Warriors defeat Burghers 20-14
By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — Despite facing various increases in municipal employee benefit costs, town of Chester leaders are calling for a 2013 budget with a tax levy hike that will be in compliance with the state’s mandated property tax cap, according to town Supervisor Fred Monroe. The Chester Town Board convened in a special meeting Monday Oct. 1, discussing how to reduce everincreasing employee healthcare costs and how to trim a town budget that must provide for a 17 percent increase in employee pension expenses. The board members then endorsed a tentative 2013 town budget that features total appropriations — general and highway combined — of about $3.6 million or 7.4 percent higher than the current budget of $3,348,958. The budget calls for $977,468 to be raised by property taxes in 2013, an

She and her sisters Terri and Shari manned one of several booths where their families' excess household goods were being sold. All three were answering questions from the never-ending crowd about their array of items. “We just want to get rid of our stuff,” Brandy said as a dozen people clawed through her sale items. “This also is a great time to spend time with family and hang out together while making a
little cash.” She collected 25 cents from Linda DeCarr of Malone for a giant fake-jewel ring that was once a wedding favor, but now could be used as a napkin holder. DeCarr also scored a spray bottle of baseball-cap cleaner from DeGrechie’s “Free” box. Despite her giveaway prices, Brandy

project. This financial shot in the arm was announced this week, at about the same time architect’s renderings of the building were released. A record crowd of more than 300 people attended Hudson Headwaters Health Network’s recent annual dinner.
The event, honoring its 2012 Community Champions Carl Lamm and Elise and Woody Widlund, was held Sept. 9 at Point O'Pines Camp. HHHN founder Dr. John Rugge announced the landmark fundraising results this week. "This year was our seventh annual dinner, and most successful,"
Rugge said. The new health center, to be built in front of the present aging health center, is expected to cost more than $7 million, and have about twice the floorspace as the existing center. To be situated close to Main St., the proposed two-story facility is to feature a multi-dimensional stone CONTINUED ON PAGE 14

GLENS FALLS, NY - The Creating Healthy Places to Live, Work and Play (CHPLWP) program of Glens Falls Hospital has partnered with the Warrensburg Central School District, the Town of Warrensburg, Up Yonda Farm, and Warren County DPW to enhance community access to Warrensburg’s newly formalized Hackensack Mountain Park & Recreation Area. Approximately 3.5 miles of trails were recently designated, along with the establishment of public parking and development of an informational brochure and map (attached). “We are thrilled to be able to offer easier access to such an important part of the community,” says Kathy Varney, Program Coordinator, CHPLWP. According to Varney, access to the trails is free, and is easily reached via three parking areas – on Hackensack Avenue, Prospect Street, and the Warrensburg Junior/Senior High School. “Now community members and visitors to our region can enjoy hiking, biking, running, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing year-round. It has been a great collaboration with our partners in the community.” To view a trail map and more information about the project and its collaborating partners, visit: http://www.upyondafarm.com/hackensack.html Creating Healthy Places to Live, Work and Play, a program funded by the New York State Department of Health, promotes physical activity, wellness and increased access to healthy food opportunities through local policy and environmental changes.

Sale shoppers, vendors less wasteful than prior years thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — The vendors and tens of thousands of people attending the three-day World’s Largest Garage Sale left behind less trash than in recent years, according to the leader of the event’s cleanup crew. Gary “Wally”Ross said that he and three other workers hauled away 38 dump truck loads of trash this last weekend, down from 52 loads collected last year — despite a crowd that was larger. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings of the annual sale, Ross and Chris Nemec, Robbie Sweet, and Lennie Baker typically collect trash from 180 or so trash barrels set out along Main St. Vendors traditionally leave behind packing material, unsold or broken merchandise and food waste both in the barrels and piled up alongside, as well as in random places along the sidewalks. Residents also are suspected of taking
advantage of the free disposal provided by the town Ross said Monday Oct. 1 that among the discarded items this year were televisions, microwaves a coffee table, a bedroom set, several sinks and 20 4’x8’ sheets of plywood. “We didn’t have to pick up any refrigerators this year,” he said, referring to prior years’ cleanup efforts. The record post-Sale trash haul occurred about eight years ago when 92 dump truck loads were taken away — representing 18 tons of trash. The volume discarded in 2010 was 64 dump truck loads or 23 tons, an increase of nine loads over the prior year. Oct. 1, Event coordinator Lynn Smith praised the cleanup effort, which traditionally has left Warrensburg’s streetscape appearing remarkably clean after the massive influx of people. “Gary and his crew do a wonderful job,” she said. Ross has been managing the sale cleanup for about 20 years. Smith added Monday that the vendors reported they experienced brisk sales, and crowds were estimated to be sim-
ilar to last year, despite persistent drizzling through both official days of the sale, Saturday Sept. 29 and Sunday Sept. 30. “Food vendors particularly said they did very well,” she said. “Shoppers apparently ate like crazy.” Not just transient food operations were prosperous apparently. Smith said that local restaurants had lots of customers, because shoppers sought refuge from the weather. She said George Henry’s tavern reported record revenue. Tow truck operators also did well, she said, noting that quite a few shoppers left their cars in No Parking zones, and their vehicles were towed away. Warrensburg Court Clerk Naomi Cooper said that over garage sale weekend, 19 vehicles were ticketed for illegal parking.

With stingy defense, Warriors overturn Burghers By Thom Randall

Chased by Warrensburg defenders, Lake George running back Willie Blunt takes off downfield during a football game held Saturday, Sept. 29 in Lake George.

and Jordan Clark tallied five for 14 yards. The deciding element in the Warriors’ win was likely their rigorous practice sessions. For a week prior to the game, Lake George coach Jeff Bennett taught his defensive players – linebackers, ends and tackles — specific skills and strategies to combat the Burghers’ forceful double-wing charge, he said. “Our players practiced the skills all week long, then in the game they executed them to perfection,” he said. “All the yardage Warrensburg gained, they had to earn.” Among the players key to the defense, Bennett said, were Nate Fidd and Jordan Clark who foiled a good number of the Burger plays. “Fidd blew up several of their plays with his blitz, and Clark had tons of big-time tackles,” Bennett said. The coach also praised Blunt for garnering several key first downs and setting up scor-

