Warrensburg community observes Memorial Day events
By Ryan Edwards
ryan@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ Spectators lined the sidewalks on Elm and Hudson Streets as the annual Memorial Day parade marched its way from the firehouse to the cemetery to pay tribute to American service men and women who fell in various wars and conflicts over the last 240 years. The procession included Veterans of Foreign Wars post 4821 and American Legion post 446, with their respective color guards and ladiesÕ auxiliaries, formally garbed firemen and emergency services personnel, the Warrensburg High School Band and flag-twirlers and a scattering of young baseball players from various Warrensburg teams. Adorning the overcast morning sky were the contrails of John Alexander’s 1942 Fairchild PT23Ñ a World War II trainer planeÑ which soared over the procession, circled the cemetery, and was gone. Both the parade and the spectators crossed the cemetery gates as one, where they spread into a semicircle around the war monument which lists the names of WarrensburgÕ s fallen soldiers. There Legion Adjutant Gene Pierce welcomed the observers and introduced Father Thomas Pettigrew of the Holy Cross Episcopal Church

on Main Street, who led the crowd in a prayer honoring and blessing the fallen and the families they left behind. Pierce informed his audience that Warrensburg has lost a total of 28 of its citizens in the line of duty.
Ò WeÕ re gathered here today to honor the names that are carved in this stone, and also the names carved in stones and the men and women buried in cemeteries all over the United States and in Europe and in the Far East,Ó he said. Ò These men here on this stone were young menÑ they didnÕ t go to college, a lot of them didnÕ t have families, and a lot of them died way too young.Ó He went on to explain that it is through their sacrifice that Americans obtained and continue to maintain the freedoms we enjoy today. Ò Whether or not you believe in the wars or support the wars, you have to support the troops,Ó he continued. Ò These men and women
go off and they fight for you and for me, but most of all, they fight for the man and the woman next to them. ItÕ s not all about God and country, the United States and apple pie, when youÕ re there, you’re fighting for your brother and sister that youÕ re with.Ó John McCraeÕ s poem Ò In Flanders FieldsÓ was read by Warrensburg high School student and American Legion Girls Stater Jessica Benoit, followed by a reading of R.W. LillardÕ s reply poem Ò AmericaÕ s Answer,Ó read by American Legion Boys Stater Tyler Toolan, also a Warrensburg High School student. Warrensburg alum Megan Pierce followed up the poems with a spirited reading of the Gettysburg Address. Following these performances, Phil Baker from the Warrensburg V.F.W. read the Ò honor rollÓ of soldiers whose names are incised on the monument, followed by a list of veterans who have died since last VeteranÕ s day read by Former American Legion Post 446 Commander Carson Parker. A firing squad then commenced the customary rifle salute to honor the dead, firing three volleys into the sky above the cemeteryÑ the shots reverberating throughout the grounds as a haunting rendition of Taps began to sound in the distance. Warrensburg High School music and drama teacher James Corriveau closed out the ceremony with thundering renditions of both the National Anthem and Ò America the Beautiful,Ó accompanied by the Warrensburg High School Band. A reception was held after the ceremony at the American Legion Post on River St., which was open to the public.

Accomplished college painter returns to W’burg art class By Ryan Edwards
piece,Ó she said. After she finished discussing her own work, Baer “lightly critiquedÓ the studentsÕ in-progress pieces, giving tips and highlighting what she believed to be the most successful aspects. She stressed to the students the importance of mastering the basics of drawing and painting should they decide to continue in her footsteps and pursue a career in graphic design. Ò All digital art needs a strong traditional foundation,Ó she said. Ò Photoshop canÕ t create a beautiful digital painting without the user having drawing skills and knowledge on how to use value and color harmoniously.Ó Before she left, Baer also offered a brief preview of what to expect in a college art programÑ both good and bad. Ò It was funny to see some of the studentsÕ facial expressions when I told them I spend six to eight hours at a time in the studio working on my projects,Ó she said. Ò I reminded them that regardless of their choice of study, they should be able to spend hours at a time increasing their knowledge and skill.Ó Sullivan said that the guest-lecture was a positive experience for his students, whom he hopes will go on to apply what they learned in college and in life.
