ELIZABETHTOWN
IN CHESTERTOWN
By Shaun Kittle
Class of 1957 holds reunion
shaun@denpubs.com WA R R E N S B U R G — There’s plenty of spooky, creepy fun to be had in Lake George and Warrensburg this Halloween. On Oct. 26, the Warrensburgh Historical Society will be hosting its 12th annual graveyard walk, which will feature five of the town’s most prolific, and deceased, personalities. The walk begins at 7 p.m. at the Warrensburg Cemetery and will be followed by homemade desserts at the home of Rosemary and Bill Maher, 2 Cloverleaf Drive, just north of the cemetery off Hudson St. The ghostly characters portrayed during the walk include: Paulina (Pliny) Moses, a woman whose many troubles included her husband, Samuel; Col. Benjamin Peck Burnhams, a man who made a fortune in the tannery business and became the first president of Glens Falls National Bank; Albert C. Emerson, who worked in lumber and banking; John C. Brown, a

Chestertown school Class of 1957 holds 55th reunion CHESTERTOWN — The Chestertown Central School Class of 1957 recently celebrated its 55th reunion. “We were one of the smallest classes (9 students) to graduate from Chestertown Central School," (CCS) said Larry Kingsley, Class of 1957 senior president. "We are like family and try to have regular 5-year reunions even though several live some distance from Chestertown. Our roots run deep in Chester and we value close ties with our classmates.” The class of ‘57 consists of Denise (Hidley) Bean of Avon, Conn.; Janet Blanke (deceased); Irving DeMatties of Queensbury; Gus Giersberg of Columbia, Mo.; David Goodrich of Warrensburg; Richard Hedler of Melbourne, Fla.; Larry Kingsley of Cary, N.C.; Eleanor (Smith) Sitterly of Fort Plain; and Kathy (Flachbarth) Tennyson of Chestertown. Three classmates — Gus Giersberg, David Goodrich and Denise Bean — were unable to attend. Irving DeMatties was the chief organizer for the reunion. He helped put the four-day reunion together, beginning with a “meet and greet" afternoon event on Thursday Sept. 20. Following the afternoon meeting the class members and spouses traveled to downtown Glens Falls for the Classic/Antique Car "Cruise-In," Balloon Festival and fireworks. Each class member drove one of Irving’s five classic cars to the festival and enjoyed a dinner at the Gourmet Cafe on

spouses gathered at the Chestertown Municipal Center (formerly Chestertown Central School) for a tour of their Alma Mater and the Chester Museum. That evening, several couples attended the annual CCS Alumni Reunion Banquet, at the Roaring Brook Resort in Lake George, with alumni from all classes that attended CCS, as well as several faculty and staff of the school. Class members and spouses attended church on Sunday, Sept. 23, followed by a farewell luncheon at the Main Street Ice Cream Parlor located in the old Chestertown schoolhouse. A CD (rendition of the 1972 song by the Statler Brothers - "The Class of '57") with lyrics modified to fit the CCS Class of '57 was sung and recorded by Irv DeMatties, Jeff Inglee and Wendell Breault. A copy was presented to each of the classmates to commemorate the occasion. A forthcoming DVD is under production by DeMatties that will include pictures and 1950s music for both the 50th and 55th reunion. With townspeople doing much of the work, Chestertown Central School was converted to the present-day Town of Chester Municipal Center (Town Hall, Library and Museum), which saved the school from likely demolition. Because of this unselfish work, graduates like the class of ’57 have a place to return and reminisce, and for this we are forever grateful.

Steering committee discusses future of Lake George development Would eight-story hotel change village too much? By Katherine Clark
katherine@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Members of the village’s Lake George Steering Committee met at the town offices to discuss the viability of rezoning the village’s commercial district and allowing the construction of an eightstory building on Tuesday, Oct 23. Although they met to discuss policy and regulations, committee members and residents unearthed the deeper question of where they want the village of Lake George to go in the future. “The issue before you is how do you want to see the future of Lake George,” said Dave Kenny, who proposed the development of the eight-story hotel in downtown Lake George, during the public comment portion of the meeting. “I’m interested in seeing this town 20 years down the road, and I want to see things better.” The meeting was the second for the newly appointed committee, which consists of eight members from the village Planning Board, Zoning Board of Appeals, Village Board, Lake George Town Board and local residents and business owners. They are Ray Perry, Marisa Muratori, Herbert Weber, Dan Wolfield, John Earl, Dennis Barden, Tom Sullivan, and Chairman of the Steering Com-
mittee Ron Mogren. Lisa Nagle from Elan Planning, Design and Landscape Architecture outlined Adirondack Park guidelines the town would need to consider for a building something more than four stories, or 40 feet high. She also outlined the current zoning regulations. Issues centered around the village’s water treatment center, parking, and the constant shadow an eight-story building would cast over homes behind the proposed hotel. The controversial proposal submitted by Kenny comes while the village is studying the water treatment plant. The committee must decide how much of the village’s system the hotel would require. In an earlier Adirondack Journal report, Lake George Mayor Blais noted that the additional plant inflows might reduce the amount of treatment capacity the village now allots for the town’s Caldwell Sewer District, thus limiting development in the town outside village limits. The village is already upgrading the plant with a $900,000 project that would reduce nitrates in the plants outflows, as well as increase its treatment efficiency. The issue of limited parking in the village and bringing in a facility with limited land surrounding the building would cause problems for people staying at the facility or cause an excess of parking troubles on the street during an event. Nagle said regulations require the hotel to provide at least one space per room but do
not require the hotel to provide more space than a banquet with many guests. The hotel envisioned as 86 feet tall, which is about five stories and 46 feet taller than allowable for the village zoning codes. The hotel was proposed to be a full-service enterprise with banquet facilities. It was proposed for the plot on Canada Street north of Amherst Street that now hosts Giuseppe's Pizzeria and Restaurant. Kenny owns Marine Village across the street from Giuseppe’s, as well as the Inn at Erlowest, and he developed the Adirondack Outlet Mall just south of Lake George. The hotel was proposed to feature 114 guest rooms —most of them suites.
Village or tourist destination Joanne Gavin, a resident of the town of Lake George, said the Village Board needed to realize the decisions made in the village have an effect on all the people of Lake George, in the town and the village. “We don’t necessarily need to come in and invest $15 million in the community,” Gavin said. “We just need people who love this town to invest in it.” Charlie Curto, owner of the Spaghetti House in the village, said the town needs to make changes so business owners can afford to be year round and not only open in the summer. “I see the people walking every day, and every year the amount of people are diminishing,” Curto said. Kenny said the inclusion of a large hotel

