, both helped out at home when he was bedridden. Julie cut the grass for her dad, while Kelly took on extra chor es. They both kept quiet so their father could sleep or rest. They also devoted extra efforts on their schoolwork, Angell recalled. After finishing with her cheerleading practice Monday, Julie Angell said she had been w orried a bout l osing h er d ad, a s s he knew her grandfather died fr om the same malady. Her dad’s sickness weighed on her , she said. “I missed birthdays and holidays with him,” she said, noting he was hospitalized over Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year ’s Day. “But it’s r eally cool to have him totally back now,” she added, breaking into a grin.

Garage Sale officials cope with logistics, vendors By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — The nationally renowned World’s Largest Garage Sale may have colossal proportions, but at the helm of the 201 1 event Thursday wer e a mer e two people making last-minute arrangements for the event set for Sept. 30 through Oct. 2. Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce President Lynn Smith and the Chamber’s administrative a ssistant, K elsey M cGlinch, w ere busy Sept. 22 setting up logistics for the event that annually swamps the small town of Warrensburg with 70,000 people or mor e over the first weekend in October. Whether it was r eserving 52 porta-johns, answering calls from the public, or settling qualms of vendors, they were taking it all in stride. Immersed in her work, Smith dialed a phone call to Dennis Martinez. He’s assisted her for many years in her 10 or ganizing the big event. “Should I line up those big buses or the smaller ones for Saturday?” she asked Martinez about r eserving school bus es to ha ul people through town at the Sale. “Okay, two big ones on Saturday and two little ones for Sunday, one handicap equipped, right?” Decision made. The phone rang, and McGlinch answer ed it. Smith looked up fr om her lengthy to-do list. “We’ve been getting lots of calls fro m people who ask if the Garage Sale is cancelled because of Hurricane Irene,” she said shaking her head. “Do you believe it? We had no storm destr uction! They must have seen news reports of those motels in Lake Geor ge that were flooded out.” The flood — plus perh aps the stalled economy — has r educed the number of vendors signing up in advance for the W orld’s Largest Garage Sale, Smith said. O ne boat dealer who’s r outinely participated had his entire inventory sunk by Ir ene, so he cancelled, she said. Several other veteran vendors, she added, ar e busy r ebuilding their
valuable possessions on Garage Sale weekend. There are 209 Chamber -sponsored spaces this year at the sale, to be located in the parking lots of the W arrensburg Town Hall, the Warrensburg Health Center , Grand Union shopping center , and Glens Falls National Bank, plus the yards beside the town Senior Citizens’ Center, National Grid, and Grace’s Restaurant. As of Sept. 22,a total of 180 were reserved, but a lar ge number of late r egistrants wer e still reserving sale spots, McGlinch said. One of the callers was a smoked barbecue vendor who claimed he had lost his vendor application — three times, Smith said. “He’s not very organized,” she quipped. These sponsored spaces are joined by hundreds of others on pr operties rented out by local businesses and r esidents, as well as personal yard sales. Among the r elatively new vendors signing up for Chamber spots this year was a man who sells door mats fashioned from recycled tires, an artisan who sells silver jewelry embedded with seashells, and an outfit with Tiffany-style lamps, Smith said as she was assembling instr uction handbooks for In her work Sept. 22 preparing for the World’s Largest Garage sale next weekend, Warrensburg Chamber of the dozens of volunteers who help conduct Commerce president Lynn Smith answers a phone call in the chamber offices.

