Weekly Lake George fireworks jeopardized

By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

LAKE GEORGE | The weekly Thursday night fireworks which many thousands of people to Lake George may be canceled this summer unless local merchants pay towards their cost, Lake George Mayor Bob Blais said this week.

Blais has sent out a letter to local store owners and area businesses stating that due to expensive projects the village is undertaking this year, it can no longer foot the $60,000 sponsorship cost.

That money — drawn from occupancy tax revenue — needs to go towards renovating the Shepard Park rest rooms and several other pending projects, he said.

“It will take $180,000 to do the job right in upgrading the rest rooms so they are a credit to our community,” Blais said, noting that Shepard Park is booked with events every night through this summer. » Fireworks Cont. on pg. 3

POTTERSVILLE | The Pottersville Food Pantry opened Jan. 3 without a lot of customers, but with a supply of food items available for local residents.

Judy Carr, executive director of the North Country Ministry (NCM), said the organization established the Pottersville Food Pantry after local people suggested there might be a need in the community.

“Our mission is to serve the under-served in the Adirondacks, and carrying that to Pottersville is the natural next step,” Carr said.

DEC removes fuel storage tanks from former Johnsburg Garage site

The state Department of Environmental Conservation removed two petroleum storage tanks from the site of the former Johnsburg Garage. Warren County has the property under foreclosure proceedings for back taxes, and has been reluctant to take over the property due to possible contamination.

County authorizes $15,000 to pay for clean-up work

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

JOHNSBURG | The state Department of Environmen-

tal Conservation has confirmed it has removed petroleum storage tanks at the former Johnsburg Garage, located on state Route 8 at Oven Mountain Road.

The Warren County Board of Supervisors authorized $15,000 from the county’s reserve for environmental testing for a line item to pay the DEC for clean-up work at the site of the former auto repair shop.

Erica Ringewald, a DEC spokesperson, said the depart-

ment hired a contractor to remove the underground petroleum storage tanks from the site.

“DEC also excavated and disposed of petroleum-contaminated soil from around the outside of the building at an approved facility. Some minor site restoration remains to be completed,” Ringewald said.

Last month, county lawmakers approved an order of consent and an agreement with the DEC regarding site remediation.

The county agreed to pay for the petroleum storage tank removal, and the state would remediate the site, allowing the county to take possession of the property and put it out for sale.

At a Dec. 15 meeting, Glens Falls Ward 3 supervisor Claudia Braymer, chairman of the Real Property & Environmental Concerns Committee, said the way has not yet been cleared for the county to demolish the building.

“The county has not yet taken ownership of the property,” she said. “There is no consent order, yet.”

The county and the DEC have been discussing the Johnsburg Garage property during foreclosure talks for over a year.

Prior to the DEC starting the clean-up project, the county did not desire to take possession of the property because of the chance of petroleum contamination. Without the consent order, the county was also prevented from doing anything on the property.

In November, Braymer said Warren County should be able to take possession of the property by next fall.

When contacted by phone on Dec. 18, she said it could take a little longer depending on how much contamination the DEC had to remove from the site.

“As it still stands, if the DEC is able to get everything done, it may take longer for the county to take possession,” Braymer said.

Former Warren County Attorney Brian Reichenbach confirmed in July the county had a foreclosure action against the owner for unpaid taxes.

At the time, he said the law prevented the county from going on the property and cleaning it up. Braymer said the county might not seek to demolish the quonset hut-roofed building, but leave it for the next property owner, meaning it could still be standing for some time int he future.

“The county will not touch the building until the DEC is done, then we can sell it and the next property owner can demolish it,” she said. ■

Dems seeking to defeat Stefanik joust to escape from the pack by tearing into Stefanik again and again, namely Don Boyajian and Katie Wilson.

“I can take that girl on, and give people in this district a reason to get off the couch and vote,” Wilson said.

family medical issue, and Steven Schnibbe did not respond to the invitation, organizers said.

Finley sent over a statement.

“This race is about which Democrats will be challenging me in the November election,” he said.

While the Cook Political Report ranks New York’s 21st Congressional District as “solid Republican,” Stefanik faces the tailwinds of a deeply unpopular and polarizing president.

For much of the night, Stefanik, a Republican, was a punching bag, and was criticized for not being accessible via town hall meetings; for voting for what attendees said was damaging legislation and for not having the best interests of her constituents in mind.

“Elise Stefanik has milewide support that’s an inch deep,” said Sara Idleman, a Washington County lawmaker and Greenwich town supervisor. “She has a record, and that record is voting against the interests of the district.”

She added: “Where’s Elise?”

“She’s elusive,” yelled an audience member.

The crowd jeered in agreement.

Stefanik did not attend, and a campaign spokesman did not respond to an email seeking comment.

But representatives for Stefanik in the past have touted the second-term lawmaker’s numerous district events and constituent meetings, defended her voting record and said Stefanik is focused on continued service to her constituents.

“We are enjoying watching the Democratic primary process play itself out,” said Essex County Republican Party Committee Chairman Shaun Gillilland. “It is easy to see there is a wide range of talent in the parade of contenders.”

Two Republicans are also vying for the primary nomination.

Russell Finley didn’t attend owing to a

With eight candidates, the panel often dragged — particularly as the discussion delved into policy on which the candidates largely agreed.

Each hopeful said they believe in a $15 minimum wage and “common sense” gun control legislation.

All eight disagree with the tax overhaul bill, and agree that opiate addiction should be treated as a public health issue.

But on buoying the region’s moribund economy, the octet was all over the map.

Boyajian brandished a composition notebook he called his “to-do book,” and said job creation can be attributed, in part, to sitting on the right congressional committees.

Martz highlighted her two decades of work in the economic development sector and said New York’s 21st Congressional District needs to invest in clean energy; Cobb said health care drives economic growth and cited the need for workforce development.

Nelson said broadband was key; Boone cited the need to develop infrastructure and places like the Advanced Institute of Manufacturing in Plattsburgh, and Idleman called for investment in small- and medium-sized businesses.

Wilson, who lives in Keene, said the acquisition of state land drives development, and Kim said he’d hold an annual business summit to glean ideas from a brain trust.

Eric Rosenburg of Wilton listened attentively.

“None of this matters if you can’t win this election,” he said. ■ To read the full story online, visit suncommunitynews.com

Eight candidates seek to draw contrast as they work to unseat second-term lawmaker

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

SOUTH GLENS FALLS | The eight Democratic candidates vying for Rep. Elise Stefanik’s seat met Sunday at the Moreau Community Center in South Glens Falls to make their case to voters.

The afternoon forum, while thick on policy, was also about winnowing down the growing field, organizers said.

“We hope today to start that process,” said Robert Lippman, co-founder of Citizens Acting Together 21, the grassroots group that organized the event.