ryan@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ Warrensburg High School art teacher Patrick Sullivan invited a former student back to his classroom earlier this month for a guest-lecture in his drawing and painting class. Maigan Baer, currently a senior in SUNY PlattsburghÕ s Bachelor of Fine Arts program with a concentration in graphic design and a minor in marketing, stopped by her alma mater to talk art, college, careers and critique student work. Sullivan said he invited Baer to speak to his students not only for her artistic ability, but also in the hope that their mutual message would carry a deeper resonance when delivered by a recent WCS graduate and college art student. Ò She just has a really neat perspective on things,Ó Sullivan said. Ò She really knows how to communicate visually. Anywhere I submitted her work, it got in.Ó Baer transferred to SUNY Platssburgh from SUNY Adirondack, where she worked as a graphics and photography lab assistant while earning an associateÕ s degree in media arts. She also won an award at SUNY Adirondack for Academic Excellence in Media Arts Overall for 2014, as well as a “best in show” at the school’s 2014 art exhibition for a piece that went on to win the same honor at the SUNY-wide exhibition and is now one of 50 displayed in the student collection at the New York State museum in Albany. She will find out at a June 3 reception whether or not she won a final “best in show” or an honorable mention. Sullivan and Baer have stayed in contact since she graduated in 2012, and Baer credits her former teacher for helping her achieve these accolades and begin to develop her artistic identity. Ò He is one of my biggest supporters and has helped me to get to where I am today,Ó she said. Upon her return to Warrensburg for summer vacation, Sullivan asked Baer to come and speak to his classÑ an invitation which she gladly accepted, she said.

She crafted her lecture around a number of her own paintings, using them as a collective example to discuss the basics of color, value and form and how these and other elements interweave to create a complete work of visual art.

W’burg Bike Rally, larger than ever, begins this weekend By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ The annual Warrensburg Bike Rally Ñ which has flourished on the coattails of the renowned Americade touring motorcycle rally in Lake George Ñ is bigger than ever for 2015, its founder said this week. Known as one of two local “renegade” rallies capitalizing on the success of colossal Americade, Warrensburg Bike Rally Ñ located on the Warren County Fairgrounds on Schroon River Road Ñ is set for Saturday May 30 through Saturday June 6. The Warrensburg rally is observing its 15th anniversary this year, and it has about one-third more vendors than last year, founder Ed Zibro said. Ò Our rally is bigger and better, year after year,Ó he said. Ò People love the area Ñ they really enjoy all the activities and attractions in the region.Ó The array of vendors at the rally include entrepreneurs who will apply custom pin-stripes to motorcycles or change motor oil right on the spot, and another who will create jewelry as the public observes. As always, a wide array of motorcycle accessories and clothing, leather goods, two-wheeled collectibles, chrome tires and

paraphernalia will all be available for sale. Motorcycle trailers and Ò toy haulersÓ will also be available for examination and purchase, Zibro said. Unique handcrafted goods are featured at the Warrensburg rally, which is welcoming back Ô Badger BobÕ Huddleson, who creates eye-catching motorcycle helmets festooned with pelts, furs and animal heads. One of HuddlesonÕ s creations is owned by rock star Steven Tyler. New for 2015 at Warrensburg rally will be performances by Elvis tribute artist Joe Ramsey, who will be onstage from noon to 4 p.m. each day. Live country & western music is also slated, and carnival-style food is to be available. Also new this year is a partnership with Lake George Steamboat Co., which is offering discount cruises on Tuesday June 2 and Wednesday June 3 . There is also a chicken barbecue cruise planned for Thursday and Friday Ñ tickets are available on the fairgrounds. As in prior years, the Warrensburg Bike Rally features no admission charge, free parking, good socializing — and real bathrooms, Zibro said. Ò We welcome everyone to attend, enjoy meeting friends old and new, and see what we have to offer,” Zibro said, noting that the fairgrounds are located about 1.5 miles northeast of state Rte. 9.