at the uptown Floyd Bennett Memorial Bandstand. The vendor r egistrations have dropped somewhat this year, event coor dinator Lynn Smith said several days before the sale. But the variety and quality of wares to be of fered have likely increased, she added. “There’s always an incredible turnout, and it’s a fun event,” she said. “It’s a beautiful time of year for people to get out and enjoy the weather while they can.” Smith and others have said the 1,000 or mor e private sales yield a wide variety of treasures. “The r eal bar gains ar e on the side streets from the private pr operty owners,” she said. “Great bargains on collectibles can be found all over town each year.”
Hints for stress-free shopping: Here’s the scoop on how to avoid fr ustration of crushing traf fic and maximizing time bar gain-hunting. •Arrive on Thursday or Friday, check into an ar ea inn or motel, or get into
town before 7:15 a.m. on the weekend. A lot of vendors are setting up befor e the weekend, and the many savvy shoppers who know this ar e getting “first pick” of a wide range of wares. •If you do arrive on the weekend, get into Warrensburg as early as possible, and take the Northway to exits 22, 24 or 25. •Avoid Northway Exit 23, the primary r oad into W arrensburg, since it becomes congested. By 8:30 or 9 a.m. Saturday, traf fic can be backed up for nearly two miles onto I-87 Northway. If you can make it of f Exit 23, take a right turn to go via East Schroon River Rd. and follow signs to a fr ee parking lot at the Warren County Fairgrounds and take a free trolley downtown. •From Northway Exit 22, turn left onto Route 9 and drive just a few miles north to Warrensburg. •From Northway Exit 24, go south on Schr oon River Rd. and park at the fairgrounds where shuttle buses will take visitors in and out of town.
Renowned as the “Granddaddy of All Community Sales,” the World’s Largest Garage Sale returns to Warrensburg this weekend, with its incredible array of new and used goods from vendors as well as items offered at 1,000 or more private garage sales. •Or, fr om Northway Exit 25, head south out of Chestertown on Route 9 into Warrensburg •From Friday Sept. 30 through Sunday Oct. 2, there is no parking on Main St. from the bandstand to Stewart Farrar Avenue, and on Horicon Avenue. Those who disobey this ban may have
their vehicle towed. •Motorists ar e ur ged not to block driveways, fir e hydrants, nor park on private property without permission. •Free handicapped parking can be found beside the Warrensburg Post Of fice on upper Main St. Also, the Warrensburg Volunteer Fir e

New bus schedule needs tweaking
A
s the Cascade Express — a publicly subsidized commuter bus between Saranac Lake and Elizabethtown — gets ready to hit the road for the first time on Oct. 3, we have a serious problem with the shuttle’s schedule, which overwhelmingly favors public servants rather than the public. The launch of a new bus r oute in Essex County makes us take a harder look at public transportation. After all, during this time of economic distr ess, adding government services is certainly not the norm. And as Gov. Cuomo’s 2 percent tax cap looms over the 2012 budget process, many cuts will be on the way. Several counties thr oughout the r egion now have public transportation networks. They he lp s eniors m ake t rips t o s hopping centers, government of fices and doctors’ appointments. They help commuters get to work in distant villages. They give physically challenged riders more independence. We understand that demand for bus routes varies, and we hope government officials are paying close attention to the numbers to make sure taxpayer money is not being wasted. Shuttles with str ong ridership should stay in operation, while those with low ridership should be phased out. Now Essex County T ransportation will have six bus r outes. We have no pr oblem with creating new public bus ro utes, as long as there is sufficient demand from the general public and there is a way to pay for it. The Cascade Expr ess certainly has funding. Essex County was successful in getting a federal Job Access and Reverse Commute (JARC) program grant to help pay for it. And ther e is definitely demand, accor ding to Essex County Transportation Coordinator Nancy Dougal. She’s said ther e were numerous requests for a bus route between Lake Placid and Elizabethtown fr om county workers and people who use county services. Helping county workers with a taxpayer-funded bus is fine, as long as the schedule is designed to accommodate those in the private sector as well. Sadly , this is wher e the Cascade Express falls short. While she was drafting the schedule, Dougal said she was trying toaccommodate people who work a 7-to-3 shift in Lake Placid and Ray Brook and an 8-to-4 shift in Elizabethtown. Her hope, she said, was to give Elizabethtown residents an opportunity to commute to state jobs in Ray Br ook and Tri-Lakes residents a chance to commute to county jobs in Elizabethtown.
October 1, 2011
The Cascade Expr ess schedule does just that. Unfortunately, it excludes anyone in the private sector who works a full-time job in those locations. While the state government defines a fulltime shift as 8.0 hours (7.5 hours plus a 30minute lunch break), the private sector defines a full-time shift as 8.5 hours (8.0 hours plus a 30-minute lunch break). Therefore, someone traveling fr om Lake Placid to Elizabethtown on the Cascade Express can get off the bus at Stewart’s at 7:45 a.m. but has to be back on the bus at Stewart’s by 4:10 p.m. in or der to get home. Workers in private industry starting at 8 a.m. have to be on the clock until 4:30 p.m. to complete their 8-hour day. They can’t use the Cascade Express with its current schedule. This bus schedule should be modified to fit shifts for workers in the private sector . Otherwise, the Cascade Express is simply a taxpayer-funded shuttle bus for government workers. The JARC pr ogram — which pr ovided funding for this bus — was established “to improve access to transportation services to employment and employment related activities for welfare recipients and eligible lowincome individuals.” It was not established to get county and state workers to their offices.