Wendy Johnson, a political science professor at SUNY Adirondack, moderated the panel.

“Several people expressed concerns over the number of people running,” she said.

Idleman, Tedra Cobb) and union ties (Tanya Boone) to give the standing room-only crowd enough to ponder.

Others touted their policy chops.

Ronald Kim, a Saratoga-based attorney, cited legal precedent and policies he’d pursue if elected, and said he’d bring that legal experience to the seat.

Patrick Nelson, a Stillwater-based political activist, sought to embrace Bernie Sanders’ brand of class struggle at every opportunity.

“This has been the Democratic Party’s deal with the devil for decades,” he said, citing the party’s reliance on corporate donations.

And others sought to define themselves

Candidates were asked to distinguish their campaigns in their opening remarks.

» Fireworks Cont. from pg. 1 In addition, the village is facing costs of improving and enlarging the Shepard Park amphitheater, repairing the village Visitors Center, and renovating the village sewer plant, which is expected to cost local taxpayers $14 million after grants reduce the net cost.

In prior years, Blais has sent out letters to many dozens of businesses seeking support for fireworks, and he’s had minimal response except for a few generous donors, he said,

noting that local merchants directly benefit from the aerial displays that draw huge crowds.

“As the Thursday night fireworks are one of our most popular promotions — they draw people from all over — it’s only fair that the merchants pay for them,” he said.

Blais said the village government would continue to sponsor the traditional Fourth of July fireworks plus three or four other special aerial shows accompanying such events as the Adirondack Nationals Car Show and the Hemmings Concours d’Elegance auto show which is returning to Lake

George Sept. 14 through 16.

Blais added that he would be asking Lake George Chamber of Commerce officials for their group to contribute towards the cost of Thursday night fireworks.

Presently, the town of Lake George pays the village about $17,000 annually towards events and fireworks.

“Unless we find enough sponsors to pick up costs, we’re looking at a reduced number of fireworks shows,” he said.

“We need people to step up to the plate.” ■

Hiring process for county attorney questioned Supervisors question validity of interview process

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

QUEENSBURY | Supervisors Claudia Braymer and Douglas Beaty were among the Warren County lawmakers questioning the process for selecting a new county attorney.

Mary Kissane was confirmed as the new Warren County attorney on Thursday after serving as acting attorney following the resignation of Brian Reichenbach last September.

Beaty questioned the merit of a brief interview process for » Museum Cont. from pg. 1

Museum aims to construct permanent new art gallery, replace heating systems

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE | It was a busy year for the Adirondack Experience: The Museum on Blue Mountain Lake.

The 60-year-old facility rebranded and rolled out a new exhibit.

And 2017 ended with a bang via the announcement of $1.1 million in state grant funds, allowing a pair of critical projects to move forward.

The museum was awarded $600,000 from the state’s Regional Economic Development Council program for their proposed new Ad-

what he considers “the most important position in the county.”

“Twenty-minute interviews, no second interview, no references requested,” Beaty said. “(Kissane) may be the best candidate, but you never every make a decision based on a 20-minute interview. This is how we get in trouble.”

Beaty referred to what he considered a quick decision to sell the former county-owned Westmount Health Facility to Centers Health Care out of New York City.

“We sold it to people who had no business buying it,” he said.

The facility’s federal quality rating dropped from four stars in December 2015 to just one star after a February 2017 inspection.

“When are we going to make common sense decisions?”

Beaty said.

irondack Art and Design Center.

While the “Life in the Adirondacks” exhibit marked the first phase in a massive upgrade as part of the museum’s 2014 master plan, the creation of a new permanent home for the facility’s cache of artwork is the second.

The facility currently rotates their 300 paintings in and out of circulation.

The upcoming Adirondack Art and Design Center will showcase the “best of the best,” said Executive Director David Kahn.

“This will essentially be a museum within the museum,” Kahn said. “There will be nothing else like it anywhere in the region.”

Planning for the $2.5 million project will commence in 2018, including determining the exact space and audio-visual components.

As part of the same round of funding, the museum was granted $500,000 for climate control upgrades to the building hosting the flashy new $8 million “Life in the Adirondacks” exhibit.

The current heating, ventilation and air conditioning system dates back to 1969.

Braymer said after the meeting she was concerned about the lack of process.

“One of the candidates selected by the committee did not even get called for a first interview. Three were not brought back for a second interview. The process was cut short,” she said One member of the public, Travis Whitehead, also questioned the criteria for hiring a new attorney, calling the process “anything but open and fair.”

Chestertown Supervisor Craig Leggett defended the decision to hire Kissane, saying she had previously served as assistant county attorney.

Kissane was hired into that position in May 2016.

“She has worked with the county, and has demonstrated her knowledge and ability to do the work,” Leggett said. ■

“Given the age of the equipment, it was never designed for contemporary museum standards, so it’s tough to maintain controls in the galleries,” Kahn said.

The total price tag to upgrade the system in the 45,000-square-foot building is $1.1 million, and the museum is continuing to eye grants for the remaining portions.

Over time, the museum hopes to replace the systems in many of the 24 buildings that constitute the 121-acre campus.

“This a great start, and we really appreciate the state’s support,” Kahn said.

VISITATION UP

The museum caused waves last spring when it rebranded.

Gone was the old name — the Adirondack Museum — as well as the iconic logo of the river guide carrying a guideboat on this back.

But Kahn said the public blowback was minimal.

“I think it went really well,” Kahn said. “Whenever there’s change, there’s always pushback.”

The uproar “wasn’t even a hiccup” when

compared to past fights the director had navigated — including navigating branding changes for New York City-area nonprofits.

“We got maybe a half-dozen letters, calls or emails,” Kahn said.

And the criticism was more over the logo than the name.

“By and large, there was great acceptance of the change,” he said.

The museum announced the new name and look last April, citing the need to better connect with new audiences, as well as to better compete with emerging destinations in the Adirondack region and around the northeast.

The strategy worked, said Kahn, citing exit studies taken last season.

Those surveys revealed that the uptick in visitation wasn’t necessarily tied to the new “Life in the Adirondacks” exhibit, which the museum branded as the most ambitious in its history.

“Visitation is up for the year, and we’re going to continue to build that as we move forward,” he said. ■

Conover again to chair Warren County supers Braymer nominates McDevitt, but bid fails

McDevitt objected to Dickinson’s characterization of Braymer’s comments.

Dickinson noted his objection before moving ahead with the vote.

Braymer said after the meeting she was insulted by Dickinson’s treatment of her and her comments.

“He called it a diatribe,” she said.

Queensbury Supervisor Douglas Beaty said it was important to have independent leadership and full transparency, but said he has been disappointed at what he said was its recurring absence.