LAKE GEORGE – In a dramatic comeback effort, the Lake George Warriors football team’s tenacious defense held off Warrensburg’s veteran squad to secure a key victory Friday, Sept. 28. Lake George defeated Warrensburg 20-14 in the Section II Class D North victory. With three minutes on the clock, Alex Labruzzo broke two tackles and ran 22 yards for the last score of the game. In the ensuing minutes, the Lake George defense, which played an aggressive second half, halted the Burgher ’s last drive which took them downfield and into the red zone. With the Burghers on the 15 yard line and 20 seconds on the clock, the Warrior defense, pumped up by the ardent student fans cheering behind the end zone, forced a turnover on downs, ending the contest between traditional rivals. In Warrensburg’s prior two games, their hard-charging double-wing offense — with their linemen mowing down opposing defenders — has been an unstoppable force. But in the Lake George game, the Warriors defense kept the Burgher offense partially contained – enough to secure the win. Warrensburg had jumped out to an early lead with Connor Scott scoring on a 40-yard run in the first quarter. In the next stanza, Lake George receiver Willie Blunt caught a pass from quarterback Tyler Brown, advancing 32 yards into the end zone. On the kickoff that followed, Connor Scott grabbed the ball and ran it back 74 yards for a touchdown. Warrensburg led 14-8 at halftime. In the second half, however, the Warrior defense kept Warrensburg scoreless, while Blunt nabbed another pass for a 17-yard touchdown in the third quarter, followed by Labruzzo’s concluding touchdown. In the effort, Labruzzo had 22 carries for 90 yards, Blunt had one carry for 25 yards,
near our capabilities.” With the win, Lake George boosted their season record to 2-1 in the division, 2-3 overall. Warrensburg’s record is 1-1 in the division, 2-3 overall. Next up for Lake George is Whitehall, which is now unbeaten in the division behind the potent offense of record-breaking runningback Josh Hoaglund and his brother, quarterback Justin Hoaglund. Josh scored no less than seven touchdowns Saturday against Hoosic Valley, raising his season tally to 24 touchdowns. He totaled 44 points in the game, the third most in Section II history. With Hoaglund-driven offense, the Warriors will have a formidable challenge. Against Hoosic Valley, every time Josh Hoaglund got the ball, he either achieved a first down or scored a touchdown. The Whitehall-Lake George game is to be played at 7 p.m. Friday Oct. 5 on the Warriors’ field. Next up for the Burghers is a home game versus Fort Edward at 1 p.m. Saturday Oct. 6. Leonbruno said he hopes that his team recaptures the enthusiasm they had in their two recent victories. “Our playoff plans are in danger,” he said. “We’ve got to get our energy level up — We’re facing a ‘must win’ situation.”

Antique machinery expo set DIAMOND POINT — A rare opportunity has been offered to the public by Tom Davis, a local collector of antique machinery and farm equipment. Davis is opening up his barn Saturday Oct. 13 to visitors, where they can see his large collection of curious vintage contraptions — and he will be on hand to explain their functions. Most of the machines are in working condition and some will be operating for the occasion. The free event, sponsored by the
Warrensburgh Historical Society, begins at 9:30 a.m. with registration and coffee. The program starts at 10 a.m. An optional pot-luck lunch will be offered at about noon, and those wishing to stay are asked to bring a dish to pass.

Chester taxes increase of $22,964 — 2.4 percent more than in 2012. This tax hike complies with the state’s so-called two percent tax cap law, Monroe said, because the legislation allows municipalities particular amounts to pay for such expenses as pension increases and voter-approved construction projects. The state formula to determine whether a municipality is raising taxes under 2 percent includes factors such as changes in the value of property in the taxing district. The 2013 town budget is subject to a public hearing in early November.
Employee benefit costs up For 2012, Chester has budgeted $159,300 for contributions to the state’s pension fund to on behalf of Chester employees. That amount, due in December, is expected to increase to $197,100, leaving a $37,800 deficit. For 2013, although the town is mandated to pay an increase of about 17 percent in pension expenses for its two dozen employees, certain increases in revenue are expected to offset some of that increase.
Revenues to ease budget woes Chester ’s spending plan estimates that the town will receive $1.6 million in sales tax revenue through Warren County, a proportion of the county’s sales tax revenue divided between local municipalities according to their total property valuation — which is relatively high for Chester because of its lakefront properties. The tentative 2013 budget also calls for $140,000 of 2012 fund balance to be applied to reduce the tax levy. In addition to pensions, also pressuring the 2013 budget is the expense of employee health care premiums. In 2012, the town is likely to spend about $400,000 on this cost. The town board members talked Oct. 1 about changing health plans, because the premiums are to increase about 7 percent, yet benefits are projected to be cut. The board members are considering a switch from MVP Health Plans to Blue Shield, saving from $2,000 to $3,900 on each participating employee. Although the new plan would include far higher co-pays, employees could draw from health care reimbursement accounts to subsidize such expenses, Monroe said. Among the appropriations in the 2013 budget are $30,000 towards a fund to bankroll a new roof for the town municipal center. Savings include delaying purchase of a large truck for the highway department, representing a savings of about
$125,000. Also, $47,000 was previously earmarked for costs associated with a revaluation to be conducted in 2013, and with Horicon putting off that project, this expense is to be postponed, Monroe said. Projected savings for 2013 include the town assessor retiring, yet offering to accomplish the same workload on a part-time basis, Monroe said.