•100 Years Ago – Oct. 1911• Motorcar hits youth in transit Albert Winslow of Luzerne and a companion were riding along the Corinth Road in a farm wagon. The boy jumped fr om his seat into the path of the automobile of R.J. Linehan of Glens Falls. He was struck by the machine and rendered unconscious. Mr. Linehan was traveling along behind the wagon at a rate of about 15 miles an hour and had twice blown his horn in warning that he was about to pass. Young W inslow leaped from the wagon when the automobile was about 10 feet away. The unconscious boy was placed in Linehan’s automobile and taken to Glens Falls Hospital wher e it was found that he had no broken bones.
Hotel builder succumbs Frank Jalet, 37, a native of Whitehall, died suddenly of heart disease Oct. 31, 191 1. He had taken two ladies out in his automobile to inspect some real estate property for sale and he stepped out of the machine to assist them when he r eeled and fell to the gr ound unconscious. He was dead befor e a physician arrived. His r emains wer e taken to Whitehall for burial. Mr. Jalet was formerly a carpenter and contractor. About 1896 he and his father, the late John Jalet of Whitehall, built the new Adirondack Hotel in W arrensburgh. (Note: This big hotel, later called Colonial Arms, stood where Rite Aid stands today. The pharmacy’s facade has a few cues of the original hotel’s architecture.)
Crosby family member dies William H. W yman of Omaha, Nebraska, died in that city Oct. 7, 1911. He was born in Canton, N.Y. and leaves a widow, the former Miss Maude Crosby of Lake George, who is the only surviving member of the family of Francis G. Cr osby, once pr oprietor of the Crosbyside Hotel and one of the most highly r espected citizens of Lake Geor ge. Mr . Wyman had been in the business of fir e insurance since 1854, associated withAetna Insurance. (Note: For many years this couple had lived in Winona, Minn., with Mrs. Wyman’s sister, Miss Louise Crosby who died in 1910. She was a native of Lake Geor ge and her body was brought back there to be buried in the family plot in the village cemetery . The Crosbyside Hotel was originally called the Lake George Young Ladies’ Institute in 1855 before it was later r enamed The United States Hotel. It stood at the head of Lake George and accommodated 200 guests. The hotel even had its own stage which picked up guests at the railr oad station in Glens Falls. The building was destroyed in 1901 by
fire. In 1903, buildings at the site were deeded to Mary Fuller ,who founded W iawaka House, a retreat for women, including those employed in the garment industry in the Troy region. Today, it is known as the oldest continuously operating women’s r etreat in the U.S.)
Ate some, brought some home A party of six consisting of J.H. and W .C. Roberts, J.F . Beckwith, Leslie and Julius Tripp — all of Warrensburgh — and Melvin Baker of Darr owsville, Chestertown, r eturned from the Sam Hayes flow in Hamilton County, bringing with them six deer , having eaten one in camp, making seven they captured. They were at camp for a week with James Middleton employed as a guide. While they were in the woods, six inches of snow fell.
Panther’s whiskers singed twice Hotel Carson at Schroon River in the town of North Hudson was destr oyed by fir e on Oct. 12, 191 1. It stood on the site of Root’s Hotel, once conducted by Edward Owens of Warrensburgh and burned in the 1890’s. A mounted panther adorned the of fice of the old Root Hotel and also that of Hotel Carson. Curiously enough, this panther was saved from fire in both buildings by Samuel Duntley of North Hudson. It is the lar gest mounted specimen of a panther in the Adirondacks, if not in the state. (Note: Is it possible that the mounted panther is still in the ar ea? If you have any information, call me.)