Newly sworn member Bill Loeb from Glens Falls said McDevitt would make “a great chairman” while saying Conover has done a good job.

Conover received the support of 12 supervisors, amounting to 570 votes of 1,000 possible, and Glens Falls Ward 2 supervisor Peter McDevitt had the support of six supervisors, for 350 votes.

One supervisor was absent, and the Glens Falls Ward 5 seat is vacant, meaning 80 votes were counted as absent.

After the vote, Dickinson said the legislative body was “extremely fortunate” to have Conover as its chairman.

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

QUEENSBURY | Bolton Supervisor Ronald Conover was chosen by his peers to serve a second one-year term as the chairman of the Warren County Board of Supervisors — but without a unanimous vote.

Glens Falls Ward 3 Supervisor Claudia Braymer had to fend off efforts by Queensbury Supervisor Matthew Sokol to close nominations after Conover was nominated .

“This board should no longer take for granted decisions made by a few and rubberstamped by the board,” Braymer said.

Braymer said if her motion received a second, she would like to have discussion on the matter.

But the temporary chairman, Lake George’s Dennis Dickinson, called for a vote.

“This chair has tolerated your diatribe,” he said.

He said whoever acts as chairman has to handle their own town and preside over the county board, all the while giving up a lot of free time that could be spent with family.

Conover said he asked acting county administrator Kevin Geraghty to stay on until a permanent replacement could be found.

He asked Sokol to continue as chairman of the Finance Committee and as deputy chair.

Conover touted several of the county’s accomplishments in 2017, including preparing a 2018 budget on time and under the tax cap.

Warren County, he said, had Aa bond rating, and had built up a nearly $17.3 million surplus. ■

Future looks From the Editorial Board bright for locally- State must cut spending in wake owned media of brutal budget forecast

The past year was an encouraging one for The Sun as we continue to grow and fill in the service voids left by other media, whose priorities seem to be elsewhere.

By Dan Alexander In the winter edition of the Amer• PUBLISHER • ican Prospect, Robert Kuttner and Hildy Zenger do an excellent job of explaining what’s been taking place in our industry and why so many media companies seem to be fading and shirking their responsibilities at a time when it would seem we need them the most.

The internet isn’t the primary reason for declining local media, but rather local media ownership and their operational purposes are the reason for the decline.

Here are some excerpts and the link to the entire article: “The real tragedy for the civic commons is occurring at the level of regional papers. Local dailies and weeklies are in a slow death spiral. Operating losses cause owners to lay off staff and shrink content, further depressing readership and ad income, leaving little to reinvest in digital.

“This story is all too true, but it leaves out one major player. Private equity has been gobbling up newspapers across the country and systematically squeezing the life out of them to produce windfall profits, while the papers last. The cost to democracy is incalculable.”

Robust civic life depends on good local newspapers, the report argues.

“Without the informed dialogue that a newspaper enables, the public business is the private province of the local commercial elite, voters are uninformed, and elected officials are unaccountable.”

The authors go on to ask if private equity is any worse than traditional chains.

“The big chains like Gannett, McClatchy, and Cowles got overextended and made some bad business decisions in the decade before the collapse, resulting in severe downsizing,” the report determined. “But some of these owners retained a commitment to newspapers as a public calling.”

Bernie Lunzer, president of the NewsGuildCWA, said the traditional chains had to downsize.

“But they still thought like newspaper people— what sustains the product and the community,” he said. “With private equity, it’s about squeezing out the 20 percent and anything goes. Use it up, sell it, or just kill it. The profit is the product.”

“In isolated corners of the United States, community journalists are succeeding at keeping independent papers alive.”

An informal survey of independent weekly publishers found them reporting profit margins ranging from 2 percent to 15 percent—but all of them were profitable.

The entire article can be found at prospect.org/ article/saving-free-press-private-equity.

The Sun falls into one of these isolated corners and has every intention of fulfilling its mission to serve the local region.

We have the skilled staff, equipment, and only need your support to keep our efforts expanding in the years ahead. ■

For the past year, Gov. Andrew Cuomo has been on a warpath, leading a crusade against what he views as a “federal assault” on health care, the environment and social justice issues.

The governor was dealt a resounding defeat last month after the president signed the federal tax reform bill into law.

But following months of lobbying against the bill, the governor is not giving up.

“We have not yet begun to fight, my friends,” he told attendees at the annual State of the State address last week.

The event is usually an avenue for the governor to outline his vision for the year ahead and give the legislature their marching orders.

But his address was heavy on lightning bolts hurled towards Washington, D.C. GOP lawmakers scoffed at the clear nod to his rumored 2020 ambitions.

All of the rhetoric was there.

The tax bill is “trickle down on steroids.”

It’s “an economic dagger pointed at the heart of New York,” and is a concentrated transfer of wealth from blue states to red ones, he said.

The governor has reason to be furious.

High-income earners will certainly be hit in the pocketbooks with the rollback of SALT, which means the federal deduction that people can take for state and local taxes is now capped at $10,000.

The reduction will effectively raise property taxes by 20 or 25 percent for wealthy homeowners, the governor said, and will lead to an exodus from the Empire State.

It also has the side effect of eroding

one of the two-term governor’s signature accomplishments, which is wrangling the state’s high property taxes into control.

Cuomo floated the idea of a lawsuit, calling the repeal unconstitutional and a concentrated effort to punish liberal states like New York, New Jersey and California who voted against Trump.

That’s on shaky legal ground, say experts, as is his trial balloon to reduce reliance on the state’s income tax in favor of a statewide payroll tax on employers.

But obscured in the governor’s cloud of gloom is the fact that middle-income households will actually see a tax cut this year Those earning between $49,000 to $86,000 will see an average cut of $930, according to the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center.

Instead of threatening lawsuits and exploring tax code workarounds, what the state should really do is reduce spending.

Cuomo has hammered the state’s Republican delegation for voting for the bill, and he has hammered the lawmakers who voted against it, anyways, claiming they should have done more to stop it.

Th is includes Elise Stefanik, who the governor said last month should be doing more to work with local governments to reduce property taxes.

She has. It was called the CollinsFaso Amendment, which would have relieved counties of paying Medicaid shares to the state, long a chief complaint of local officials.

County executives welcomed it, but the governor railed against in similarly apocalyptic language at the time before the health care bill it was attached to

Higher gas prices in Elizabethtown: Need or greed?

To the Editor: So, a month ago a local fellow said to me, “We’re getting screwed on our gas prices in E’town, do you know why?”

I responded, “No, I guess I don’t know why or if it’s even true.”

But now I do know — sort of.

On Christmas Eve, I was in Plattsburgh and filled up my car at the Cornelia Street Stewart’s Shop at $2.55 per gallon.