To the Adirondack Journal: I feel compelled to share my views on the development of Warren County’s Floyd Bennett Memorial Airport. The county supervisors continue to approve the airport’s ongoing expansion plans — including the 1,000-feet extension of one runway — in line with a 2002 Master Plan. The rationale behind these improvements were sound and supported by financial resources and projected economic benefits at the time the plan was formally adopted. However, having reviewed relevant documents, my conclusion is that there is no basis for continuing along the chartered path, not withstanding issues of safety. The primary reason for the expansion was to drive area economic development by attracting new businesses and jobs while the county would benefit from fuel tax and sales tax generated. The funding of the expansion calls for 90 percent reimbursement from FAA grants — from commercial passenger flight ticket surcharges, 5 percent from the state and 5 percent locally. This means that anyone in this county who travels by commercial airlines is funding the county airport expansion. Thus, it is your money, along with the other 10 percent — that’s 100 percent taxpayer money. The crucial issue is the return on the taxpayer's investment. This expansion plan, if fully carried out, will require the future outlay of about $22 million through 2017 — all taxpayer money. I do not know what has been spent from 2002 to present. However, since Jan. 1, 2009, the county has allocated an average of $800,000 per year towards the operation of the airport including the services of an airport manager — which is critical to overseeing FAA regulations. In return, the county has received a minimum of $70,000 in payments from the county's Fixed Base Operator each year. Included in this payment is 7.5 cents for each gallon of fuel sold to aircraft owners, which averages roughly $ 12,000 per year. Assuming the lease continues through 2018 under the same terms, the taxpayers will have provided over $8 million for operations plus the $22 million for a total of $30 mil-
lion while receiving $700,000 in return. Now, the Board of Supervisors recently approved a paving project relating to the proposed construction of additional hangers at a cost of nearly $250,000 — most of which will be reimbursed by FAA grants. Added to this $30 million sum is the county's contractual obligation to bring water, sewer and utilities to each new structure — 100 percent taxpayer funded and at an unknown cost. Cited as indirect benefits of the expansion are sales tax collected, including fuel sales and restaurant revenues at the airport. Yet I estimate this amounts to no more than $15,000 per year, based on my research. As far as the economic development benefits cited, I am not aware of any new business that located in this region because there is an airport. If there is, the question remains — would they have come anyway? Now, consider the economic reality of the situation. As of Sept. 20, this airport is home base to 46 single-engine planes, one twin-engine craft, two jets and a helicopter — yet there are 100 aircraft registered in Warren County alone. Recent data reveals that 38 percent of air traffic is general aviation, 12 percent air taxi, 3 percent military and 47 percent transient. Furthermore, official county records reveal that the airport, from mid-October through May, has very little traffic. Roughly 75 percent of all activity occurs in the summer months and peaks during the Saratoga race season which is likely redirected traffic from Saratoga Airport. Thus, our tax dollars are being spent to primarily accommodate overflow traffic from the Saratoga airport. Couple that with Saratoga expanding their facility and the recent state Department of Transportation’s prediction that general-aviation airports will not see any enhanced aviation usage through 2025, and it’s evident that the Warren County airport could be left with a lifetime of legacy costs — and be facing a financial disaster. I have arrived at my conclusion. What can conclusion do you draw from this? If you are concerned, contact the supervisor who represents you and discuss it! Jonathan Mandewell, CPA Queensbury
Road paving funds boosted The budget calls the town’s highway department to spend a higher amount than in recent history for paving, Monroe said. Since the onset of the recession, Chester has reduced its allocation for resurfacing its roadways — however in 2012 this appropriation was substantially increased, and 2013 calls for a slight increase over that sum. In 2011, about $143,00 was appropriated for paving, and in 2012, that sum was boosted to $254,000. For 2013, that allocation was increased to about $255,000, Monroe said. “The roads were getting in bad shape — and the more you delay, the more it costs in the long run,” he said. “We are now working towards getting caught up on paving.” The budget also allocates money to install three new stretches of guardrail — at Faxon Pond and on Pine St. and Igerna Road. The budget also calls for the town to retire its debt associated with the reconstruction of the Starbuckville Dam. The town initially borrowed about $120,000 for the project, and the 2013 tentative budget calls for the remaining debt of about $13,000 to be paid off.
Solar power savings eyed The town’s project to install arrays of solar panels at the town facilities is expected to save about $4,000 on utility costs. That savings is expected to increase in the coming years, as the town council voted this summer to double the number of solar arrays at three of its four sites and increase the panels at the other site by 20 percent. Further savings on electricity costs is also expected as the town decreases its peak usage, which bears a premium cost, Monroe said. As of this past week, the solar arrays for the town municipal center were hooked up, and in the first nine days, these panels produced 1,750 kilowatts of energy — substantially more than expected, Monroe said. Next week, workers will be pouring foundations for new solar arrays at the town’s Dynamite Hill Recreational area. These arrays will be providing electricity not only for the building located there, but two main pumps to transport drinking water for Chestertown residents.

ever see a return to civility? APA: Use common sense to classify Boreas Ponds Will we which have the as today’s society lost all concern
W
hen it comes time to classify the more than 20,000 acres surrounding the picturesque Boreas Ponds tract, we hope the Adirondack Park Agency breaks from tradition and listens to the locals and a little good old common sense over the wishes of environmental groups with a long history of narrow-mindedness. It is true that the area around Boreas Ponds has been shackled in private ownership. It is also true that it is one of the most beautiful places in the park, and it is wonderful news that, within five years, it will be open for all to enjoy. But just how accessible will it be to all the user groups? The last time we checked, taxes from all New Yorkers — not just the environmental groups — helped purchase the land, so why limit it to just a select few? We found it ironic that when “Team Cuomo” landed on the shores of Boreas Ponds a few weeks ago to tout the addition of the tract to the Forest Preserve, the group traversed the several miles up Gulf Brook Road to the main lodge in the comfort of motor vehicles. They had access to all-terrain vehicles for the trip and the governor fished the lake with a battery powered trolling motor. If the APA decides to classify this land with the most restrictive “wilderness” classification — as we are certain the environmental groups will lobby in favor of — it would limit access, and a disabled veteran who fought for this country will not be afforded the same luxury as was given to the governor. In fact, he wouldn’t even be able to take a wheelchair up the road. Under wilderness, the gate to this wellmaintained, two-lane gravel road will be forever locked, and the 3,500-square-foot main lodge overlooking the ponds — a place that would make a wonderful respite for that very same disabled veteran — would be razed in accordance with the Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan as it would be a non-conforming structure. It would be torn down, even though North Hudson Supervisor Ronald Moore and State Sen. Betty Little have both said they want it to remain open as a facility for the physically challenged. That logic seems to make sense to us. We are not advocating that the lands be
open to motor vehicles or ATVs; we know what kind of a battle that would be and understand the destruction that could be caused to the environment, and the damaging precedent that could be set here. But a compromise could and should be reached — perhaps under a less restrictive Wild Forest classification or a combination of classifications — that would allow as many user groups as possible to access the land. From mountain bikes to horse-drawn wagons to wheel carts under canoes — perhaps, dare we say it, even snowmobiles on the road in the wintertime. Except for snowmobiling, it would be similar to the 10-mile roundtrip trek to Great Camp Santanoni. Not everyone can hike 7 miles into a pond. For those that can’t, alternatives should be allowed. Anyone who cannot understand that is looking at it from a pretty narrow-minded point of view. It is almost comical to hear the governor say that land purchases mean more tourism money for Adirondack communities. Tell that to residents of Hamilton County — an area that has the most state land and the lowest median household incomes in the state. The reality is state land purchases don’t automatically translate into tourism dollars. It’s a great place to visit but a really difficult place to make a living. North Hudson is in the same boat. As Moore recently said, the community has no gas station and no stores. Let’s be realistic — what exactly is this land purchase going to do to stimulate the economy in his community? Link a snowmobile trail into Boreas Ponds with Newcomb, Long Lake, North Hudson and Schroon Lake, though, and see how that turns around. Make that same trail a mountain bike trail in the summer and now you’re on to something. The APA should take all user groups into consideration when classifying state lands. This particular case is custom made for opening up to a more intense level of use. Let’s use some common sense and maintain what is already there. This editorial is the collaborative opinion of a board comprised of Thom Randall, Fred Herbst, Shaun Kittle, Keith Lobdell, Stephen Bartlett, Andy Flynn, Katherine Clark and John Gereau.