Adirondack Bike Rally set for uptown Warrensburg area By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ Motorcyclists will be welcomed to uptown Warrensburg this week, as Adirondack Bike Rally will be drawing a spillover crowd from the tens of thousands of bikers attending Americade touring motorcycle rally in Lake George. Warrensburg native Rob Griffin — proprietor of Griffin & Sons auto repair and RobÕ s Motorsports Ñ is hosting the Warrensburg rally on land he bought in December just north of his enterprises. Griffin’s rally will be occurring simultaneously with Ed ZibroÕ s Warrensburg Bike Rally, which was held downtown until four years ago, when it moved out of the hamlet to the Warren County Fairgrounds. Griffin said his rally was prompted by popular demand. Ò Most of the businesses in town wanted a bike rally back on Main Street,Ó he said. Ò The fairgrounds site is out of the way and our town’s businesses don’t really benefit from it. I’m trying to attract visitors to Warrensburg busineses.Ó Griffin’s rally features motorcycle accessories and services, including LED lights, chrome, vents and biker apparel. One ven-
dor, Griffin said, is a nationally known pin-striping and mural artisan who will apply his handiwork on-site to visitorsÕ motorcycles. Adirondack Bike Rally, as itÕ s called in an online posting, is an outgrowth of Warrensburg Bike Week, a volunteer initiative to boost local businesses launched at least 15 years ago by Don Bagwell, who will be helping Griffin with the new venture. All the Warrensburg motorcycle events were prompted by the success of Americade, which has for 33 years has annually attracted as many as 25,000 motorcyclists to neighboring Lake George during the first week in June. Griffin said it wasn’t his intent to compete with the other rallies, he was merely trying to keep some of the revenue in local businesses. “Out town always hosts an overflow of bikers from Lake George, and weÕ re just trying to accommodate them,Ó he said. AT RIGHT: Motorcyclists attending a prior year’s bike rally in Warrensburg socialize on northern Main Street, just north of where Rob Griffin’s new Adirondack Bike Rally will be held from Friday May 29 through Sunday June 7.

Adk Diversity Advisory Council holds LGBT sensitivity workshop By Ryan Edwards
ryan@denpubs.com TUPPER LAKE Ñ Brian McNaught, dubbed the Ò godfather of gay rights sensitivity trainingÓ by the New York Times, looked out at a crowd of 45 guests at the Wild Center on Saturday, May 16, and answered the question scrawled across their faces: Ô Why aren’t all the seats filled?’ Ò Well, this is the challenge,Ó he said. Ò How do we create a world in which everyone feels comfortable acknowledging not only who they are, but who they love?” McNaught was chosen to lead a training workshop called Ò Anyone can be an AllyÓ at the Wild CenterÑ which was open to the publicÑ designed to assist participants in providing a more welcoming environment for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people both living in and visiting the Adirondack Park. The workshop was offered by the Adirondack Diversity Advisory Council (ADAC), which was born as a result of a diversity symposium titled Ò Towards a More Diverse Adirondacks,Ó held in Newcomb in August 2014. Ò Sometimes we can be seen as not having a lot of diversity in the Adirondacks, so we wanted to make sure, as an anchor organization, that our doors are open, and that they are really, truly open,Ó said Stephanie Ratcliffe, executive director of the Wild Center. McNaught is considered the worldÕ s leading corporate diversity consultant dealing with LGBT issues in the workplace, Ratcliffe said. Since 1974, McNaught has addressed hundreds of professional and university audiences, and trained thousands of corporate executives throughout North America, Europe, and Asia, including those at the National Security Agency, Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, Ford, AT&T and Lehman Brothers. During his four decades in the field, he has produced or appeared in six critically-acclaimed educational videos, authored six books, hosted a Provincetown television program, and written a syndicated column in the gay press for 12 years. Ò It is just wonderful to be in training with himÑ he just has everyone feel relaxed about discussing things openly and honestly. He answered any questions anybody could ask,Ó Ratcliffe said.