I had earlier noticed the South Catherine Street Stewart’s price was $2.52 per gallon.

Across the street from where I filled up, the Sunoco price was $2.57 per gallon and Sam’s Club was $2.47 per gallon.

Back in Elizabethtown, the Stewart’s Shop price was $2.69, with the Sunoco Station price of $2.70, which was 23 cents more than the cheapest in Plattsburgh.

A bit of research revealed that gas pricing is influenced by several factors, location being the leading issue.

The distributors and station owners price gas based on traffic patterns, immediate area affluence, nearby competition, sales volume, delivery costs, property costs, and in the case of convenience store/gas stations, other sale volume.

went down in flames.

He can’t have it both ways.

While the cause of the state’s high property taxes can be attributed to many things, it’s hard to ignore the state’s generous safety net.

To be fair, there were some moving parts to his speech, including Cuomo recalling his father and his brand of “pragmatic progressivism.”

Cuomo the Younger defined this as restoring confidence in government by delivering practical accomplishments: “People need food, people need housing, people need education, people need justice,” Cuomo said. “They don’t need theoretical progressive politics, they need practical politics, actual politics, that makes a difference in their lives because they’re suffering today and they need life made better for them.”

It’s all very noble sounding, but as the state faces a $6 billion shortfall, shouldn’t we dial some of that back?

There’s a lot to admire in the governor’s ambitious agenda, including measures to curb sexual harassment, improve the state’s infrastructure and invest in clean energy.

But the state must take a scalpel to its generous social programs instead of filing a lawsuit and reworking its entire tax code.

And instead of beating up on local governments for high property taxes, the state should bring school districts, the chief driver of escalating property taxes, into the conversation when it comes to sharing services.

-The Sun Editorial Board ■

In situations like Sam’s, it appears to be questionable to lowball gas prices in hopes of making it up on other sales from nearby big stores.

In Elizabethtown, prices are 23 cents higher because they can do it if they wish, but it’s difficult to determine if it’s need or greed.

Accusations angst, anger mark start to year in Thurman Officials spar over salaries, scrapping positions, town procedures

By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

THURMAN | Soon after the new Thurman town board members were sworn in at the town’s annual organizational meeting last week, controversy erupted much like it did one year ago.

Although heated arguments occurred and accusations were exchanged Jan. 4 between three of the five members of the reconstituted board, the scene was not as chaotic as one year ago when shoving occurred among townspeople, board members left the room and police were called to restore order, and the meeting ended.

But arguments continued over the entire course of the five-hour meeting.

CHANGE IN GUARD

This verbal crossfire between the two warring political factions in town was prompted by the balance of power reversing for a second time in two years.

Last year, board member Cynthia Hyde sought to curtail the power of long-time Supervisor Evelyn Wood, who has since retired from office, leading to the appointment and subsequent election of Hyde to the position of supervisor in November.

Newly elected board member and Wood ally Gail Seaman regained her seat after being ousted a year before, and sought to redirect the thrust of town government on Thursday.

Seaman arrived armed with a slate of proposed resolutions the trio had prepared, most

of which sought to impose financial austerity and accountability.

Their resolution drafts prompted objections from Hyde and her ally Joan Harris, who was appointed to the board last February following the departure of councilman Jey Youngblood who left his position along with Wood in January as the prior board majority began to dismantle Wood’s initiatives.

“I am chairman, you are not,” Hyde said to Seaman, objecting to Seaman introducing the rebel resolutions.

Town Attorney Mark Schachner, seated at Hyde’s side, said that some of the trio’s resolutions appeared to overlap the ones that Hyde had prepared.

Seaman started to respond, but Schachner yelled back at her, prompting some shocked expressions among townspeople.

“Excuse me, I would strongly prefer that you not interrupt me,” he shouted at Seaman.

“I am asking for some civility.”

“Then do not yell at me,” Seaman responded, explaining that she was attempting to resolve the overlap in the competing resolutions.

SALARY SCRAP

Considerable controversy erupted over eliminating the salary of the deputy town clerk, scrapping the post of the assessor’s clerk, and limiting the supervisor’s secretary’s compensation to $12.50 per hour for a maximum of 15 hours per week — with no benefits.

“Have you done your homework? Have you come to the town hall, learned your way around and met all the employees before you make decisions on these resolutions tonight?”

Hyde asked Needham and Ackley, referring to the proposals to cut positions and reduce pay.

A citizen in the audience said Hyde was “bullying the two.”

FINANCIAL SCRUTINY

“The town board members have been spending money like drunken sailors,” Seaman said after asking Hyde several times without success to get last year’s bank statements from her office and share them with the board.

“But the deputy town clerk has always received compensation since this town was formed,” Hyde responded. “We’re not in financial stress.

I know we have plenty of money.”

Hyde read off figures from a paper she held up.

“This budget shows all these revenues that will be coming in this year — that’s how you pay your bills,” she continued. “You don’t expect to pay your bills from money left over from last year. We’re not in the business of socking money away.”

“But you have to have operating money on hand,” Seaman countered. “That’s how you pay your bills.”

One of the resolutions that Seaman, Ackley and Needham proposed was a mandate for Hyde, as the town’s chief financial officer, to

Frintz, 91, former owner of the Black Mountain Ski Lodge in North Creek, passed away on Dec. 7, 2017 in Warrenton, VA after a short illness.

Born Sept. 4, 1926 in Zendersch, Austria (now Romania), George grew up in a farming village where his father was a furrier and winemaker.

At 17, he was drafted into the German army during World War II and was held as a prisoner of war in a Russian prison camp in Siberia from 1945 to 1948.

After being released, he immigrated to the United States, where a Methodist minister sponsored him to work on a dairy farm in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.

4-H Adirondack Guides opens new member orientation

Seaman said that it was appropriate for the board to make the decisions at the year’s beginning, not later.

Ackley and Needham said they were comfortable making the decisions at the Jan. 4 meeting.

Hyde grilled Seaman, Needham and Ackley over whether they expected Town Assessor Tuck Birdsall to handle all the work assessing town properties for $11,000 per year when Warrensburg’s and Johnsburg’s sole assessors were being paid $38,000 to $40,000.

But Seaman said that the town was in “extreme financial stress” and had to make cuts, based on the town financial data she’d seen indicating that the town’s unexpended funds had declined by about $300,000 from last year, leaving a reserve of only $150,000 or so.

George soon learned of a better opportunity in New York, and moved to Long Island, sending for his wife, Ilse, whom he had married in Germany in 1957, and their daughter, Ulrike (Rikki).

After working in several delicatessens, George and Ilse saved enough money to buy their own shop in Bellmore, Long Island, which they owned until 1972, when they decided to purchase the Black Mountain Ski Lodge and move to the Adirondacks.