such as the proposed project would not remain empty during the off season but would bring in people year round. “We don’t need more people in here in July and August; we need more people here tonight,” Kenny said. The steering committee will hold its next meeting on Nov. 13. There will be two meetings a month until the village board makes a decision on its development priorities in late January or early February.

Electoral College fails NY residents
Lets keep the debates going
It’s time for a change
he recent presidential and vice presidential debates have been closely watched by the American Public. In an era when television has moved away from serials, dramas and sit-coms in favor of Reality TV and the major media outlets have moved from watchdog journalism to entertainment news we should consider replacing the State of the Union Address and infrequent press conferences with live debates. Our presidents and congressional leaders have failed to serve their constituents allowing gridlock and partisan feuds to rule the day. Instead of feeling hopeless awaiting the next election cycle to see if a true leader can emerge why not demand that they debate the issues they all claim they want to solve? Instead of pawns we become participants in the live drama by becoming far more aware of just what is going on in our nation’s capital. At least once per year, but twice might be better, the President should spend an hour and half debating a member of the opposing party, such as the Speaker of the House or Senate Majority Leader regarding the issues and explain what they are doing or why they haven’t accomplished the many promises they so adamantly told us they would accomplish if elected. This would give each side a stage to bring the compelling issues before the American public. No where to hide, no where to run. They can call each other liars, insist the facts have been twisted but the major issues of the day would be front and center and in full view of the American public instead of presented at staged, scripted events. Take for example the current issues swirling around the, now confirmed, terrorist attack in Benghazi. How much would we know today were it not for the debates and the upcoming elections? The press didn’t demand accountability until more details were coming out as a result of the debates. How serious are presidential appearances/interviews on shows like the View, late night comedy shows or Entertainment Tonight? Our nation’s leaders have been able the hide behind subordinates and entertainment celebrities instead of facing the nation and responding publicly and personally to their critics. Take for example a recent appearance on ABC’s the View. Whoopi Goldberg barely let Ann Romney settle into her seat before quizzing the candidate’s wife, asking why Mitt Romney didn't serve in Vietnam, if the couple is prepared to console families of fallen soldiers, their stance on abortion and issues related to the Romneys’ Mormon Faith. Unlike
W
ith the presidential campaign in its final days, enthusiasm for this year ’s election is nearing a peak. It’s too bad your vote won’t matter. That statement is heresy in the United States, a nation where we’re taught almost from birth the value and responsibility of voting in a democracy — but it’s true in our case. That’s because no matter how we vote, New York’s 29 electoral votes will go to President Obama. That’s the nature of the Electoral College, which was established by our founding fathers in the Constitution as a compromise between election of the president by a vote in Congress and election of the president by a popular vote of citizens. When we vote, we are actually voting for “electors” who will represent us in the actual vote for president. The Electoral College consists of 538 “electors.” A majority of 270 electoral votes is required to elect the president. A state’s allotment of electors equals the number of members in its congressional delegation. In every state but two, Maine and Nebraska, the Electoral College is winner take all. That means a candidate gets all of New York’s 29 electoral votes, even if he wins the state popular vote by one ballot. Because New York City is so heavily Democratic, New York State’s 29 electoral votes will go to Obama. No matter how passionate the debate may be throughout the North Country, Obama will win New York State. Our vote, at least for president, means nothing. We’re not alone. In fact, virtually all the pundits believe this presidential election will be determined by seven to nine “swing” states, states where the popular vote could push the electoral vote either way. That’s why Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney are willing to spend days, even weeks, and millions of dollars in states like Ohio, Virginia and Florida while ignoring New York and other states. Candidates generally like the Electoral College. It allows them to focus their time, energy and money on key states. Citizens should not be as happy with a system that disenfranchises so many voters. If our president was elected by popular vote candidates would be forced to appeal to all voters across country. They would no longer be able to simply write off entire regionals as a lost cause and simply take other states for granted. It’s time that one man, one vote becomes more than a slogan. It’s time for everyone’s vote to count. Changing the Constitution is a serious, difficult thing, but it’s time to revisit the Electoral College.