“Sing your song”
Right from the beginning, McNaught drew from his experiences to provide a comfortable atmosphere through which he

could instruct his audience to create a culture of acceptance within the blue line. Ò When I was 26 years old I drank a bottle of turpentine,Ò he told them, Ò and as a result of that, I said on the emergency room table as I cried, Ô IÕ m never again going to live my life based on peopleÕ s images or expectations of me. IÕ m going to be Brian.Õ Ó McNaught suggested that, like birds, all humans have a unique song, and, if his audience aspires to create a culture that welcomes all people, they should learn to identify those songs and work to develop a harmony with those whose notes seem alien to them. In their quest to create a welcoming atmosphere for ethnic, religious and sexual minorities, McNaught suggested that they ask themselves, Ò Can that person sing their song in the Adirondacks? Are we ready for us to identify the unique songs of people who are already here, and people we hope will come?” If not, McNaught asserted, LGBT visitors will not return, and, whatÕ s more, through word of mouth the area could be added to the blacklist of places people in that community avoid for fear of discrimination or discomfort. The increasing number of young graduates who do not return to the region because of a lack of economic viability begins with
the playing of welcoming music, McNaught suggested. McNaught asked audience members to classify how welcoming the place where they live and work is to people who identify as LGBT based on a four-category scale: very welcoming, somewhat welcoming, somewhat unwelcoming and very unwelcoming. Only four people raised their hands for the Ò very welcomingÓ category. McNaughtÕ s response, his recurring axiom: Ò Education, education, education.Ó Despite how far American society has come since he began his career, McNaught said, Ò still, there is this discomfort that people will only get passed when they get educated.Ó Outward signs of acceptance are key, McNaught said. Ò Everywhere that people go, they should know, and all of us should be trainedÑ not just the boss, but the person behind the deskÑ that Ô family membershipÕ means all kinds of families, and our job is to make all of them feel welcome, so they go home and tell their friends this is a welcoming place,Ó he said. For his audience, McNaught began this education with a lesson in appropriate language and conversational etiquette. McNaught talked the audience through situations in which heteronormativity may create an atmosphere of fear or anxiety for LGBT residents and visitors, and how to appropriately handle these situations when they arise to ensure that the Adirondacks become known as a place of alliesÑ one where welcoming music abounds and all people are welcome to enjoy all that the Park has to offer.
Continued progress
Ò Anyone can be an AllyÓ was the ADACÕ s second major training workshop. The ADAC’s first training session was held on March 24, with human rights activist and anti-bias educator Ellen Bettmann. A third training event is being developed by Environmental Philosopher Marianne Patinelli-Dubay of the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry (SUNY-ESF) Northern Forest Institute. This session will be offered in the summer. Ratcliffe said McNaughtÕ s workshop was both an informative and enjoyable experience for her staff and the scattering of local community members and business owners who attended the event. “Two hours went by in a flash, and everybody said they learned something,Ó Ratcliffe said.