George and Ilse became well known in North Creek for their strong work ethic and warm hospitality. After a long day working in the motel and restaurant, George and Ilse would often relax with favored guests over

ing, map and compass skills, outdoor cooking, wildlife identification, hiking and more! If you are a teen between the ages of 12-19 and love the outdoors, then come and see what the 4-H Adirondack Guides program is all about.

For many years, George was the Burgermeister (honorary mayor) at the Oktoberfest at Gore Mountain, and travelers on Peaceful Valley Road could expect to see George at twilight every day walking his German shepherd. They successfully operated the ski lodge, the largest motel in northern Warren County, for 33 years.

In 2005, they sold the motel and moved to Virginia to be near their daughter.

South in the Northway: Observations on life in the Adirondacks

Plunging into the New Year The New Year always seems to be an occasion for people to jump into really cold water,

By Christopher South and the Adirondacks • COLUMNIST • is no exception.

I have covered a few polar bear plunges on the Jersey shore and the winter weather can range from frozen tundra-like to near balmy.

Ocean City, N.J., has its plunge on New Year’s Day and Sea Isle City, N.J., always holds its polar bear plunge on the Saturday of Presidents’ Day Weekend. Some of the participants treat the morning of plunge day like it was New Year’s Eve. On one particularly bitter plunge day, I saw the same group of revelers several times, and one guy was muttering the same curse word every time I saw him.

I have tried to interview people who had just plunged on a frigid, frigid day - tough to do as they tried to get their wet bodies into dry clothes while losing the feeling in their frozen feet. I also recall times when people would run in and out of the ocean, splashing and playing around.

On New Year’s Day, I had the opportunity to visit Lake George. Not to plunge, of course: I had to take some photos for the newspaper.

The weather has been very cold and snowy leading up to the Lake George Polar Plunge, which is being celebrated by ice fishermen and snowmobilers, but which raises the bar for polar bear plunging. It was so cold, the local fire department had to no only be on duty for any cold weather injuries, but they had to break the ice three times before the event.

For my part, I slipped and fell on a snowy slope only my way to the plunging area. That was as close to a plunge as I would get.

Later, I heard someone advise a fellow plunger who had some out of the water not to stand in the snow.

I would bet money the snow was not colder than the sand next to it.

I did worry about being swept into Lake George by the mass of polar plungers. Interestingly, the TV news reported that more than 1,000 people took the plunge, whereas the organizer told be the number of registrants was less than 400.

That’s what happens when you report based on last year’s figures.

I might not be the most sure-footed reporter, but I do know to call the organizers and get numbers for the event. ■

» Pantry Cont. from pg. 1

“We don’t ask people to prove they are poor enough,” Carr said.

Following the guidelines, the food pantry will provide three days worth of food for each person in the household per visit.

Carr said NCM asks people to limit visits to twice per month, saying if there is a need for more, they would like them to speak with a caseworker to see if there are other programs that night be more useful to them.

The fi rst day for the Pottersville Food Pantry was not without a glitch. A freezer chest they intended to use was not working.

Carr said they were able to put some frozen items in the freezers of two small refrigerators.

The pantry, she said, would not turn down the donation of a working chest-type freezer.

The median household income for Pottersville was $14,280 in 2017, which is 73 percent lower than the national average, according to the American Community Survey. ■

NCM was able to set up its food pantry in space donated by the All Brand Redemption Center on state Route 9 at Valley Farm Road.

They did so with more than $2,000 raised by the SonRise Lutheran Church congregation with the assistance of their host congregation - Christ Church Episcopal.

The location is being set up following the Regional Food Bank system.

Food items are stacked on shelves according to type, and clients are able to walk through and select food with the assistance of a volunteer.

“We are a client choice pantry,” Carr said.

“The volunteer escorts them, but they (the clients) know what they need.”

Carr said volunteers will register clients when they come in the first time, and ask them to sign in on subsequent visits. The pantry will take information about the household, but there is no income verification process.

Angie Mead named South Adirondack Realtor of the Year Local came back after college to enter real estate market

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

CHESTERTOWN | Angie Mead graduated college and took a trip around the country, which landed her right back where she started.

Her latest move, however has been up, as Mead was recently named the Realtor of the Year for the Southern Adirondack Realtors.

“As one of the top selling agents at Gallo, I’m very proud of her involvement and contributions to realtors, and for this achievement as well,” said Cindy Mead, Angie’s mother and broker at Gallo Realty in Chestertown.

In a phone interview on Dec. 19, Angie Mead said she started working in real estate in 2004.

“Basically I started working right out of college,” she said.

Mead, 35, graduated from Siena College in Loudonsville, where she majored in business. She and her twin sister, Erin, traveled across the country for two months, until she ran out of money.

“Then my mom said, ‘Why not get a realtors license?’” Mead said.

Mead took a course for her real estate license and ended up doing something she never thought she would do - making a home where she grew up.

“I never thought I would move home,” she said.

Mead was awarded for not only her work in the Southern Adirondack Realtors region, which includes Warren and Washington counties, southern Essex County and the northern portion of Saratoga County.

The realtors recognized Mead, in part, for her involvement in association, and in the industry, particularly for her work with the Realtors Public Action Committee (RPAC).

“I do work through RPAC. We do a lot of behind the scenes things, upholding the value of property in the area, home ownership; I work closely with the Legislative Affairs Committee of Southern Adirondack Realtors,” Mead said.

Mead said she enjoys working in the political arena, working with the Legislative Affairs Committee, and staying in contact with industry lobbyists, who she said fight for property rights, home ownership rights, and recently, opposed the president’s tax bill.

“We support the continuation of writing

Forest farms

I attended the Farm Bureau meeting in Westport the other night.

Discussions varied from Albany politics to manure, (at times, very similar) all the way up the food chain including,

By Richard Redman how to get interested new members.

• COLUMNIST • The Essex County Farm Bureau membership drive is on and we are always looking to add new members to our roster.

New members bring new ideas, and thoughts, especially those from the young farmers who are just starting to break ground in agriculture.

What are your concerns? Is it finding markets, labor issues or storage for products? What do you need to help keep you profitable?

Your local county Farm Bureau covers the gauntlet, the list includes: traditional dairy farming and cropping,

Angie Mead, shown at the Realtor of the Year is shown with a picture of her at opening day at the Saratoga Racetrack. Mead is an associate-broker at Gallo Real Estate in Chestertown, where she has worked since 2004.

Photo provided off mortgage interest and preserving the STAR exemption so folks can get a break on school taxes,” Mead said.

Mead, is one of 10 sales agents at Gallo Realty, and according to her mother is one of the top sellers at Gallo.