T
a recent joint appearance on the show by President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama during which questioning ranged from how romanDan Alexander tic is the President, what Thoughts from his mood is like given the Behind the Pressline pressures he faces and details pertaining to the couple's anniversary celebration. This interview took priority over meeting with world leaders at the UN while in New York City. By facing off directly against those who adamantly oppose your actions the American Public can make a better determination on pinpointing the shortcomings of the nation’s leaders. If the problem is Congress, the President can call them out and ask the public for their assistance to move issues through the House or Senate. If legislation isn’t passing because congress is loading up bills with pork barrel item the President can specifically address those issues to the public. But if it’s clear that the President isn’t providing the appropriate leadership as promised to move the country forward, the public and the press will be compelled to demand greater accountability. To make the discussions more focused and to insure the moderator is not spell bound by the participant’s celebrity nor bullied due to their powerful perseverance, I would suggest we enlist the services of a former US President, to control the evening’s discussions as the moderator. By keeping the press off the stage their primary role becomes reporting and not interjecting themselves or their opinions into the issues at hand. Who knows, it might even produce a return to more balanced journalism. Should one party control all three houses the organizers would then ask for a national opposition leader to step forward and provide the opposing viewpoint. My final suggestion would be for the League of Women Voters to be the non-partisan organization to oversee the debates as opposed to subordinates of those debating or party officials. We must find a way to break the deadlock that has continued to grow worse in Washington. This might be a way to do just that. If you think this idea has merit spread the word. Who knows it might just take root. Dan Alexander is publisher and CEO of Denton Publications. Email him at dan@denpubs.com.

100 Years Ago - October 1912 Politics end in death James Schoolcraft Sherman, Vice-President of the U.S. and candidate for re-election on the Republican ticket, died at his home in Utica, Oct. 30, 1912 of Bright’s disease, heart disease and hardening of the arteries. He was in a coma when he died. The deceased was an intimate friend of the Hon. Louis W. Emerson of Warrensburgh and he visited his friend here four years ago and gave a noon-time address on the piazza at the Adirondack Hotel (Note…now RiteAid location). A beautiful floral piece, made by Sheridan E. Prosser, the Warrensburgh florist, was sent by the Hon. L.W. and Senator James A. Emerson for the funeral of their late friend, Vice-President Sherman, which was held Nov. 1, 1912 in Utica. In other news, bonfires on Main Street, uptown and downtown on election night, surrounded by crowds of cheering boys, were lighted by youngsters to celebrate the glorious victory of Senator James A. Emerson, whose son, Albert is a leader among them and is as popular with his associates as his distinguished sire is with their fathers. (Note…Albert Emerson was lovely man, kind and thoughtful, who worked hard to carry on the proud tradition of his illustrious family. His portrait hangs in the Emerson Town Hall his money built, looking down at the courtroom proceedings with a thoughtful, amused expression, that I think says, “Look what fools these mortals be!”)
Music Hall rally The Warrensburgh Cadet Band, organized in the spring of this year, made its first appearance in public Tuesday evening, Oct. 29, 1912 when it was engaged to play for the Progressive political party rally at Music Hall. A street parade was made before the meeting. The band played exceedingly well considering the short time it has been in practice. Many of the members are beginners

and George E. Farrar is their leader. (Note…The first Progressive Party in 1912 was formed by dissident Republicans. They became known as the Bull Moose Party and unsuccessfully backed Teddy Roosevelt for president in that year even though they drew over 4 million votes.)
Taken for a ride A Ford automobile owned by Mr. Colby and driven by Morton Bissell of Newcomb, while crossing the Delaware and Hudson company’s railroad tracks at North Creek at the railroad bridge crossing, was run down by a northbound freight train, carried several rods up the track and thrown to one side a total wreck. The chauffeur, who was the sole occupant of the machine, was thrown from his seat by the impact and landed on the pilot of the engine. He was carried some distance before he fell off. He was taken to the office of Dr. Lee Somerville in an unconscious condition and it was feared that he was seriously injured. A careful examination showed that he was only severely bruised. Bissell was on his way to Minerva and was in great haste to get there. The machine was acting badly and he was giving it so much attention that he failed to notice the approach of the train. No blame was attached to Engineer Johnson nor Conductor Whitaker and they did everything possible to avoid the accident.
Man buys dream car R.E. Burger will soon be the owner of the fastest car that tears up the landscape in this part of the country, having placed an order with the Simplex concern for a four-passenger Tourabout, 90 H.P., with a guaranteed mileage of 120 miles per hour. With a view to luxury, his car will have a body of the improved Vanderbilt type, upholstered as liberally as a Turkish chair with trimmings of Spanish leather. Mr. Burger threatens to annihilate all previous speed records.
Lake George Club Various reports of the Lake George Club,
at Hill view (later named Diamond Point), shows the club to be in flourishing condition. During the past year a dormitory has been erected at a cost of $5,000 which will be used for the use of the superintendent and others. The golf links have been greatly improved and were in fine shape for the recent President’s Cup tournament. Officers recently elected are President, W.K. Bixby, Vice-President Antonio Knauth, Treasurer L.F. Hyde, Secretary, and H.W. Guernsey. Among those who have been reelected to the board of directors are F.T. Gates, H.W. Hayden and Maurice Hoopes.
Name in dispute The matter of changing the name of Lake George Village is again being agitated. Down the lake people object to the incorporated name of “Lake George” for the village at the head of the lake on the grounds that the citizens in taking it are audacious, extremely selfish and have worked to the detriment of the other villages and hamlets on the lake. They argue that there is but one Lake George and that should cover the lake in its entirety. (Note…Since its inception the village was originally called “Caldwell” after its founder, James Caldwell, who in 1787 purchased the original patent.)
Season comes to a close The Echo Lake Farm House, delightfully situated near the shore of Echo Lake (Note…now on the present day Fish Hatchery road end of the lake.) on a hilltop commanding a fine view of the Hudson River in a beautiful grove, is one of the most popular boarding houses in Warrensburgh or vicinity. It is conducted by Mr. and Mrs. Edward Noble. The season has drawn to a close and has been one of the most successful the house has ever known. (Note…In a span of 100 years, the trees have grown up to a point that the river can no longer be seen.)
News roundabout “All the unrest now pervading this country is due to its excessive prosperity. The workingmen all have good jobs and tremen-
dous wages and they want still better jobs and higher wages.” (Note…Time to save money! There is a big World War looming just over the horizon.) Landlord Alfred C. Stone, of the Grand Army House, installed a steam heating plant in his hotel for the comfort of his guests in the coming cold weather. He has made many improvements since he purchased the hotel about a year ago and restored the house to its old time popularity. (Note…George Henry’s Tavern today stands on the site of the Grand Army house which burned many years ago when it was known as the Warren Inn.) The $55 Acorn range advertised recently to be sold by D.E. Pasco to the highest bidder was purchased by John VanAuken of Warrensburgh for $40.25. About 20 bids were received. This month at Haskell’s store in the Will’s block on Hudson Street, a big can of tomatoes is 10 cents, Lenox soap is 7 bars for 25 cents and a full pound of cocoa is on sale for 23 cents. Mrs. Elva Thissell has resigned her position as chief operator of the Commercial Union Telephone Company’s local exchange to take affect at once. She has filled the position for 8 years. One of R.B. Kenyon’s stage horses, the best one of the team, died at Lake George on Tuesday afternoon, Oct. 29, 1912 after reaching that place on the return trip from Glens Falls. The animal was only sick for about an hour. Antoini Lucia, formerly of Warrensburgh, but later of Randolph, Vt., has leased the Everts Hotel in Athol and is now conducting the house. Robert Goodfellow and Miss Cora Warren, both of Warrensburgh, were married by the Rev. S.C. Fox on Tuesday, Oct. 15, 1912 at his home, Fairview Cottage. (Note…Rev. Fox’s home was at the top of Herrick Avenue hill, looking down on the Schroon River.) Miles Culver of Starbuckville is driving team for E.E. Valentine.