(Note: Charles S. Leggett was born in 1846 and around that time the Leggett Homestead on state Rte. 9, south of Chestertown which still stands today, served as a way station on the Under ground Railway as an aid to the Anti-Slavery movement.)
Early taste of winter The recent rains have made it difficult for farmers to secure their buckwheat crop. The first snow storm of the season came Oct. 6, 1911 and about six inches fell here abouts doing gr eat damage to tr ees. Limbs on good sound maple trees were broken down by the load of snow at several places along the highway and it was impossible to drive or walk in the r oad owing to the over hanging boughs with their load of snow , hanging down or br oken of f. The snow nearly destroyed the shade trees in T.H. Smith’s yard in Athol. It looks like a very hard winter coming for many people as few cr ops wer e raised by farmers because of the long summer drought.
News roundabout A big cr owd of boys “cut loose” T uesday night, Oct. 31, 191 1 and celebrated Halloween in W arrensburgh with the usual pranks. About everything that was not nailed down was moved hither and yon. Mr. Crandall was badly hurt at Steve’s
Sawmill in Luzerne. He lost all of the fingers on his right hand and part of one heel. Harrison Needham caught his right hand between the rollers of a paper machine at the Schroon River Pulp and Paper Co. plant at Burnhamville, Warrensburgh, cr ushing two fingers. John Carr oll, char ged with thir d-degree Burglary for breaking into the Thurman railroad station, was arraigned and pled guilty. His sentence was suspended and he was put on probation. Roscoe Hadden will give up his position in Warrensburgh as driver of T .J. Smith & Son’s delivery wagon on Oct. 7, 1911 and after a ten-day hunting trip will go to New York city to take a ten week’s course of instruction in Moler ’s barber school. Carter Pasco has sold his grain business and will retire. John H. Pasco is seriously ill with liver and kidney trouble at his home on River Str eet, Warrensburgh. Allie Pasco of Athol lost a fine horse. Thomas Jones died at his home Oct. 26, 1911 in Wevertown and was buried in the local cemetery there. A son, Lawrence Daniel Burch was born to Mrs. Albert Burch at Riverbank. Frank Hewitt and Fred Moses each shot a deer within a few r ods of their homes in Johnsburgh Corners. Hunters r eport that they ar e very plentiful this year and quite tame. Readers ar e welcome to contact Adir ondack Journal corr espondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 623-2210.

Holy Spirit, you who solve all problems, light all roads so that I can attain my goal. You who gave me the de - vine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me in that in all instances in my life you are with me. I want in this short prayer to thank you for things as you confirm once again that I never want to be separated from you in eternal glory. Thank you for your mercy towards me and mine. The person must say this prayer 3 consecutive days. After 3 days, the request will be granted. This prayer must be published after the favor is granted.”METE

Grishkot from page 1
In a tribute to Adirondack Balloon Festival founder Walt Grishkot, balloonist John Outzen draped a giant American flag from his craft Thursday, Sept. 22 during the opening ceremony of the 2011 festival. Outzen noted that for years, Grishkot loved this traditional patriotic salute.