N. Warren honors fallen soldiers in Memorial Day ceremony By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN Ñ Several hundred northern Warren County residents paid respects May 25 to those who dedicated their lives to serving our nation and protecting its freedom. Preceding the North Warren Memorial Day ceremony at the Veterans Memorial Plaza in Chestertown, was the annual parade — a display of pageantry, patriotism and pride, in which dozens of people of all ages marched down Main St. Led by the motorcyclists of the local Legion Riders chapter, the parade featured scouts, youth ballplayers, and firefighters representing the four area fire companies of Chestertown, Horicon, Pottersville and Riverside. Other emergency responders also marched. In the ensuing ceremony, Chestertown American Legion Post 964 Commander Joanne Ellsworth paid tribute to U.S. soldiers past and present. Ò Bless those veterans who dwell among us, or in our hearts Ñ those soldiers who have defended our freedom or are currently fighting for us,” she said. As Legionnaire John McConnell placed a black POW-MIA banner on a ceremonial empty chair beside the podium, Ellsworth said citizens should pay tribute to those who were captive or who were
never located after combat. Members of the American Legion Auxiliary laid a poppy wreath adjacent to a grouping of bronzed U.S. military gear: combat boots, helmet, dogtag and rifle — a sculpture known as the “Battle Cross” that memorializes fallen U.S. soldiers. In the serviceÕ s invocation, Local Legion and V.F.W. 5513 chaplain Lou Russo called for local citizens to never forget those soldiers who served with valor. Ellsworth praised the crowd for exhibiting a high level of patriotism. Ò You have demonstrated your Ô AmericanismÕ just by being here today,Ó she said. Following this theme, Ellsworth paid tribute to the late Ron Robert of Chestertown, who served in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. Following his return to northern Warren County, Robert served long tenures as both Chaplain and Commander of V.F.W. Post 5513. Ò Ron Robert was a patriot at heart, representing how important Americanism was for our forefathers,Ó Ellsworth said. Ellsworth also recognized a number of veterans for their many years of service. Among them were Harry Smith Sr., active in the local Legion post for 69 years, and Roy Boles, active in the organization for 60 years. The North Warren High School Marching Band, under the di-
rection of Colin MacInnis, played several patriotic selections during the ceremony. The band also performed while marching in the parade. The North Warren Select Senior Chorus, directed by Corey Cerullo, sang Ò America the BeautifulÓ and Ò The Star-Spangled Banner.Ó Student Amelia Robbins, a member of the select choir, sang Ò Proud to Be an American.Ó The youngsters of Creative Opportunity Day Care Center of Chestertown, operated by Joanne Ellsworth, led the Pledge of Allegiance. They also recited Ò Thirteen Stripes,Ó a poem that pays homage to the U.S. Flag. Local veterans Ken Little, Lou Little, Dan Searles and Sam Maltbie fired their guns in a salute to fallen soldiers. They were backed up by flag bearer Al Mundy. Following the ceremony, a reception and meal was hosted at the American Legion Post 964 headquarters, adjacent to the Municipal Center.

New Ti shuttle service, rail The importance of local businesses connection can be example L for other communities
F
ort Ticonderoga and Amtrak have teamed up to give rail passengers a more inviting experience to the historic former military installation, which is widely seen as one of the regionÕ s great cultural attractions. In addition to getting a two for one ticket deal on a fare to and from the Ticonderoga Amtrak station, beginning May 22 rail passengers are also able to hop aboard a free shuttle to Fort Ticonderoga once they arrive at the station. The new shuttle service, which is part of a Rails to Wheels program, comes as a relief to not only tourists, but to local residents who have cringed at the sight of visitors lugging their bags up a roughly one mile stretch of road between the train station and the grounds of the fort. The shuttle is truly a team effort involving collaboration between stakeholders including Amtrak, Fort Ticonderoga, the Best Western Plus Ticonderoga Inn and Suites, the New York State Department of Transportation and the Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce. The FortÕ s beautiful gardens, interactive exhibits and majestic views will all be more accessible thanks to the shuttle. ItÕ s a seemingly simple investment to put one extra vehicle out on the road. On the surface, thereÕ s no direct monetary impact. But it undoubtedly will make visitors feel a little bit more welcome. As anyone who has ever felt welcome -- or unwelcome -- in an unfamiliar place can attest, the little things truly matter. Yes, this partnership will concretely allow visitors to remove questions about renting cars and hailing cabs. ThereÕ s also something to be said for placing a smiling face in a waiting vehicle for visitors at the end of a long train ride. That type of Adirondack hospitality is sure to help spread the FortÕ s story. In boasting the transportation initiative last week, Fort Ticonderoga president and CEO Beth Hill said the partnership would help improve the region as a whole. She and other officials said the first-of-its kind program could serve as an example for other places around the Adirondacks. Officials mentioned no specific places or attractions that might be ripe for another shuttle. ThatÕ s understandable. Some analysis of the new shuttle service and thought should go into deciding whether it should be duplicated. Yet with the summer season heating up for 2015, the time is ripe for regional business groups to dig in and assess if they could create similar shuttle programs in 2016 and beyond.