Letters to the Editor Supports Stec for Assembly To the Adirondack Journal: Retiring Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward has been a great representative for our district over the past decade. So, her endorsement of Dan Stec, along with over 30 local respected officials leads me to believe he is the right guy for the job. Dan has been serving as the Queensbury Town Supervisor since 2004. He knows what we want at the local level and what we need — lower property taxes and economic growth. As a Town Supervisor, Mr. Stec has led the charge in keeping taxes down. He has even managed to return almost $10 million in rebates to his constituents. Clearly Mr. Stec has the experience to serve in the Assembly and make the real changes we desperately need across New York State. Actions speak louder than words, Dan Stec has the track record of success we deserve representing us in Albany! Vote Stec on Nov. 6. Lane Sayward Willsboro
Groups ask Cuomo to help fight Asian clams (Editor’s Note: Businesses, local governments, environmental organizations and more, from across the region, on Oct. 18 wrote to Gov. Andrew Cuomo urgently requesting his help in combating the growing threat of Asian clams and other invasive species in Lake George.) Dear Gov. Cuomo: We, the undersigned organizations—representing local governments, conservation organizations, businesses, and the scientific community—are appealing to you for your leadership in combating one of the single-biggest threats ever to face Lake George, the spreading presence of Asian clams. Growing alarm over the emerging crisis posed by this invasive species has spurred unprecedented collaboration among our diverse groups. We are united by our commitment to protecting the life blood of the regional economy, the world-renowned water quality of Lake George. We urgently need your help to succeed. While organizations have marshaled $1.5 million since the Asian clam was first found here in 2010, required now is a redoubling of effort and financial resources if we are to curb the impacts of Asian clams and other invasive species. As was just made clear in a recent Albany Times Union editorial (Oct. 2, 2012), “Failure to contain the invasive species in the lake will take an economic toll in the hundreds of millions of dollars.” We are now in the enviable position of being able to prevent this outcome and the tragic legacy it portends for the “Queen of American Lakes,” among the crown jewels of New York and the nation. We are calling on the State of New York to partner with us by committing the additional financing now needed to protect Lake George from the impacts of invasive species and to show how dedicated leadership guid-
ed by common purpose can make a lasting difference.