Asked about her award, Mead said she

now has “a pretty swanky piece of hardware” sitting on her desk, but the significance is more than a diamond-shaped glass trophy.

“It’s a huge honor, it really is. There are a lot of other realtors in our organization who are deserving of this award. And it is voted on by your peers, which makes it quite an honor,” she said. ■

Conservation Conversations hay and pasture production, grains, organic dairies and cheese making, organic or naturally grown vegetables, hops, apples, eggs and meats, labor problems, wages, wildlife, trespassers, manure, animal welfare, environmental and neighbor issues.

Everything is on the table to discuss and hopefully solve if it’s your problem.

Personally, I would like to see more involvement from the forestry community.

Forests are croplands that grow long term plants, it’s that simple. Whether you plant the trees or you manage your naturally grown forest, you are involved with growing and managing a crop for products. How intensively you manage determines the quantity and quality of the product.

Timber products could be logs or wood chips for pulp for either International Paper in Ticonderoga, or Finch Pruyn in Glens Falls. Quality trees could be harvested for veneer, or sawed out for boards and

other lumber products. Sugar maples are managed for maple sap production, giving you syrup for those cold morning pancakes.

Poor trees are harvested for firewood, providing warmth to warm the bones on a cold day, after a “hard day’s night, working like a dog!”

Forest farms provide a crop of wood, to be utilized in many shapes and forms. Forest owners have many of the same problems that plowed ground farmers have.

Farm Bureau can help you.

Food and fiber comes from the earth, so if you are involved with working the land, whether with a tractor and plow share, a sheep or cow’s hooves or a chainsaw and skidder we would like to have you join us.

Your local, county run Farm Bureau wants to hear what you have to say!

Turning back the pages SITTING BY THE FIRE

These are modern times. I do not have to hope I chopped enough wood to keep warm on these frigid winter days and nights as my grandfather did — instead, I am destined to remember acute financial pain suffered while dealing with my adversary, the modern day propane dealer.

I have lived on Milton Avenue for 14 years, overlooking the mighty Schroon River as it rolls past my backyard to join the Hudson River on its way to New York City and the Atlantic Ocean.

On this cold January day, I no longer see rushing waves but instead I view a white frozen field of solid ice. From one shore to another are carved little foot paths that my army of resident squirrels have carved out to playfully skip from one shore to another.

I particularly like to watch one little wretch as he gleefully jumps in the air and claps his back feet together and kicks snow into the face of his buddy behind him. He hasn’t any worry about winter rations, as he has been collecting non-stop all summer long, and now it’s play time.

COLD DAYS, ANCIENT TIMES REMEMBERED

Looking out at the cold January wasteland makes me wonder what it must have been like in the days before present day human beings acquired modern inventions to protect them from cruel old Mother Nature’s wrath.

What must it have been like in 1786 when land speculator William Bond, 44, arrived here to view his land grant in Hyde Township that he had acquired in 1784 in New York City from merchant Jacob Watson for “375 pounds”?

His land was thought to have been just a couple of blocks from my house over at Echo Lake. This ten acre lake was named “Bond’s Pond” for many years before some short sighted official who had no interest nor liking for history changed it. Bond was said to have been camped upon the pond’s shore.

According to present day historian Steve Parisi, Hyde Township was owned by Edward Jessup and 39 other persons who had acquired the patent from George III, King of Great Britain, dated Sept. 10, 1774.

I have always thought of William Bond as a lone figure.

I pictured him sitting alone by a campfire by the lake with his horses and covered wagon, in the middle of the great Adirondack wilderness with wolves howling in the distance. It was believed that even Indians did not camp in the Adirondacks because winters were so cold here.

Bond is credited with being Warrensburg’s very first settler.

STORY PROVED TO BE NOT SO

I am reminded of the story of Adam and Eve — human beings who, according to the book of Genesis, were created by God to live in the Garden of Eden — the very first people on the planet Earth. They had three children and their eldest son, Cain, murdered his brother herdsman Abel, and was sentenced by God to a nomadic life and to roam the Earth. But in the story’s small print it is believed that he journeyed away to a far-off land and found a wife for himself.

How could this be so? Where did these far away people come from? The planet Mars?

In the small print about William Bond it is found that he had a wife, Jane, and 10 children; Elizabeth, Ann, Sarah, Eliza, Margaret, William, James, Joseph, Isaac and Samuel Bond. They obviously must have been sitting there by that campfire with their father. The family later moved to Chestertown where I read that William had acquired an additional land grant which he had tucked away in his back pocket.

PRESTIGIOUS FAMILY

In 1809 William Bond’s daughter Ann married Jesse Tripp, the son of Peleg and Mary Sammis Tripp, early settlers on land north of the Warrensburgh area. They had a son, James I. Tripp, who in 1846 became much involved with Chestertown’s government.

James’ grandfather Peleg Tripp was born in 1755 in Rhode Island and was one of the very first settlers in Chestertown. Tripp Lake there today is named for him. Peleg died in 1838.

VANISHED FROM HISTORY

What ever became of William Bond? The name of William Bond is listed among the families in part of Hyde Township in 1832 in the South Gore, but this is

very vague. Is this the same Bond? Former Warrensburg historian, the late Mabel Tucker, and I used to sit by the fire and speculate about what ever happened to the man after he disappeared from Chestertown history and seemingly dissolved into the twilight zone.

Could it have been a UFO abduction? We never figured it out! History simply closed the book on this man.

BOOM TOWN

William Bond was hardly on the trail north (it wasn’t called “Northway” in those days) when this small area near the confluence of the Schroon River began to fill up like a bottle of home brew.

Hot on Bond’s heels came Joseph Hutchinson, Joseph Woodward, Gideon and Stokes Potter and Joseph Hatch in 1787. Josiah Woodward came from Connecticut in 1787 and brought his family with him. They lived on the land that is today behind the post office. Kitchel Bishop arrived in or about 1804. He was in the State Senate from 1812 to 1815. Merchant Pelatiah Richards came here at the turn of the century. He was supervisor in 1830 and again in 1838. The Richards Library was much later a gift to the town by this Richards family.

WARRENSBURGH GETS ITS NAME

Tavern keeper James Warren came to town in 1804.

Before that time the town was called by several names, but none of them stuck. Warren was nothing out of the ordinary, much more prominent men came here before him.

Born in 1768, he married a girl from this area named Malinda Beach and they had a son, 10 year old Nelson Warren.

James Warren drowned in the West River (Hudson River) near Thurman in 1811 and the town was named Warrensburgh in 1813. Did the name come from James Warren or General Joseph Warren, the hero of Bunker Hill, for which Warren County is named? The jury is still out and historians have been debating upon this question for 200 years. I take a safe guess that it was named for both of them. ■ -Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal/ Sun correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap. rr.com or 623-2210.