ocal, home grown businesses in our rural areas provide so much more to the stability of our community economy than many realize. The value of keeping dollars at home, invested in local real estate, supporting community events and people, while providing the engine for everything local is the foundation upon which this country was built. Prior to the year 2000, small businesses created more jobs than large corporations. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case. Burdened by student loans and the fear of failure Dan Alexander coupled with the security of the government safety nets, Thoughts from the number of young entrepreneurs staking their future on Behind the Pressline themselves has seriously fallen off from previous generations. Tougher government regulations, health insurance, and human resource practices have imposed an overhead that is more easily spread across larger enterprises than small mom and pops, which only further serves to discourage new business start ups. Those start up businesses create excitement and enthusiasm. New entrepreneurs full of fresh ideas looking to conquer the world served as incubators for the next generation of Apples, Googles and SamÕ s Corner Stores. Those news businesses also populated our main streets and kept dollars flowing throughout the community as they grew, invested, borrowed and hired. ItÕ s that segment of the economy that is sorely missing today. The big guys in our communities play a valuable role, but they are few and far between and this column is not meant to slight their contribution to our economy. ItÕ s the small businesses with their creative approaches and enthusiastic drive that brings out the best in a community. Small businesses face daunting challenges from nearly every angle and the potential risk of losing everything lies in nearly every important decision they make, from location and hiring to marketing and cash management. But no other career challenge can provide the same level of satisfaction as owning your business. Increasing minimum wage, government handouts and more student debt will not bring prosperity back to our communities. IÕ m not referring to trickle down economics but instead upward matriculation of economic prosperity as a result of spreading the wealth around to a much larger pool of local owners who have a vested interest in the community while inspiring others to follow their lead. When only mega companies and government jobs prevail our economies will remain anemic. Again, we need those large stable industries and government entities but this countryÕ s historical roots and growth periods have always been when the little businesses are multiplying and thriving. The American dream provided everyone an equal opportunity to write their own ticket. Nothing was guaranteed but you gambled on your own skill, sweat and never say die attitude. Failure was just as likely as success, but lessons learned the first time around only served to stoke the fire when the next opportunity presented itself. There was time when that pioneer spirit made this country the grandest experiment the world had ever seen and unless we rekindle that spirit, I fear our future is look-alike big box businesses and government supported entities. But just like the Oreo cookie, itÕ s all that good stuff in the middle between those big cookies that we really crave and makes all the difference. Our communities and the economic vitality we are lacking these days is waiting for the American entrepreneur to get back into the fray and put this nation back on track. They canÕ t do it alone they need our support and encouragement. Please support our local businesses and remember how valuable they are to all of us who call this area home.