Conservatives back Doheny in election To the Adirondack Journal: The Conservative Party considers Matt Doheny to be the preeminent choice for Representative of the newly formed 21st Congressional District in the upcoming 2012 election. Matt earned a BA in Political Science from Allegheny College and JD in Business Law from Cornell Law School. After practicing law and gaining experience, he entered the business world. His track record in business is that of great success, helping large troubled companies reorganize, recover from bankruptcy, save jobs and prosper. Matt Doheny has pledged to work diligently on key issues, which include twin challenges of growth and debt, energy, gas prices, national security, health, taxes and the economy. Matt has the experience to create jobs and turn the economy around. He will vote to repeal Obamacare, be a leader in Washington to reduce out of control government spending to reduce our national debt, work toward energy independence and lower gas prices. The Conservative Party believes that Matt Doheny is astute to the most crucial issues facing the North Country, energetic and committed to making upstate a better place to live, work and raise a family. We look forward to forward to electing Matt Doheny as our Representative in the 21st Congressional District. Vote Right. Vote Conservative. Vote Doheny. God Bless America and God Bless and Guide the Conservative Party! Thomas J. Birkholz Sr. Secretary/Treasurer, Warren County Conservative Committee, NYSCP committee member
Sayward asks voters to back Stec To the Adirondack Journal: This letter is in support of Dan Stec for NYS Assembly. I have had the pleasure of knowing Dan for many years and recommend him to fill the seat I have had the pleasure of serving in for the past 10 years. Dan Stec served in the United States Navy with pride and returned to his hometown to give back to the community. Dan is a family man who respects the values that make America so great. He is a Clarkson graduate and is smart and energetic. He recently gained the honor of conquering all of the Adirondacks High Peaks! Dan is smart, energetic, engaged with his constituency and willing to work together to find solutions to tough problems. His work with local businesses, schools, hospitals and his attention to constituents make him the right choice. While serving as Town Supervisor of Queensbury Dan returned budget fund balances to the taxpayers multiple times. This is but one example of his commitment to lower taxes and smaller government. His genuine concern for the people he represents is evident in the work he has already done. Dan understands the complex issues facing businesses struggling to remain viable in the Adirondack Park. He works hard to make sure businesses are not bogged down with overregulation. He works hard every day to maintain the pristine quality of Lake George. As Chairman of the Board of Supervisors he recommended funding to help combat invasives on Lake George. Without a doubt, Dan will hit the ground running in Albany. His knowledge of government, his concern for the taxpayer and his devotion to family will make him an outstanding representative in Albany. Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward Willsboro
Family gives thanks for support To the Adirondack Journal: I would like to thank the community for their outpouring of support for me and my family over the past few months. Since being diagnosed with a rare brain cancer, we have met several challenges, however, lack of support and understanding has not been one of them. We have been blessed to have had several successful benefits including a basket raffle, wresting match and golf tournament. To everyone who helped organize, donated, and participated in the benefits Thank you! Friends, family, colleagues, local businesses, and perfect strangers; the list of people to thank is a vast one. Please know that the help we have received is so greatly appreciated! The generosity we have seen continues to amaze us every day. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!

Regional transportation forum to be held Nov. 5 By Shaun Kittle
shaun@denpubs.com GLENS FALLS — A forum to discuss transportation methods that don’t require fossil fuels will be held at the Crandall Public Library in Glens Falls on Nov. 5. The meeting will be sponsored by Tri County Transition Town, an initiative based
in Essex, Warren and Washington counties whose purpose is to prepare for accelerating economic, oil depletion and climate change challenges by creating more self-reliant communities. Carpooling, idling reduction, increasing community access to public transportation, improving roads for bicyclist safety and alternative fuels will all be discussed.
Speakers at the forum will include Anna Cook, the executive director from Ithaca Car Share; Scott Sopzzyk, the transportation director in Glens Falls; Lloyd Mott, chairman of the Warren County Safe and Quality Cycling Organization; and Jennifer Ceponis, transportation planner for the Capital District Transportation Planning Committee. “The bigger picture is to inspire more involvement and plant more seeds for future projects,” said Diane Collins, one of Tri County Transition Town’s founding members. “We put out there what other communities are doing to be more self-reliant. “ Locally, the Transition Town movement began last spring when Collins attended the showing of the film “In Transition 1.0” in Greenwich, NY. The movie inspired Collins and Lisa Adamson, Bernice Mennis and Kathryn Hull to form the Tri County Transition Town initiative. Now, the group has about 140 people on its email list, had a table at the Glens Falls farmers market last summer and holds infor-
mational forums monthly. Collins said the turnout for each event has been good so far, and she encourages anyone interested in the Transition Town initiative to attend, regardless of where they live. In October, Tri County Transition Town had a program on going green that featured Jamie Rogers, energy program coordinator for the Adirondack North Country Association and in December there will be a program about alternatives to plastic. But November is all about transportation. “As it becomes clearer to the public, despite the political rhetoric, that fossil fuels are not a limitless supply and that we might even see higher gas prices, people need to be aware of other options and maybe work with town councils to implement some of those options,” Collins said. “The more we strengthen our local economies, the better off we’ll all be.” The forum will be held in Crandall Public Library’s community room in Glens Falls on Nov. 5 from 6-8 p.m.

Bicentennial website from page 1 of Warren County lives in California, they can sign the guest book and look at photos people post from the events,” McCann said. The Warren County Historical Society and the Citizens Advisory Committee collaborated on the website. “We wanted to use the website to look at people who have lived here, the places which have changed over the last 100 years and the events that have been held here,” said Stan Cianfarano, president of the Historical Society and Chair of the Citizens Advisory Committee. The webpage describes the history of the county, county organizations and the people who worked hard to establish the site. It includes a calendar of events tied into the bicentennial celebrations, historical photos of and a guest book. Through the photos page, McCann said there will be folders added for each of the celebratory events. Website visitors are encouraged to upload their own photos from the events. “We want this to be interactive for everyone who is celebrating this event around the county,” McCann said.

The county’s 11 towns are: Bolton, Chester, Horicon, Johnsburg, Stony Creek, Hague, Lake George, Lake Luzerne, Thurman, Queensbury and Warrensburg.