During t he o pening c eremonies, M aury Thompson signed and sold copies of his book “The Biggest Kid at the Balloon Festival: The Walter Grishkot Story,” which not only explores Grishkot’s work with the festival, but his earlier work as a photographer and stunt-loving pr omoter for W arren County. “We all owe a lot of gratitude to W alt for all his enthusiasm and work,” Thompson said. Balloon pilot Rich W iedenhaefer of Easton, Pa., recalled Grishkot’s enthusiasm as he readied to set up his balloon that resembles a giant strawberry. A commercial airline pilot, Wiedenhaefer was in town with his wife and friends and a half-dozen other balloonists and their crews for the fest. “Walt was so upbeat and gr egarious,” he recalled. “To be a balloonist, you have to think positive, particularly about the weather and wind — and W alt was such an optimist.” Balloon pilot John Outzen of Litchfield, N.

ket. Moments later, the balloon ascended in a tethered flight with the flag draping over the crowd, in a salute to Grishkot. Outzen said that the fest’s founder loved this traditional display of patriotism, as he recalled his character. “Walter was always so happy , so accommodating,” Outzen said. “He was very forthcoming and never held back — he was always willing to help anyone in need.” Glens Falls Mayor Jack Diamond looked out over the crowd that applauded Grishkot as the balloon r ose upward, displaying the American flag. “Though Walt has gone to his eternal re st, his spirit lives on, soaring with the hot air balloons that dot the sky each autumn her e,” he said.

County roads from page 1 County highways, totalling 247 miles, suffered more than $5 million in damages from both storms, T ennyson said. Most all damage was cr eated by swollen str eams that turned into raging rivers and washed out culverts and roadways. Most of the damage has been repaired, either temporarily or permanently. The county has documented $4 million in damage from the historic Memorial Day weekend storms, in which 7 inches of rain fell in several hours. Most of the damage occurr ed in Thurman, causing $7 million in damage there to the town’s o r adways. Tropical Storm Irene caused another $1 million in damages to the town roads, Thurman town Supervisor Evelyn Wood said. In rebuilding roadways and bridges from that st orm, c ounty c rews w orked f or f ive
Dog missing at four corners

weeks to help Thurman’s highway cr ew, Tennyson said. These four county cr ews worked long hours, adjusting their schedules and tasks as the weather events occurred, he said. The f ollow-up a ssault b y I rene d elayed some r epairs and r outine paving that had been resumed by county highway crews after the storm response. It also disrupted the scheduling of contractors to r epair infrastructure, Tennyson said. This week, a county cr ew was able to get back to r ebuilding and r esurfacing Potter Brook Road in Northern Warrensburg. The work includes new culverts and drainage ditches, and in some stre tches, new road beds. Tennyson noted that county-owned bridges held up well under the onslaught of water from the storms. “There was no significant bridge damage,” he said. One r eason the bridges withstood the storm str ess was pr eventative work on bridges accomplished earlier this year , he said. One example is the Hudson Str eet Bridge in Johnsburg, where the county crews restored abutments damaged by scouring in April, then poured concrete shields for these bridge supports to handle heavy water flows. In rebuilding after the summer storms, the county has been upgrading culverts and roadside drainage to accommodate heavier stormwater flows, he said. Many of the culverts replaced are smooth heavy-duty plastic, rather than corr ugated metal or concrete, and debris passes through easier, so they are less likely to plug up and cause a road washout, Tennyson said. In some cases, the county — on the advice of their own engineers — has devised a new way to handle those 200-year storms. County workers ar e not only r eplacing culverts and r e-aligning str eams, but in some locations they are installing secondary culverts nearby that can handle overflow if the primary culvert gets overwhelmed or plugged with debris, Tennyson said. One reason the county has been able to er cover from the storm quickly — and not bust the budget — has been that the county operates its own paving cr ew. Having an inhouse crew means more flexible re-scheduling as well as pay rates that ar e f ar lower than pr evailing pr emium labor rates that contractors charge.