Horicon cemeteries closed to traffic safety measure Slippery slopes are a threat in winter

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

HORICON | At December’s Horicon Town Board meeting, Councilwoman Silvia Smith responded to some complaints about the town’s seven cemeteries being closed in the winter.

Smith said the cemeteries have had locked gates after last year when someone plowed inside a cemetery and damaged some grave sites.

“We have had some complaints that (the cemeteries) are closed, but they are not,” Smith said.

When contacted after the meeting, supervisor Matt Simpson said the cemeteries were closed to vehicular traffic.

“We close the cemeteries in the winter

because they are on slopes,” he said.

OTHER BUSINESS

The board set a public hearing for a septic variance application for Dwyer at 103 Palisades Rd. Zach Monroe from Winchip Engineering presented the application for replacing a failed septic system with a new Elgin GSF module septic system.

Councilman Robert Olson said the town is still looking for interested town residents to sit on the Zoning Board of Adjustment as alternate members.

“We had two possible candidates for the Zoning Board alternate members - both of them have evaporated,” he said.

Olson also raised the issue of hanging banners on the bridge at the lower dam on Mill Pond.

Over the previous 10 years, the town had invited non-profit and civic organizations to hang banners at the bridge. He said he was

concerned about prohibiting banners advertising events, especially when what he called the town’s “signature event,” the Winter Carnival, was coming up on Feb. 24.

“Last year, it brought in over half a million dollars, and that’s the ideal place to advertise,” Olson said.

Smith said the board had discussed the matter in back in July and the board agreed the town would not allow banners on the walkway after receiving complaints about the banners blocking people’s view of the fountain in Mill Pond. She said it was also a safety issue to have people reading a banner where the road curves.

The decision was made to promote town events on social media.

Olson said the Zoning Board would meet this month and discuss people putting travel trailers on lots as a summer camp. The issue was raised this fall by the town zoning ad-

ministrator, Jim Steen.

The board tabled a resolution authorizing participation in the Warren County Work Experience Program.

Simpson said the county pays the wages for the workers enrolled in the program, and the towns provide the work and supervise. He said there are certain stipulations for the program, such program workers cannot be used to replace laid-off or striking workers. Olson asked to table the resolution for more information.

The board also declined to support a resolution supporting Warren County Health Services efforts to raise the minimum age for purchasing tobacco to 21.

“If a person is 18, they should be able to make the choice. That is not government’s position - to tell people not to smoke,” he said.

“If a person at 18 can go put his life on the line, you may as well let him smoke,” Councilman Frank Hill said. ■

Killing black flies not yet a dead issue in Horicon Town might opt to treat flies in-house

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

HORICON | The issue of treating for black flies in the Horicon area this spring is not a dead issue.

Brant Lake resident Poul Carstensen raised the issue at the Dec. 21 Horicon Town Board meeting after learning the town board decided not to fund the BTI treatment provided by Bioconservation, Inc. The board voted in October 3-2 against paying for the treatment, which would cost the town nearly $60,000 over three years.

“I just started doing research on my own,” Carstensen said during a phone interview this week. “I just called up north to see what other towns were doing. I was just wondering if there was enough information to go by.”

The neighboring Town of Chester approved paying $15,000

per year for BTI treatment, which is a bacteria that the black fly larvae after they ingest it.

Carstensen said North Elba in Essex County pays about $30,000, of which $12,000 was the cost of the treatment materials alone.

Horicon Supervisor Matt Simpson said this week he had done some research to find out how many streams, which are black fly breeding areas, were in the Town of Horicon.

Simpson reached out to the Warren County Soil and Water Conservation District and found that information is on file.

“That’s one of the beauties of the GIS,” Simpson said, referring to the geographic information system.

He said learning how many streams are in the town and where they are located if the fist step in researching the feasibility of the town treating black flies on its own, and whether or not it makes sense to do it alone.

“We have to know that before come up with a cost. We have to research the actual scope of work,” Simpson said.

Councilman Frank Hill said he didn’t support paying for Bioconservation, Inc., to do the BTI treatment because no

one could verify that the town was actually receiving the treatment it was paying for.

TOWN OKAYS TRUCK PURCHASE

The town board voted to authorize the purchase of a large plow struck with a wing plow, nose plow, and sander for the cost of $200,073.

The board stopped short of purchasing a new live edge plow blade at the moment. Superintendent of Highways Darion Granger said regardless of whether or not the plow blade was part of the order, he would like to have the truck put on order now.

Hill said the town had just put $1,800 into a one-ton truck it plans to keep for at least another year. Simpson said the town is considering purchasing a live edge plow for another, existing truck.

Simpson said the Highway Department would retire an older truck, but the town might keep the truck as a spare, saying when the town sells surplus equipment it only gets “cents on the dollar.”

“The truck still has usable life in it, and there is nothing worse than getting a major snowstorm and your main truck breaks down without a backup,” Simpson said. ■

Undefeated Burghers to host state qualifier wrestling tourney

By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

WARRENSBURG | The WarrensburgBolton wrestlers tasted considerable success over the past three weeks as they continued their campaign towards the state team and individual tournaments.

As of Jan. 8, the Burghers were 2-0 in the Adirondack League, 14-0 overall and ranked No. 7 in New York State.

On Jan. 7, the Burghers learned they were chosen to host the New York State Team Tournament Section II qualifier meet on Tuesday Jan. 16.

The first round at 6 p.m. features the No.

1 ranked Burghers versus No. 4 CobleskillRichmond, and No. 2 Watervliet versus No. 3 Hadley-Luzerne/Lake George. The Section II team championship finals follow at approximately 7:30 p.m.

A tournament last weekend demonstrated the Burghers’ potential when 21 teams from central and northern New York, western Massachusetts and Vermont competed in the Saratoga High School Invitational — and Warrensburg-Bolton took fourth place.

Only six-and-a-half points out of first place, the Burghers beat teams from 17 schools, many of which have far-larger enrollment.

Shenendehowa won the tournament with 155 and 1/2 points.

Warrensburg-Bolton earned 22 & 1/2 more points than sixth place winner Ballston Spa, ranked 9th in the state among large schools.

Queensbury placed seventh with 121 points; and the Hadley-Luzerne/Lake George Warriors took eighth with 100 & 1/2 points.

Winning championships in their weight classes for the Burghers were Jack Binder at 200 pounds and Gary Hill at 285 pounds.

In the finals, Binder won a 3-2 decision over Brandon Bolster of Whitehall-Fort Ann; and Hill pinned Will Mitcham of HadleyLuzerne/Lake George in 3:57. Eight other Burghers placed.