for civility? The conversation and questions have been growing louder over the past few decades, and there appears to be no real concern to improve the tone or tenor for the lack of respect in the ways in which we deal with each other, especially when we disagree. It should be very apparent that our inability to deal with a broad range of problems is largely attributable to the destructive ways in which the issues are being addressed. A few week ago I was shocked to read an editorial in our papers, penned by one of our editors, who, instead of offering constructive commentary on comments made by individuals, resorted to using a broad brush to paint many with the comments of a few. He truly didn’t mean to do so and has issued a formal apology, but was so enraged by the comments of the few that it seemed a simple step to assume everyone of similar association must think and act like the persons who made the comments, even though the statements have been far and widely condemned by nearly all. Despite the condemnation, once comments like those are in the public arena they continue to circulate. None of us are immune from putting our foot in our mouth. Some of the smartest people around can be caught making an inappropriate comment from time to time— sometimes taken out of context or requiring further explanation— but sometimes they just speak without thinking it all the way through. The problem isn’t always the comment, but how the comment is blown out of proportion. It takes on a life of its own, and, using a current term, goes viral. Civility is more than just mere politeness. Civility doesn’t mean a lack of confrontation or questioning on important issues, and it certainly shouldn’t be an excuse for any statements made publicly by an official or citizen. But neither should the lack of civility be allowed to become the destructive force it is growing to be in our society. In short, any reasonable definition of civility must recognize that there are many different interests which divide an increasingly diverse society, a society that produces an endless series of confrontations over difficult moral and distributional issues. We all need to realize that other thoughtful and caring people have different and opposing views on how to best address these complex problems. Constructive and open debate needs to focus on solutions
greatest chance of success, not upon personal attacks which often include a distortion of the facts, name Dan Alexander calling and a low Thoughts from blow leveled by Behind the Pressline one adversary against another. By not demanding more civil and factual behavior from our leaders as they address the compelling interests of the day, we ultimately repeat what we hear and the actions we see to further distort comments. The end result is a likely increase in the probability that any solution adopted is doomed for failure, having been constructed on inaccurate information. Fair, open and honest discussion and debate is essential to our democratic state, but when the escalation of distortion, closed-minded delay tactics and mutual mistrust enter the equation, all chances of a satisfactory resolution are lost. Despite all the new technological information outlets available to us today, seeking the real truth and trying to avoid becoming complicit parties to pursue selfish objectives is almost impossible. The distortion of truth and lack of civil behavior has become so firmly rooted in our society that it is now our way of life. This column was written before this week’s first Presidential debate. Now be honest with yourself, especially if you’ve already made up your mind for whom you plan to vote. Did either candidate offer a persuasive argument that caused you to reconsider your firmly rooted position, or are your positions so well rooted in either side’s distorted version of the truth that even listening to the other position causes an uneasy feeling? Until we realize that the issues we face and conclusions we reach must be made on the basis of substantial open-minded arguments, made by fair and honest individuals who make personal gain a secondary concern, we will continue to ratchet up the volume. The end result may well be a powerful backlash and an ever-growing call for greater civility. We must find a way to transition from win-lose, which ultimately leads to lose-lose, and reach out to win-win opportunities. Dan Alexander is publisher and CEO of Denton Publications.

100 Years Ago - October 1912 Right hand shot off While hunting squirrels in the woods north of Warrensburgh on Thursday afternoon, Oct. 3, 1912, Herbert C. Smith, Town Clerk of Warrensburgh, was severely wounded in both hands by the accidental discharge of his weapon, a double-barrel breech loading shot gun. A weak wrist caused him to drop the gun which struck a stump and went off as he grasped the barrel to save it from striking the ground. His right hand was literally shot to pieces and was amputated at the wrist by Dr. Thomas Cunningham at the Glens Falls Hospital about four hours after the accident occurred. The left hand was also badly mangled and torn by the charge of bird shot but no bones were broken and it can possibly be saved. Mr. Smith was hunting in the company with E.C. Austin, salesman for the Warrensburgh Woolen Company and Ernest C. “Kid” Manzer, Warrensburgh barber. Mr. Smith is about 40 years old and has a large family. He is a brother of Deputy Sheriff Truman H. Smith of Thurman. He moved here from the north several years ago where he was an Adirondack guide. His warm friends sympathize with him deeply in his great misfortune.
Hunter’s nervous breakdown Charles Murray of New York, while hunting with a party in West Stony Creek, was lost in the woods for two nights and a day and when found, he had given up all hope of rescue and resigned himself to death. His condition was pitiable and he probably will never recover from the effects of his terrible experiences. The party Mr. Murray was with was made up mostly of Stony Creek men. They went into the woods on Monday morning intending to stay for two weeks. While in the woods alone, Murray, instead of taking a proper turn as he had been carefully instructed to do, kept walking straight and in an hour he became hopelessly lost in the forest. He frantically fired his gun and shouted, but to no avail. His rescue was due to Halsey Fuller of
Luzerne who had a camp near by and had been a guide in the Stony Creek area for many years. Fuller heard feeble cries, sobs and groans and found Murray who had fallen to the ground and was unable to rise. His clothing was torn to shreds and he was weak and exhausted from his long fast and was in a highly nervous state from being lost. He was carried on a stretcher to Fuller ’s camp and it was two hours before the young man was revived but he was still unable to walk. Murray was taken to Creek Centre (Stony Creek) and left for his home on the afternoon train, still in a state of agitation. Dr. W.W. Aldrich says he will never fully recover from the effects of his dreadful experience.
Noble lady dies in Hawaii Cordelia Church Bishop, daughter of Nelson R. and Harriet Osborne Bishop, born in Warrensburgh in 1835, died on Wednesday, Sept. 23, 1912 in Honolulu, Hawaii. The deceased was the widow of Col. William F. Allen, late of Honolulu, who held a position under the government as collector of customs. Mrs. Allen was a descendant of two of Warrensburgh’s oldest families, the Bishops and the Osbornes. She was distinguished for her many lovable traits of character and graces of mind and body. Her cousin, Charles Reed Bishop, also a native of Warrensburgh, left this place in 1841 to seek his fortune and after many adventures landed in the Hawaiian Islands where he married Princess Bernice Pauahi Paki, daughter of King Kamehameba the fourth and he became the ruler ’s confidential advisor, acquiring great influence and wealth. After considerable correspondence with her cousin, Miss Bishop was induced to make the long voyage alone to the islands which became known as the Paradise of the Pacific. Soon after her arrival she formed the acquaintance of Colonel Allen and they were married. Col. William F. Allen Sr., her fatherin-law, was dean of the diplomatic corps. He died in the White House in Washington, D.C. when he was visiting there and suffered a heart attack. The couple visited Warrensburgh for the last time in 1897 when they were entertained at The Elms (now The Pillars). Col. William