Crossbows legal during regular big game season
Autumn’s Splendor
it, as hikers take to the trails in earnest, and paddlers venture upon cooler waters, for one last fling down the stream. Unlike the winter, autumn arrives in a more gradual fashion. It slowly grows across the mountainous landscape, from the peaks to the bogs and beyond, until it finally encompasses the entire region.
A new license year
A 'new' Cascade Falls, which tumbles from high in the notch located between the Upper and Lower Cascade Lakes in Keene, was revealed following Tropical Storm Irene. Although measurements need to be verified, the flow may be in contention for the title of the tallest waterfall in the Adirondacks. Currently, the title is held by T-Lake Falls, near Piesco in Hamilton County, which falls over 600 feet.

utumn’s full splendor has finally arrived, especially in the upper elevations, where the hillsides are currently flanked in a startling array of
fall color. Gradually, this fantastic fantasia of foliage will trickle down from the High Peaks to the foothills and into the valleys below, as the leaves progress from the brilliant scarlet, orange and red of the early season, to the duller yellows and rusty reds of late autumn. Weather patterns will gradually become decidedly cooler, and as daylight hours begin to diminish more determinedly, the region will experience the full-on fall. Wood smoke will again scent the evening air, as flocks of Canada and Snow geese sound the alarm from on high. Salmon will return to the rivers to spawn, as brook trout and lake trout gather on the lakes and ponds, for the same purpose. Whitetail deer will gradually change from the reddish shades of summer to their blue winter coats, and the bucks will begin polishing their headgear, in an effort to attract a mate. Summer camps will be closed and shuttered for the year, just as hunting camps begin to be opened up and aired out in anticipation of the upcoming season. It is a time to enjoy a long hike on a warm Indian Summer ’s day, or embrace the quiet, stillness of a morning spent on a fog-enshrouded, stillwater, backwoods pond. Busloads of leaf-peepers will return ‘up North’ for a vis-
For members of the sporting community, autumn is a period of great indecision, for there are simply too many outdoor options available to consider, ranging from hunting, to fishing to trapping, and beyond. However, sportsmen and women should not forget that October 1 is the beginning of the new license year, especially if they want to continue to hunt, fish or trap. Monies collected from the sale of sporting licenses, combined with a special excise tax collected from the sale of sporting equipments such as firearms and ammunition, bows and arrows, and rods and reels, generates over $1.75 billion annually. These funds are used to pay the operating expenses for a majority of state fish and wildlife agencies. All outdoor travelers must do their part! Fortunately, the non-consumptive outdoor sporting community now has an opportunity to contribute as well. They can pitch in by purchasing a Trails Supporter Patch, which is available for $5 at all, outlets where sporting licenses are sold. Proceeds from the sale of the patches goes to the Conservation Fund's Outdoor Recreation, Trail Maintenance, and Development Account, to help maintain and enhance over 3,500 miles of non-motorized trails throughout New York State.
Cold water PFD law
It is important for boaters and paddlers to remember that New York state now has a Cold Water PFD law which requires that all boaters on recreational watercraft less than 21 feet in length, including motorboats, canoes, kayaks, rowboats and sailboats, must wear a personal flotation device (PFD) from November 1 to May 1 on New York waters. The measure was developed to address a number of fatalities involving off-season boaters who were not wearing PFDs. Roughly 25 percent of the state's total of boating fatalities have occurred in the off season. According to the US Coast Guard, 75% of all fatal boating accident victims drowned, and of those, 88% were not wearing a life jacket. Death by drowning continues to be one of the primary causes of hunter fatalities. It occurs most often, when a heavily dressed hunter stands in a boat to take a pee at seas. Although the skies may be blue, the landscape colorful and the autumn weather, warm and wonderful, outdoor travelers should never forget that Adirondack waters are cold and deadly, especially in the fall of the year! A life jacket, no matter the season, is the single best way boaters can stay safe on the water. Tie one on, and be sure to waterproof your family and friends as well!