Lake George High School awarded for achievement
LAKE GEORGE — The state Department of Education has recognized Lake George the school as one of the highest achieving districts in the state. Named as a Reward School for its high graduation rates, student achievement and academic standards and support, Lake George is the only one designated as such in Warren and Washington counties. One of 250 chosen out of 4,730 schools the distinction puts Lake George in the top 7 percent of schools statewide. “Once again, the Lake George School District has distinguished itself as one of the area’s best,” Superintendent of Schools Patrick Dee said. “Our students performance comes out on top regionally and in the state. This latest designation is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our staff, administration and, most of all, our incredibly committed teachers.” Many of the honored schools earned the honor by improving test scores, graduation rates and support to at-risk students. However, Lake George High School merited the designation for its consistently achieving high scores in all areas, Dee said. “We are part of a very exclusive group of schools with high performance and expectations,” Dee said. “We are very proud.” In addition to producing high-achieving students, Lake George High School shows no significant gaps in achievement. In rating the school, the state notes its high graduation rates, which it deems must exceed 80 percent. Lake George High School consistently graduates in excess of 90 percent of its students within four years. The state also looks at students graduating with an advanced designation or a Career & Technical Education designation. The school must also place in the top 20 percent of all schools in performance as well as have a history of graduating at-risk students. “Though we are pleased to be recognized as a Reward School, we refuse to rest on our laurels,” Dee said. “Every day, we strive to improve our school, both our methods and its atmosphere, so that our students can achieve optimum learning in a safe and supportive environment.”
Lake George Music Festival announces its third season
LAKE GEORGE — The Lake George Music Festival has announced today that it will hold its third season Aug. 1622, 2013. This week long event will feature dozens of open rehearsals and seven classical music performances. The Festival will cap off the week with a Symphony Orchestra performance in the Village’s Shepard Park on Thursday Aug. 22, 2013 at 7:30 p.m.; an event which last summer drew record crowds. All events are free. Since its conception in 2011 the Lake George Music Festival marked a unique turning point in the history of Lake George Village. As it is in fact the Village’s first ever “classical music festival,” LGMF hopes to revamp the way tourists view this popular resort destination. According to the Festival’s Executive Director, Alexander Lombard, “LGMF’s mission is to help promote Lake George as a cultural tourism destination, while providing a unique experience to the world’s most talented young musicians.” Over 70 musicians will participate, many of whom will be attending from the world’s top music conservatories and professional orchestras.

Shared ski team a win-win for NWCS, JCS By Katherine Clark
katherine@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — The North Warren Central School and Johnsburg Central School boards recently approved the merger of their ski teams for a third straight year. JCS Superintendent Mike Markwica said the move allows the districts to save money and that more students benefit with the shared service. “I think it is great when kids get more opportunity to do the things that they like, and I’m happy we get to do this together,” Markwica said. “We had the program (at JCS) and they didn’t have enough students to compete with a full team, so it was a win-win.” Markwica said the measure comes to a vote every year, and JCS board members approved again for the 2012-2013 school year during their Oct. 9 meeting. The North Warren School Board also approved involvement in the program. During their Oct. 22 meeting, JCS Board members approved the coaches for the program: Gary Wilson as the Varsity Nordic Ski Coach, Steve Tomb as the Modified Nordic Ski Coach, and Peter Burns as the Alpine Ski Coach. “This is great for the kids,” NWCS

Superintendent Joseph Murphy said. “Our good skiers get to work and train with the coaches and other good skiers. It’s important for their training to becoming great athletes.” Murphy said the sharing of services worked out a few years ago to allow a JCS student to participate in the school’s bowling team. Now the shared ski team — which originated in 2010 — is proving to be a ongoing partnership between the two districts. NWCS Athletic Director Jason

Humiston said that the 2007-2008 school year was the last year his school had a ski team. Enrollment was down, and the team needed at least five players competing to qualify for matches. “When we had our own team, our numbers were so thin sometimes we couldn’t compete,” Humiston said. “We wanted our kids on a team that would always be able to qualify and it’s worked out well for all of us since.” Currently three NWCS students have signed up for the alpine team
and one is on the nordic team. Students provide their own transportation to Johnsburg, and the school pays the meet fees for using the ski mountain’s facilities. The fees usually run $10 to $16 per meet. The JCS handles all of the coaches’ fees and transportation fees from the school, and students from NWCS provide transportation to the JCS and pay for their ski passes. The shared services save NWCS at least $2,443 annually for a ski coach.

Pasco, who made his money in the lumber, grain and hardware businesses. “These were all pretty prominent people in the area,” said Paul Gilchrist, president of the Warrensburgh Historical Society. “This gives us a chance to entertain and review the lives of these people.” Tickets for this event are $6 and are available from Marilyn Hayes at 623-3436. For those who aren’t too keen on walking around Warrensburg Cemetery at night, but would still like to meet the historical characters in a livelier setting, “Dinner with the Dead” is the answer. The event takes place at Lizzie Keays Restaurant in the River Street Plaza on Oct. 28, and will feature all five characters from the cemetery walk and a fullcourse dinner, all for $36, including tax and tip. For reservations, call Lizzie Keays at 504-4043 by Oct. 24 — space is limited. In Warrensburg, 300 children will participate in a parade sponsored by the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co., a Halloween tradition that began in 1983. The fun begins at 4 p.m. at the Hudson Headwaters Health Network parking lot on Main Street and proceeds for les than a mile to the rear entrance of the Warrensburg Elementary School on James Street, where a panel of judges will hand out 60 trophies for winners of categories like funniest, scariest and most original costume. “We parade them around the gym by age,” said Kevin Geraghty, president of the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co. “The costumes that always stand out are the ones the parents made.” Although the participants are mostly elementary school age, adults and out-of-towners alike are welcome to join in the fun. The Lake George Historical Association will host a free Halloween open house on Oct. 28 from 1-4 p.m. Refreshments and snacks will available as visitors browse books on ghosts of the Lake George area and local history.