Fall Farm Tour this weekend After months of planning, the Thurman Fall Farm Tour is to be held Saturday, Oct. 6 and Sunday, Oct. 7. All are welcome to visit Thurman and experience aspects of mountaintown life. At Wolf Pond Stables, located at 473 Wolf Pond Road, children will have the opportunity to enjoy pony rides and participate in decorating a totem to take home. Those who visit the Thurman Quilt Show at the Thurman Town Hall can view the craftsmanship of local seamstresses of both today and yesteryear. Quilting demonstrations of “disappearing” nine-patch blocks and braids — a traditional craft — will be held on the hour from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and some items will be for sale. Adirondack Maple Products is also a favored stop annually on the tour. Located at 151 Charles Olds Road, Toad Hill has been run by the Galusha family for more than 30 years. Toad Hill is the largest maple producer in Warren County, with more than 4,000 taps spread across two sugar bushes. Also, Whitefields’ Farm stand will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, featuring pumpkins and winter squash. There will be pumpkin painting for children, too. See the turkeys and chickens, and ask about farm fresh poultry and pork for sale. From 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, Whitefields Farm will present Linda Faillace — author, songwriter, and sustainable farming advocate. Faillace is author of “Mad Sheep — the USDA versus a Family Farm.” She and her husband Larry work as advocates for traditional cheese-making methods using raw milk and they teach the art of cheese making at their farm in Vermont. Those visiting Thurman during the Fall Farm Tour can ride the Saratoga-North Creek Railway’s train with a special pass, catching the 1:31 p.m. train from The Glen Lodge to Thurman Station and back again immediately. Passengers may also use the pass to make their round trip at 11:22 a.m. from Thurman Station to The Glen, but this run involves a layover of two hours. Box lunches will be available at The Glen Lodge for $7. Lodging accommodations may also be made at The Glen Lodge. Call Aimee Azaert at 494-4984. The Farm Tour also includes Peru Llama Farm, owned by Irv and Freida West. They invite all individuals and families to visit their llamas, and bring cameras with them to capture a memory.

Allen died in 1906. Cordelia Bishop Allen was universally loved in her adopted land. Her funeral was held on Sept. 24, 1912 at her late home and she was cremated.
Judge Hodgson’s court Claude Smith was arrested Monday, Oct. 7, 1912 on a charge of grand larceny, preferred by James Raymond of Spruce Mountain, who alleged that Smith, who was in his employ, stole a $20 bill from him. After a jury trial of his peers, Judge Hodgson sentenced Smith to six months imprisonment in the Albany penitentiary. In another case, John Jackson, a young man who was inclined to be “tough,” was arrested by Constable Lon Sherman on Oct. 8, 1912 for disorderly conduct and was taken to the Lake George jail. In the car he became obstreperous and tried to “mix it up” with Lonnie. The attempt was a failure, but Jackson was badly mussed up by the cordy constable before he was brought to realize the fact that he wasn’t so tough. Judge Hodgson gave him a six month sentence which will remain suspended during his good behavior.
Bonnie Brae spruced up John F. Burt has taken the contract for painting Bonnie Brae Villa, Mrs. John L. (Mary) Russell’s beautiful summer residence on Upper Main Street and is now on the job with several men. The body color is light green, with white trimming and blinds dark green. The colors blend beautifully with the fall foliage of the many shade trees on the place and the effect is very pleasing to the eye. (Note…This house, built in 1865, was one of the most beautiful mansions ever seen in Warrensburgh and sat at the base of the mountain behind today’s Post Office. The end of a gracious era, it was destroyed by arson in 1980.)

Breast Cancer Awareness Month - Adirondack Journal - 9
Exploring the different types of breast cancer
•Medullary carcinoma: This is a less common form of breast cancer. It is a type of IDC, but it gets its name from the color of the tu-
mors, which are close to the color of brain tissue, or medulla. Medullary carcinoma is quite visible during mammograms because
the cancer cells are large and form a barrier between healthy tissue and tumors. •Infiltrating lobular carcinoma (ILC): The American Cancer Society says that 1 in 10 women will be diagnosed with ILC, which originates in the milk-producing glands of the breast. In ILC, abnormal cells inside the lobule begin to divide and break through the wall of the lobule to invade the surrounding connecting tissues. •Tubular carcinoma: This is a common cancer for women ages 50 and older. When viewed under the microscope, tubular carcinoma cells have a distinctive tubular structure. There is a 95 percent survival rate for tubular carcinoma. •Mucinous carcinoma (Colloid): This is a rare condition in which the breast cancer cells within the breast produce mucus. The mucus and the cancer cells join together to form a jelly-like tumor. The tumors may feel like bumpy water balloons, but some are too small to detect with the fingers. •Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC): This is a rare and very aggressive type of breast cancer that causes the lymph vessels in the skin around the breast to become blocked. The cancer gets its name from the appearance of a swollen, red and inflamed breast. Women are advised to get a baseline mammogram in their mid-30s and then annual mammograms starting at age 40. Early detection is generally vital for any form of cancer and is especially so for breast cancer.

Breast cancer is a universal term to describe several different cancers that form in and around the breasts. Breast cancer types are generally categorized based on where the illness begins, most often in the ducts or lobules, the parts of the female anatomy responsible for producing breast milk. About 226,870 new cases of invasive breast cancer in American women will be diagnosed in 2012, while more than 22,000 Canadian women will be diagnosed with breast cancer over that same time period. The National Breast Cancer Foundation lists seven different types of breast cancer. Here's a look at them. •Ductal carcinoma in-situ (DCIS): This is an early form of breast cancer that refers to the presence of abnormal cells inside a milk duct in the breast. This type of cancer is generally found during mammograms and is considered non-invasive. This means it hasn't spread yet. This makes treatment for DCIS easier than for other forms of breast cancer. •Infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDC): Also known as invasive ductal carcinoma, this is the most common type of breast cancer. According to BreastCancer.org, roughly 80 percent of all breast cancer cases are IDC. This cancer starts in the ducts, but "infiltrating" means that it spreads to the surrounding breast tissue. Over time, IDC can spread to the lymph nodes and possibly to other areas of the body.