T
here seems to be some confusion regarding the new legislation that allows crossbow use during the upcoming 2011 big game season, and with good reason. I’ve seen very little in print since the governor signed the legislation into law last year. The reality is it is going to affect few people, unless you’re a purist who would rather hunt with a crossbow during regular season than a high-powered rifle. In my opinion, it’s not much of a decision. For those who have not read the law, crossbows are legal this year only during the early bear season, regular firearms seasons, late muzzleloader seasons, and the special firearms season in Suffolk County. They cannot be used by the elderly or handicapped, cannot be used during any bow seasons or in any archery only areas and cannot be used during the muzzleloader season in the northern zone. They can only be used to hunt deer or bear, and cannot be used during any small game seasons or to hunt turkey. To possess a crossbow to hunt deer or bear, all you need to do is read a short form about the rules and legal requirements, sign a business-card-size certificate and carry it with you with your big game license. You can print out the form online at www.dec.ny.gov/docs/wildlife_pdf/crossbowform.pdf. That’s it — no special crossbow education class to sit through and no extra fee to pay for a separate license. While the new crossbow legislation does crack the door to crossbow use in the Empire State, it is painfully obvious that there are plenty of special interest groups still holding the door securely shut on the other side. The fact that the law doesn’t even allow the elderly or handicapped to use crossbows during bow season — something that is nearly universally supported by all user groups — is evidence of that.
Whitetail Classic free this season Tony McCutcheon, creator of the New York Whitetail Classic, is opening the statewide big buck contest to anyone who would like to sign up, free of charge. In a prepared statement, McCutcheon said there has been a significant drop in participation during recent years, a drop he attributes to the economy. In response, this year’s 2011 contest will be free to everyone who enters and hunters will be able to enter anytime during the season. Hunters must enter the contest at least 24 hours before taking a deer. Sign-up sheets will be available at a number of supporting businesses and online at www.nywhitetailclassic.com. Final deadline for entry is Dec. 10. Certificates will be issued as prizes, recognizing hunters with the biggest bucks entered this season. A scoring session, will be held Jan. 14, 2012, with the location and time to be announced later.
Lease looking for members The KC Brook Club, formerly East River Club in Tahawus, is seeking new members and I promised member Alan Huggard I’d give them a plug in this column. The club encompasses 2,800 acres of former Finch, Pruyn land and contains four camps. There are currently 21 members, but the group would like to boost that number to 32. I’ve personally hunted some of this area and it is definitely pretty country with great genetics for big deer. Alan tells me the crew are all tight-knit and the camaraderie is second to none. He said the recreational opportunities for members and their families do not end with deer hunting — there are miles of roads and trails for everything from hiking to cross country skiing to snowmobiling. To find out more, or to take a tour of the property, contact Alan Huggard in Wevertown at (518) 251-3563. John Gereau is managing editor of Denton Publications and an avid outdoorsman. His column appears regularly. He can be reached at johng@denpubs.com
The Willsboro fish and game held its youth pheasant hunt Sept. 23 and 25. Pictured are, front row left to right, Mike Piserchia and his dogs Anka and Lord, Conner, Juliana, Jack, Lucas, Austin, Todd Baily and his dog Huck. Back row left to right, Colby, Matt, Alex, Joe, Calvin, Jace, Judd and Joe Pray. Club members said they wished to thank John Oliver, Roger Sayward, Bub Mclean, Joe Piserchia, Todd Baily and Joe Pray for their help.
This is what the certificate looks like that the state is requiring a hunter fill out, sign and carry with their hunting license to hunt with a crossbow this season. This form can be found and printed out at www.dec.ny.gov/docs/wildlife_pdf/crossbowform.pdf