QUEENSBURY — Halloween may be a fun holiday for kids, but for parents, trick-or-treat time may be a bit tricky, according to Warren County Sheriff Bud York. Your county sheriff would like to provide the following safety tips to help you plan a safe, fun Halloween for your family.
Parents with younger kids: •Should accompany young children. •Plan to trick-or-treat while it's still light out. •Walk with your children to each house and wait in the driveway for them.
Costumes •Face paint is safer than a mask — and it's more fun. •Choose costumes in light colors or add reflective tape. •Check that costumes are flame-retardant and not so long as to pose a tripping hazard.
Treats: •Children should save all their candy until they get home. •Feed your children a meal or substantial snack before trick or treating so they are less tempted to eat the candy. •Inspect all treats when you get home. Throw away any unwrapped, open, or suspicious looking goodies. •If your child becomes suddenly ill, IMMEDIATELY call your doctor or dial 911. Try to determine what the child has eaten and where it came from. Save all wrappers.
Trick-or-Treaters should: •Travel in pairs or groups and stay together. •Walk on the sidewalk or on the left side of the road facing traffic. •Stop, look and listen at corners. •Plan a safe route; stop only at familiar homes where the outside lights are on. •Carry a flashlight or glow stick. •Carry a cell phone if trick or treating without an adult. •Be respectful of other people and their property.
At home
Trick-or-treaters should NOT:
•Put away anything treaters could trip over.
•Go inside a stranger's house or get
•Turn the lights on and replace any burned-out bulbs at the walkway and front door. •Remember, your jack-o-lantern and any other candles or electrical decorations can be a fire hazard. Keep them out of the reach of small children and away from flammable materials. •Never leave your house unattended. If you have to leave your house, make sure all the doors are locked.
Don’t have kids? •If driving on Halloween, watch for trick or treaters in the streets and darting out from between parked cars. •If hosting or attending a Halloween celebration that includes alcohol, be responsible! Don't drink and drive! Sheriff York also recommends that people map out your route and check it against the New York State Sex Offender Registry at www.criminaljustice.ny.gov/nsor. It is a good practice to check in with this vital public safety resource a couple of times each year. Review these safety guidelines with your family and set ground rules before heading out. Our office will have increased patrols on Oct. 31, but a little planning on your part is the best way to ensure a safe, fun Halloween.

West Brook Conservation Initiative gets $500k grant LAKE GEORGE — The diverse public and private partners working to establish an environmental park in Lake George Village — known as the West Brook Conservation Initiative — Oct. 23 announced a recently approved grant for $500,000 from The Wright Family Foundation. This leadership grant will support creation of the Children’s Adventure Play Area that promises to be an interactive centerpiece of the park once completed. “The Foundation’s visionary gift represents a legacy investment in the most ambitious environmental restoration project ever undertaken for Lake George. It is an investment that will deliver returns for many generations to come, to the delight of children and adults alike, as well as to the lake we all love,” said Eric Siy, Executive Director of The FUND for Lake George, one of the partnering groups behind the project. Heather Ward, Executive Director of the Foundation said, “The Wright Family Foundation is pleased to support this extraordinary environmental conservation initiative that will help safeguard Lake George for our children and grandchildren. We are encouraged by the collaboration and partnership of The FUND for Lake George, the Lake George As-
sociation, the Lake George Land Conservancy, and local governments that have made this park possible. The grant furthers our mission of making this world a better place for children and the environment. We are delighted to contribute to this project as stewards of our precious lake for the future.” These sentiments were echoed by numerous other individuals who have been central to development of the project, including Lake George Village Mayor Bob Blais who said, “The Wright Family Foundation’s extremely generous grant will allow us to complete the creative and unique Children’s Adventure Play Area and further our efforts towards protecting Lake George.” Joining in the plaudits for the Foundation’s major contribution was Walt Lender, Executive Director of the Lake George Association, who said, “The Children’s Play Area promises to be a magnet for children of all ages and a defining feature of an extraordinary park designed to entertain even as it helps protect the environmental health of our beloved lake. Construction of the play area would not have been possible without the vital support of The Wright Family Foundation and numerous other contributors that have
come together to embrace the vision and fulfill the promise of this very special place.” The West Brook Conservation Initiative is building a new stormwater treatment complex at the south end of Lake George to clean millions of gallons of polluted stormwater and remove sediment, contaminants and pollutants as well as high levels of nutrients, such as phosphorus and nitrogen, before they enter the lake. Complementing this extensive treatment component is the environmental park on the 12acre site of the former, and long dormant, Gaslight Village property in the Village of Lake George. Interpretative education, outdoor play, and live entertainment are all central features of the park. Design of the environmental park has been done by Elan, PLLC of Saratoga Springs, NY. Fundamental to the success of the project has been a $15 million capital campaign led by the public and private interests involved. These interests include two of the area’s local governments, the Village of Lake George and Warren County, and three environmental groups, The FUND for Lake George, the Lake George Association and the Lake George Land Conservancy. Completion of the park is expected in late 2014.
Judge signs restraining order for rafting company in North Creek By Andy Flynn
andy@denpubs.com JOHNSTOWN — A state Supreme Court judge Friday, Oct. 19 officially prohibited the Hudson River Rafting Company and its owner, Patrick Cunningham of North Creek, from operating a rafting business until charges from the state attorney general have been addressed. Justice Richard Giardino signed the temporary restraining order — which was drawn up on Oct. 11 — in Supreme Court at the Fulton County Courthouse in Johnstown (Hamilton County does not have a Supreme Court room). The next court date was set for Nov. 8 as the attorney general seeks a permanent injunction against the company. “This company has operated illegally, claimed to provide licensed rafting guides and said that every precaution would be taken to ensure the safety of rafters,” Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said in a pre-
pared statement. “There was a pattern of practices indicating it did none of that, resulting in the recent tragic death of a white water rafter. As a result of today’s order, this company is no longer operating.” On Oct. 10, Schneiderman filed a petition against the Hudson River Rafting Company and Cunningham, alleging that the company and its owner practiced “fraudulent, deceptive, and illegal conduct with their business providing guided river excursions on various New York rivers.” Schneiderman is trying to recover restitution and damages for consumers victimized by the respondents’ alleged practices and to recover penalties and costs. When contacted by this newspaper, Cunningham said he had “zero” comments regarding the attorney general’s petition or the court order. The attorney general charges that the company has broken the law for: •repeatedly not providing licensed guides on rafting excursions;
•persistent false advertising; •repeatedly having employees drive customers on the company’s bus from North Creek to Indian Lake without valid drivers’ licenses for operating a bus; •and statutory fraud by “misrepresenting the services they provide.” The alleged violations have included providing guides with no licenses or, in some cases, providing no guides at all. Moreover, the attorney general takes issue with the company’s advertisements stating that they provide “safe” guided river rafting excursions. As part of the petition, the attorney general is seeking $5,000 for each violation of the General Business Law (false advertising claims). Consumers have been injured — and one killed — during the company’s rafting trips. A Tamara F. Blake, 53, of Columbus, Ohio, died in a rafting accident Sept. 27 on the Hudson River, and her Hudson River Rafting Company guide was arrested after police
found him to be intoxicated. Cunningham had been indicted in Hamilton County Court on two counts of seconddegree reckless endangerment for incidents in 2010. However, on March 29, that indictment was adjourned “in contemplation of dismissal” until Sept. 29 under three conditions. On Sept. 5, Hamilton County District Attorney Marsha Purdue applied to restore the indictment against Cunningham and his company because Cunningham had allegedly violated the March 29 agreement by allegedly leaving his raft with two customers aboard 4 miles before the end of a May 27 trip down the Hudson River; and allegedly sending two customers down the river on Aug. 26 in a “duckie” without a licensed guide and without signing a rental agreement. A hearing is scheduled for Nov. 20 to determine whether Cunningham violated the March 29 agreement.
Oktoberfest’s success may spawn new Italian festival in Lake George By Thom Randall