Ticonderoga woman overcomes breast cancer Wendy Shaw’s ordeal nears an end By Fred Herbst
fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — “Every day may not be good, but there’s something good every day.” That’s been Wendy Shaw’s mantra the past three years as she’s battled breast cancer. “That’s been my saying through this whole cancer journey,” the Ticonderoga woman said. “And it’s true. Something good has happened every day of my cancer treatment — a phone call, a visitor, a card — every day something happened to help me. I’ll never forget the day Barb (friend Barb Greer) brought me a glass of iced tea. She’ll never know what that meant to me at that moment.” Shaw learned in October 2009 she had ductal carcinoma, the most common form of breast cancer. “Cancer gives you a new outlook on life,” she said. “What you thought were big problems are suddenly small problems. I appreciate every little thing now.” Shaw had a right breast lumpectomy in January 2009 and began radiation treatments five days a week at the C.R. Wood Cancer
Wendy Shaw, kneeling right, a breast cancer survivor, participated in Cindy’s Retreat, a weekend gathering for breast cancer patients and survivors at Silver Bay. Center at Glens Falls Hospital. Those treatments lasted through April. During that period another tumor was
Symptoms of breast cancer Breast cancer is a disease that claims the lives of so many people. Although many deaths cannot be prevented due to the severity and late stage of the breast cancer, early diagnosis goes a long way to improving mortality rates and sending individuals into remission faster. Knowing the symptoms of breast cancer can help women and men improve their chances of surviving the disease after diagnosis, as the earlier the disease is diagnosed, the better a person's chance at survival. Not every person experiences symptoms of breast cancer. That's because, in its very early stages, breast cancer may not exhibit any symptoms or, if a tumor is present, it may be too small to detect during a breast self-exam. Furthermore, there are different types of breast cancer, each of which may have its own distinct symptoms. Some of these symptoms may mimic symptoms of more benign conditions as well, making it difficult to determine if symptoms are indicative of breast cancer or another ailment. But even though the following symptoms will not necessarily lead to a breast cancer diagnosis, it's still important to visit your doctor for further clarification if any of them appear. •swelling of all or part of the breast •skin irritation or dimpling •breast pain •nipple pain or the nipple turning inward •redness, scaliness or thickening of the nipple or breast skin •a nipple discharge other than breast milk •a lump in the underarm area •changes in the size or symmetry of breasts •presence of unusual lumps
found on her left breast. It also required surgery, but was found to be benign. Following the radiation treatments, Shaw was placed on a drug regiment to battle the disease. She suffered side affects, including the growth of tumors throughout her body. Those tumors also proved to be benign, but more surgery was needed to remove them. A year after her initial diagnosis, Shaw developed seromas in her right breast. A seroma is a pocket of clear fluid that sometimes develops after surgery. The seromas were drained every two weeks until doctors learned they were being caused by damaged tissue, the result of the earlier radiation treatments. The solution was two more surgeries, including a bilateral mastectomy in February this year. “I can’t say enough good things about the people at the C.R. Wood Cancer Center,” Shaw said. “They were so wonderful to me, so caring and thoughtful. They helped me through everything.” The results have been positive, Shaw is now cancer free, although she faces one more re-constructive surgery. That will bring the total to eight surgeries in the past three years. She’s lost count of the other medical procedures she’s endured. Shaw continued to work in the Ticonderoga Central School District administration office through most of her treatments.
“I would work half days and then leave for treatments at 2 p.m. in Glens Falls,” she said. “It was very difficult. Everyone at school has been fantastic. They donated sick days, gave me rides. When I came home from my mastectomy my house was full of cards, flowers and food. “I can’t tell you how fortunate we are to live in the town with such caring people,” she said. The community also held two benefits for Shaw, a golf tournament at Ti Country Club and a spaghetti dinner at the Knights of Columbus. To help repay that kindness Shaw planned a benefit golf outing for Colleen Ashline, a friend who also had breast cancer. Ashline is cancer free now. Shaw recently attended Cindy’s Retreat, a weekend gathering for breast cancer patients and survivors at Silver Bay. “It made me realize I’m one of the fortunate ones,” she said. “There was a woman there who had the exact same cancer I had, but hers has moved to her bones. She has 13, 15 and 20-year-old children. My heart goes out to her. “It was very emotional,” she said of the retreat. “I’m part of a sisterhood of women who have fought cancer. We all laughed together, we cried together.” While Shaw nears the end of her cancer ordeal, she acknowledges it’s been a difficult road. “There were days I didn’t want to get out of bed,” she said. “But my family and my friends were always there to encourage me, to keep me going. I don’t know where I’d be without their support.” Besides learning to appreciate family and friends, Shaw has also learned something about herself. “We all have an inner strength,” she said. “We may not realize it until we face a crisis in our life, but it’s there.” When Shaw was told she was finally cancer free, a flood of emotions came out. “There are a lot of emotions,” she said. “You’re happy, but you feel badly for the other women who still have cancer. Mostly, I think I was relieved. It has been three years; it seemed like it would never end. But it will — just one more surgery.” October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Shaw is hopeful her story can raise awareness of the disease and help others. “Keep calm, carry on,” Shaw said. “That’s what they always tell breast cancer patients. It’s good advice.”

Breast Cancer Awareness Month - Adirondack Journal - 11

How-to conduct a self-exam for breast cancer Early detection of breast cancer can improve survival rates and lessen the severity of treatment options. Routine mammograms are essential to catching signs of breast cancer early on but so can home-based breast exams. Over the years there has been some debate over the effectiveness of breast self-exams, or BSEs, is effective. Different breast cancer organizations have different views on the subject. Some studies have indicated that a BSE is not effective in reducing breast cancer mortality rates. Some argue that these exams also may put women at risk -- increasing the number of potential lumps found due to uncertainty as to what is being felt in the breast. This can lead to unnecessary biopsies. Others feel that a BSE is a good practice, considering that roughly 20 percent of breast cancers are found by physical examination rather than by mammography, according to BreastCancer.org. The American Cancer Society takes the position that a BSE is an optional screening tool for breast cancer. For those who are interested in conducting self-exams, here is the proper way to do so. •Begin with a visual inspection of the breasts. Remove clothing and stand in front of a mirror. Turn and pivot so the abreasts can be seen at all angles. Make a note of your breasts' appearance. Pay special attention to any dimpling, puckering or oddness in the appearance of the skin. Check to see if there is any change in symmetry or size of the breasts. •Continue the examination with hands placed by the hips and then again with your hands elevated overhead with your palms pressed together. •Next you will move on to a physical examination. This can be done either by reclining on a bed or the floor or any flat surface. The exam also can be done in the shower. To begin examining the breasts, place the hand and arm for the breast you will be examining behind your head. Use the pads of your pointer, middle and ring fingers to push and mas-