Earning third place for the Burghers were Tanner McKenna at 99 pounds, Dylan Winchell with a 6-0 decision over Griffin Biviano of

Saratoga at 106 pounds.

Burghers Hunter McKenna, Greg Shambo and Nolan McNeill took fourth place. Achieving fifth place were Trevor Winchell at 132 pounds, Zack Davis at 138 pounds, and Dan Monthony at 160 pounds.

Logan Duers won third place for the Warriors at 145 pounds by pinning Hunter McKenna in 1:45. Duers’ teammate Cody York took second place at 160 pounds in a close finals match against a Niskayuna opponent. Warrior Rich Conte also won second place, after a tough battle at 170 pounds against a Ballston Spa foe. ■ To read the full story online, visit suncommunitynews.com

Bolton’s ultra-young basketball squad is experiencing early-season success

By Thom Randall STA FF W RITER

BOLTON LANDING | Bolton High School’s entire freshman class is comprised of 11 boys and four girls, and three of these four girls not only play on Bolton’s basketball team, but they’re starters for the squad.

These 9th graders, along with five teammates, have been taking on all challengers so far this season demonstrating hot shooting, smooth teamwork and tenacious defense.

Through the last month, they’ve been thrilling fans and stunning opponents, remaining undefeated as of Dec. 20 .

They’re 5-0 in the Mountain & Valley Athletic Conference and 7-0 overall for 2017-18.

Coach Luke Schweickert said he’s pleased about the team’s dedication to the sport and their accomplishments to date.

“The kids are off to a good start,” he said, noting that his three freshmen — Chelsea Speranza, Maria Baker and Katelyn VanAuken — have remarkable skills despite their youth.

“Our three 9th graders have definitely earned their spots on the team,” he said, noting that they’ve played basketball together since third grade.

All three played last year as eighth graders, and the latter two were starters. All three, along with senior Maddie Pratt, were key players on the soccer team that last year fought all the way to the state finals.

In basketball this year, forward VanAuken is averaging 13 points per game, not far behind Pratt, who is averaging 17.6 points.

Maria Baker, a tough guard and good ball handler who distributes the ball well, is averaging 9 points per game.

Chelsea Speranza, athletic and aggressive on defense, is averaging 5.5 steals per game.

The teams elder members — seniors Pratt and Ashley Connery, along with juniors Molly Showers and Kiara Mantz and sophomore Alysha McGarr— have worked well with their younger counterparts.

Pratt, awarded as the 2016-17 MVAC South Most Valuable Player and anchor of this year’s team, mentors the younger players as she hones her own skills.

“Maddie is a very solid, selfless player,” Schweickert said.

Classmate Ashley Connery, who was out all last year due to a torn ACL, has returned and is also providing considerable leadership, coach Schweickert said.

“Ashley is not only a really good defensive player, but she’s a great leader,” he said, noting that Connery — averaging 8 rebounds this year — routinely drives her Honda around town picking up her teammates to bring them to practice.

They are joined by juniors Molly Showers and Kiara Mantz, plus sophomore Alysha McGarr.

“Molly brings a lot of energy to the team coming off the bench — Kiara is a strong rebounder — and Alysha is doing well in her first year playing basketball,” Schweickert said.

The squad’s most recent game was against Indian Lake/ Long Lake, which going into the matchup was unbeaten.

Bolton defeated them 62-30.

VanAuken was high scorer with 18 points and Pratt scored

15. Speranza had 14 points and a crowd-thrilling 10 steals.

Baker tallied 5 points and 8 assists. Connery grabbed 8 rebounds and had four assists. Mantz and Connery scored 4 points each, and McGarr scored 2.

On Dec. 15, Bolton blew away Wells 67-17. Connery sank six three-pointers in seven attempts from behind the arc, earning the status of high scorer with 22 points.

Van Auken and Pratt scored 14 points apiece, and Baker netted 13. Speranza played strong defense in this conference game, Schweickert said.

A week earlier, all the players present that night scored as Bolton rolled over Minerva-Newcomb 73-16.

Leading the team was VanAuken with 16 points; followed

by Pratt with 12; McGarr and Showers with 10 each; and Baker, Speranza and Mantz with 8 apiece. McGarr tallied 10 rebounds.

On Dec. 5, Bolton faced tough Schroon Lake in a hardfought MVAC game, and won 44-36 as Maddie Pratt showed why she was conference MVP last year, pouring in 22 points accompanied by 13 rebounds. All the Bolton players contributed to the effort, as Pratt was joined by VanAuken scoring 11, and Connery, 9.

Schweickert said that both Schroon Lake and Crown point are formidable opponents. Bolton was scheduled to meet up with Crown Point on Thursday Dec. 21. He said that he’s expecting his young squad to play hard and smart “against very skilled juniors and seniors” on the Panthers’ squad.

Next up for Bolton is an away game against Johnsburg Thursday January 4. ■

By Christopher South STA FF W RITER

BRANT LAKE | The YMCA’s Adirondack Center is drawing children from three school districts to take part in its Y-Achievers program, with some students coming from as far as Warrensburg.

Adirondack Center director Tammy LaGuerre and Brian Bearer, the CEO of the Family YMCA of the Glens Falls Area, briefed Horicon officials last week on activities and programs at the local branch.

The Y-Achievers program has 30 kids coming from North Warren, Minerva and Warrensburg.

“Warrensburg is sending a bus,” LaGuerre said.

The Y-Achievers program features what the program calls the “Five Pillars of Achievers,” which includes: academics, positive identity,

The YMCA Adirondack Center in Brant Lake is planning on a number of new activities and programs for 2018, including a yoga class, and an in-school program for elementary school children. The Adirondack Center is located at 148 Tannery Road, Brant Lake.

File Photo life skills, positive relationships, and college knowledge, the latter of which focuses on the college application process.

“Older kids in the program become junior

counselors,” LaGuerre said.

The YMCA features a Teen Leaders Club for kids in grades 8-12 for kids interested in becoming leaders.

In 2017, the group organized a toy drive for North Country Ministry and sold birch bark candle holders, raising $300 for their effort.

The group has also worked in collaboration with the local library, hosting the Friends of Horicon Library’s annual Christmas in Brant Lake event.

“We’re getting positive feedback from local businesses, too,” LaGuerre said.

LaGuerre highlighted a number of winter events for the Horicon Town Board, including family movie night, and a yoga class that will be in place in January. The center is hoping to start a club for elementary kids at the schools.

“We continue to work on character development in all our programs,” LaGuerre said.

Bearer said the YMCA was about $5,000 away from its goal of $100,000, which included $50,000 in matching funds from two private donors: the Himoff family and the Stewart’s/Dake family.

The Adirondack Center is located in the former Suzy Q’s Restaurant, which was donated to the YMCA by the Himoff family. ■