LAKE GEORGE — Mayor Robert Blais said that the success of the recent Oktoberfest — during which a crowd of people swarming on the village’s main drag displaced traffic for two days — was so substantial that another similar event is being planned. “We’ve receive a tremendous number of letters from people who had a great time at Oktoberfest, and merchants said the event was very successful,” he said to town board members at the board’s Oct. 15 meeting. Lake George Oktoberfest, held Oct. 6 and 7, included barricading one block of Canada St. — one of the region’s busiest venues — for two days. That block, turned over to thousands of festival attendees for two days, was between Amherst and Montcalm Streets, the heart of the village. Merchants along the block reported business equal to or surpassing a busy summer day. Blais said the local citizens planning the Oktoberfest now were now seeking to replicate the success with an Italian-themed fes-
tival. Blais said the group considered having the debut event on the weekend in 2013 closest to Oct. 1 — between the Adirondack Balloon Festival and the Warrensburg’s World’s Largest Garage Sale — two quite popular events. Town Board member Ray Perry suggested the Italian festival be held sooner — in April when few big events occur. Blais responded that holding an event in Spring offers limited opportunity for promotion with visitors, unlike holding an event in fall, when advance publicity can reach hundreds of thousands of summer visitors. Blais said the Italian Festival could include promoting Lake George as the “Pizza Capital of the World,” and be a vibrant, festive occasion with music, food and customs reflecting the culture of Italy. Blais added that due to the overwhelming public response to Oktoberfest, various new vendors are seeking space for next year ’s edition, and the regional Corvette Club is seeking to hold its annual show in conjunction with Lake George’s festival of German beer, food, and music.
Fifth-sixth-grade Burgher football team ends season with win WARRENSBURG — The Warrensburg fifth- and sixthgrade football squad finished its season with a 44-28 win against Hudson Falls on Saturday, Oct. 20. With 450 yards of rushing, the little Burghers pulled out a hard-fought victory on under beautiful skies. “This is quite an accomplishment for these young men to come into their home after a rough season and pull off this win,” said Coach Gary Baker II. “It was a great way to end the season for sure.” They played like they knew they could, and having no turnovers was the key. “What a group of kids this is,” Baker said. Quarterback Maclane Baker led the offense flawlessly handing the ball off to Evan Macduff, Jaron Griffin, Jessie Griffin and Danny Kelly. Macduff finished with more than 250 yards and 1 touchdown. Jessie Griffin had 2 touchdowns. Jaron Griffin had 2 touchdowns plus a 2-point conversion. Danny Kelly had 2 touchdowns. Defense was led by Jackson Czuba with 5 tackles and 1
sack; Hunter Mosher, 5 tackles; Jackson Corriveau, 5 tackles; Danny Kelly, 6 tackles; Nolan Mcneil, 6 tackles; Evan Macduff, 5 tackles; and Kurt Fuller, 5 tackles. “I would like to thank all of our kids for a very fun season,” Baker said. “Although only a few make the news, all of them deserve credit, and without them there is no team.” Other players who worked hard this season were: Peyton Olden, Brandon Bailey, Bill Cameron, Neil Galvin, Chris Wilson, Sean Winter, Wyatt Baker, Reece Rundell, Tommy Moore, Ryan Mosher, David Luck, Nate Fuller, Zachary Barber, Brennan Stone, Carter Carpenter, Braley Duell and Mike Mumblow. This is the end of the road for some of Coach Baker ’s youth football coaches. “I am losing three coaches this year who have been such a big part of this program for years as their kids have aged out,” Baker said. “It is only fitting for me to say thank you to them and their families for the sacrifice they make for two to three months a year: defensive coach Joe Sutphin; assistant coach Rich Bailey; and assistant coach Larry Olden.”