Breast cancer is a disease that affects thousands of people each year. According to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, 226,870 new cases of invasive breast cancer in women will be diagnosed this year (including new cases of primary breast cancer among survivors but not the recurrence of original breast cancer among survivors). •There also will be 63,300 new cases of in situ breast cancer (including ductal carcinoma in situ, or DCIS, and lobular carcinoma in situ, or LCIS). •It is estimated that there will be 39,510 breast cancer deaths in 2012. •Although breast cancer is rare among men, there are still cases that occur each year. It is estimated that there will be 2,190 new cases of breast cancer cases in men, and there could be 410 breast cancer deaths. sage at the breast in a clockwise motion. Begin at the outer portion of the breast, slowly working inward in a circular motion until you are at the nipple. Be sure to also check the tissue under the breast and by the armpit. •Do the same process on the opposite breast. Note if there are any differences from one breast to the other. If you find any abnormalities, mark them down on an illustration that you can bring to the doctor. Or if you can get an appointment immediately, draw a ring around the area with a pen so that you will be able to show the doctor directly where you have concern. It is a good idea to conduct a BSE once a month and not when menstruating, when breasts may change due to hormone fluctuation. Frequent examinations will better acquaint you with what is normal with your breasts and better help you recognize if something feels abnormal.
The five most deadly cancers in North America still lists many cancers as the primary killers of many people. Here is the most recent classification of the five cancers that claim the most lives each year. 1. Lung cancer: Lung cancer is responsible for more deaths than any other cancer. Roughly 160,000 people succumb to lung and bronchial-related cancers each year. Although it is the most deadly, it is also the most preventable, as many cases of lung cancer are the result of certain lifestyle choices. Quitting smoking is the single most effective way to reduce your risk of lung cancer. 2. Colorectal cancer: In 2008, 52,857 Americans died from colorectal cancer, says the CDC. Most cases of colorectal cancer begin with groupings of small, benign cells called polyps that over
time become cancerous. Screening is necessary to check for cancer of the colon and rectum, but because they are embarrassed and uncomfortable, many people avoid preventive measures. 3. Breast cancer: The second most common cancer in women, breast cancer can affect both sexes. It is also the most deadly cancer among women, with roughly 35 percent of the cases in the United States resulting in fatality. 4. Pancreatic cancer: The pancreas aids in digestion and metabolism. This cancer
is deadly because it is difficult to detect in its early stages, as it does not always produce symptoms and the cancer tends to progress rapidly. Pancreatic cancer claims around 40,000 lives each year. 5. Prostate cancer: Prostate cancer is exclusive to men and is the secondleading cause of cancer deaths among them, according to the NCI. This type of cancer forms in the prostate, a gland that produces seminal fluid that carries sperm. It is estimated that 28,000 men will die from prostate cancer in 2012.
Although many cancers are fatal, survival rates are improving. Thousands of people diagnosed with can-
cer beat the odds and go on to live healthy, disease-free lives.

Cancer has surpassed heart disease as the foremost cause of death for people in North America. A cancer diagnosis can be life-altering. Although there are many successful treatments for cancer, there is no definitive cure. Plus, certain cancers continue to be more ominous than others. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there are more than 100 types of cancer, characterized by their location in the body and abnormal cell growth in that area. Millions of dollars have been raised and spent on cancer research and finding new and innovative methods of treatment. Although the five-year survival rate for those with cancer in the United States has improved considerably over the last three decades, the National Cancer Institute

New event highlights country music By Andy Flynn
andy@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — Members of a local band are organizing what they hope to be an annual celebration of music in November called “Nashville in North Creek.” Jennifer Gadway, of the band Decadence, announced at the Sept. 20 North Creek Business Alliance meeting that several bands will be headlining the Nov. 3-4 event, including her band and the Steven L. Smith Band, of Brant Lake. “If we can grow this like the bluegrass festival has grown, I think it would be a great opportunity,” Gadway said at the meeting. Nashville in North Creek shows will be held at the Copperfield Inn on Main Street; however, Gadway envisions having performances at multiple venues in the future. Gadway said she made a lot of contacts during a recent trip to Nashville, where she and her musical partner, Katy Cole, had performed. “I came up with the idea when my band Decadence went to Nashville in August to play some shows,” Gadway said. “I had already had my eye out for something to do as an event in November in North Creek, as that is a really slow time for the town and the Copperfield Inn.” Gadway is a bartender at Trapper ’s Tavern at the Copperfield. She had a brainstorming session with Copperfield investor Joel Beaudin to bring something to the area similar to Decadence’s successful CD release party in June. “When we got to Nashville and made some new friends
Decadence Decadence is an Americana band fronted by Jennifer Gadway and Katy Cole since 1999. Combining Gadway's powerful country voice with Cole's folk and blues influences, these two unique voices come together to create a sound that is fresh and original. They have been promoting their debut album “Love Loud” and are working with HMG Nashville to officially launch their first single to the nation.
Renee Wahl Listening to Renée Wahl’s debut album, “Cumberland Moonshine,” listeners will find themselves drawn into finely detailed story songs with a universal air. The album establishes Wahl as a serious player in Nashville.
Decadence and great connections, I knew that was it,” Gadway said. While bluegrass, rock music, classical and jazz get much of the attention in the North Creek region, there was void to fill when it came to country music. “Country music has been almost ignored, and it is so odd given the fact that this area has so many country music fans,” Gadway said. “It just seemed to be a no brainer.” The other Nashville in North Creek musicians are Renee Wahl and D.W. Dasher. Pre-event ticket sales are essential — especially over the next couple of weeks — to ensure that this event will happen. Gadway said a lack of early sales could lead to the cancellation of the event because she can’t have the Nashville acts travel to the Adirondacks for free. “It would be nice to pay them if they traveled 1,000 miles,” Gadway said. Tickets are $10 per show ahead of time and $15 per show
Steven L. Smith Band Steven L. Smith is a Adirondack native with ties to Nashville. His last two CDs recorded in Nashville charted on the Americana and Roots 66 international music charts. Steven is a voting member of the Country Music Academy. His most recent CD “Ramble On” features Charlie McCoy, from “Hee Haw,” playing harmonica.
D.W. Dasher D.W. Dasher is a lifelong musician and songwriter. He is a founding member of the Nashville Rock trio Mellow Down Easy, while maintaining a solo career in the Americana/Country/Folk genre. In 2009, he celebrated the release of Mellow Down Easy’s “Cosmisutra” album and his debut solo album, “Long Road Now.”

Garage sale from page 1 DeGrechie made change for a buyer from a stack of bills several inches thick. “This Sale is so much fun,” DeCarr said as she walked away towards the next vendor several yards away. Warrensburg's World's Largest Garage Sale attracted tens of thousands of people Friday, Saturday and Sunday Sept. 28 through Sept. 30, offering a staggering array of antiques, collectibles, tools, household goods, clothing, knick-knacks – virtually anything imaginable – from a vintage stretch limo to cheap tube socks. The shoppers jammed main street to browse among the wares of 500 vendors, as well as the goods at an estimated 1,000 yard sales through town. The persistent light rain all day Saturday didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the crowd picking through the offerings of the mile-long stretch of vendors along Rte. 9 or elsewhere in town. Wandering up Main St. were Jessica and Jerry Rule of Schroon Lake. Wearing a furry skunk hat, Jessica said they had scored a switchblade, various pocket knives, and winter gear. She said that what they didn't buy was as interesting as what they did acquire. “We’ve seen cool gadgets and other things here you’ve never seen before,” she said. An array of intriguing items were for sale in a mid-town booth operated by Rick Guimmette of Winchester, Mass. At about 2:30 p.m., the narrow tent was crammed with people examining his thousands of antique hand planes, chisels, 1920s metal toys and cast-iron cookware. He said that shoppers weren't deterred by the day-long rain – a repeat of last year's weather. “For the weather, this is a good crowd,” he said. “They’re not just browsers, they’re dedicated buyers.”
Santa intrigues shoppers Nearby, a portly man in red-and-white striped pants, red shirt and a foot-long white beard furiously stirred a pile of popcorn kernels in a giant wok to create a batch of “Kris
Chestertown News NYS shopping trip planned POTTERSVILLE — A local civic group has planned a day trip to New York City for shopping and holiday lights gawking, and reservations are now being accepted. The Pottersville Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary has reserved a bus for a trip to Manhattan on Saturday Dec. 1, and reservations with payment are due by Nov. 1, Auxiliary representative Nicole Howe said.

Kringle’s Kettle Korn.” As he stirred his long wooden paddle, popping corn flew every-which-way under the tent. “Have you been good this year?” asked this Santa impersonator — Vernon Phillips of Gouverneur — as a wide-eyed child waited for a bag of the caramelized popcorn. “Every kernel is magically delicious.” Frank Wiedeman of Schroon Lake, a scout leader, rode by on his bicycle with a few of his garage-sale purchases strapped to it. Over the day, he was shuttling his finds — tools, a pellet gun, planting pots and a side table — back to his vehicle. He said he’s attended the Great Sale since 2008. This year, he decided to use two-wheeled transportation to get through the streets clogged with automobiles. “Riding through town on my bike makes a lot of sense – I can cover a lot more ground quickly,” he said, noting that he’d normally get lots of camping equipment, but he already owns enough to outfit five families.
Valuable items found at sale Walking briskly nearby through a tent of antiques was Ryan Volpe of Schenectady. He was holding a case containing four projection lenses for a slide projector. Earlier, he found a rare Nikon S, the famed firm’s first 35mm camera to be imported into the US during the American occupation of Japan. He said the rare model, which he bought for $25, might sell for up to $1,800 on E-Bay. Upstreet, Marcketta Carpenter of Kinderhook browsed through 1950s collectibles along with her daughter Alisa of Yukon, Oklahoma. While Alisa was gathering old Coca-Cola collectibles, Carpenter said she was looking for antique fishing equipment and vintage kitchen tools and signs. Carpenter has attended the Warrensburg sale for 20-plus years, she said. “There are all kinds of things here either I can’t afford or I can’t get home,” she said. Accompanying them was family friend Lisa Pritchard of Glens Falls who found antique children's Golden Books, for 50 cents each. Josh Persons of Warrensburg walked down Elm St. lugging a wall shelf resembling half a canoe. He said he bought it nearby from a private sale. “We’re having a good time,” he said. “Everybody’s will-
“See the sites, enjoy the lights and start your Christmas shopping,” she said. The bus leaves Pottersville at 6 a.m. and returns at about 11:30 p.m. Additional pick –ups sites may be announced later. The cost is $50 per person, and those seeking details or to make a reservation are urged to call howe at 494-7725.
Food drive at NW open house CHESTERTOWN — North Warren Central School is holding its annual open house Thursday, Oct. 4 and it is featuring a new community outreach. In conjunction with the open house, the
ing to come down on their prices.”
Community groups benefit Late afternoon Saturday, Warrensburg Fire Chief Justin Hull poured coins that firefighters collected selling breakfast and lunch — including homemade broccoli soup and chili — to shoppers. They also parked 300 cars in the field behind their firehall, charging a bargain rate of $5 for automobiles, or $25 for recreational vehicles. Their large lot filled up by noon on Saturday. Also, as a service to the public, they were letting anyone use their bathrooms — considered preferable to the plastic Porta-Jon booths located through town for the event. Next to Hull was Fire Company President Kevin Geraghty, who jotted down receipt totals next to a stack of greenbacks — $20 bills, $10, $5, and $1 bills — several feet high. “We have to be here to protect the public, so we decided why not make a few dollars while we're on duty,” Geraghty said.
Vendors, businesses happy Two blocks away, Subway restaurant was also collecting a lot of cash for their fare. They had a line out the door at lunchtime. During last year ’s garage sale, the enterprise had experienced its most profitable days ever. This year ’s receipts, however, were cut down by a deep lineup of food booths in the parking lot in front of Subway, whether the vendors were serving blooming onions, fried bread, quesadillas, or steak sandwiches. One of those food vendors, however, Ziggy Viscusi of Rotterdam, has set up his enterprise at the World's Largest sale for many years. Saturday, he and his family members manned his long booth that served sausage-and-pepper or steak sandwiches. The savory aroma of cooking food wafted over the crowded sidewalk, drawing hundreds of customers, one after another. “Gas prices may be up this year, but people are coming up here to Warrensburg anyway,” he said. His neighbor, Lisa Ferlazzo, assembled a sandwich for a customer standing in line. “I’d heard of this big sale in Warrensburg, but I had no idea what it was really like,” she said. “From now on, I’ll never miss it – This is unreal.”
local teachers union is sponsoring a food drive for the local food pantries. The north Warren teachers are asking that families attending the open house bring a food item, and in return they will receive a raffle ticket to win the "Teacher's Favorite Goodies" gift basket. The teachers donated an array favorite items like: coffee, note cards, gift cards, lottery tickets, and Sharpies.

Health center from page 1 and masonry facade that will add a dramatic new look to downtown Warrensburg, town leaders said. “This new health center will be a prominent addition to Main Street,” Warrensburg Town Supervisor Kevin Geraghty said. “It's a real positive development for our community.” The health center is to be primarily funded with a $5 million federal grant. An additional grant of $400,000 has been sought through the Warren County Planning Dept. Rugge has predicted that the expanded facilities will prompt the creation of 15 to 20 new jobs, likely in stages. Hudson Headwaters has historically offered stable employment with competitive pay and benefits to area residents. The Warrensburg Health Center now employs about 100 people. Rugge added that the expanded health center is also likely to host new health-related services.
The proposed new two-story Warrensburg Health Center, to be built close to Main St. where the existing center’s parking lot now exists, is expected to add a dramatic new look to downtown. The new facility, about double the floorspace of the existing aging building, is expected to prompt creation of 15 to 20 new jobs. The new health center will add 13 new exam rooms: four for primary care, three for specialty care, two for pediatric exams, two for urgent care, and two for women’s care. It will also host six dedicated counseling rooms for behavioral health patients. HHHN officials said this week that construction may begin next spring, and occupancy of the building might occur in late 2014, if not sooner. Hudson headwaters officials say the transition from one building
Curbside giveaway set for LG LAKE GEORGE -- This weekend, residents of the town are welcome to place their unwanted items at the curb for other citizens to adopt, town leaders said this week. The town of Lake George has designated Saturday Oct. 6 through Monday Oct. 8 as Free-to-All Weekend during which they are encouraged to “free-cycle” items that are likely to be of use to others, Lake George Town Board member Marisa Muratori said. “The purpose of the event is an extension of the town’s initiatives to promote re-use, and to encourage the community’s recycling efforts,” she said, noting that the event may be held annually. “We encourage people to look at things in their house — items that will be useful to someone else,” she continued. “This is intended to prevent things from going into the trash stream.” Mattresses, couches or upholstered items shouldn’t be

After the move occurs, the present building — a concrete-block former grocery store — will be torn down and replaced by municipal parking to serve both the health center and general municipal needs.