Letter to the Editor
Disagrees with part of column To the Adirondack Journal: While I agree with Dan Alexander that the Military Religious Freedom Foundation is being absurdly heavy-handed in their objection to Air Force Major General Craig Olson’s official proselytizing (the subject of Mr. AlexanderÕ s May 23 PublisherÕ s Column), I object to his stepping well beyond the historical facts about our nation in his eagerness to condemn – or should I say damn? – this secular group. Contrary to Mr. AlexanderÕ s assertions, there is no Ò importance of this nation under God” to recognize, and vigilance on behalf of secular government in the United States is not an attempt Ò to reshape the vision of the founding fathers.Ó In case Mr. Alexander is unaware, Ò under GodÓ was not in our nation’s Pledge of Allegiance from the start; it was added in 1954 by a Congress that wanted to appear to be doing something in response to the public hysteria Joseph McCarthy whipped up by claiming to see godless communists behind every bush. (For much the same reason, Congress changed the official motto of the United States from “E pluribus unumÓ to Ò In God We TrustÓ in 1956. At the height of the Cold War, who would dare vote against such demagogic legislation?) Indeed, as has been pointed out countless times to people attempting to redefine our country as fundamentalist Christian, God is mentioned nowhere in
Turning Back the Pages By Jean Hadden One Hundred Years Ago – May, 1915 Maxwell shows off its stuff
Edison Granger, of the Warrensburgh Garage, a representative of the Maxwell factory, demonstrated the Maxwell Ò Wonder Car,Ó in Warrensburgh with many stunts and difficult feats for the many local people who gathered to witness the performance. One of the Maxwells, a 25 horse-power, 5 - passenger machine, climbed the Horicon Avenue hill with a load of sixteen men aboard. In descending, the small car, with its big load, was stopped in the center of the hill, demonstrating the efficiency of the brakes. The little car did about everything but climb Mount Hackensack. To show the strength of the Maxwell, it was hitched to J.M. SomervilleÕ s Stanley Steamer and with 32 occupants in the latter car, the little Maxwell towed it the length of Main Street, from the Warren House (now New Way Lunch area) to the Big Turn (now near Ashes Hotel) and back again. So many people gathered on Main Street to watch the demonstration that Main Street resembled Broadway in New York City for several hours.
Heavy frost damages local crops
Jack Frost put in an appearance on the night of May 26, 1915 and before sunrise had succeeded in doing thousands of dollars of damage to growing crops in this vicinity. From many sections of Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties came reports that ice had formed, varying from an eighth to a quarter of an inch in thickness and the temperature hovered between twenty and thirty degrees. At the Wing farm in Kingsbury it was stated that peas were unharmed but that string beans and sweet corn were badly damaged. Wing Brothers had set out 4,000 tomato plants and of these fully one-half were destroyed. The frost was general throughout the state.
Old home improvements
The old Ò Dr. Howard House,Ó on Main Street, Warrensburgh, owned by Mrs. J.E. Goodman, is undergoing extensive repairs and improvements. A comfortable and commodious flat will be provided in the second story, making it a two family house. The grounds are also being graded. (Note – When it was completed, the “commodious flat” later became the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lee F. Stockton. The house vacated by the Stocktons, on James Street, was later occupied by the Michael McCarthy family. The Ò old Dr. Howard house,Ó across Main Street from the Presbyterian Church, was built (possibly enlarged) by Dr. Eliakim W. Howard around 1838 and today it is the home of the Peter Haggerty family. Mrs. J.E. Goodman was the former Julia Louise Howard, granddaughter of Eliakim Howard. The wife of Dr. James Edward Goodman, she lived in the next door (north) house that is today Seasons Bed and Breakfast, owned by Eileen Frasier. Peter Haggerty, a retired school teacher, is a former president of the Warrensburgh Historical Society, a recipient of the Chamber of Commerce’s prestigious Citizen of the Year Award and the current custodian in charge of the Warrensburg Cemetery.)
World news
It was just five years ago, May 18, 1910, that Halley’s Comet passed by earth, brushing the planet with its tail. On May 23, 1915, World War I raged on. Italy declared war on Austria-Hungary. On Friday afternoon, May 7, 1915, a German U-boat torpedoed and sank the British liner RMS Lusitania off the southern coast of Ireland, killing 1,198 innocent people, including 128 Americans. Only 802 passengers and crew members survived the icy water. “Murder in the first degreeÓ was the verdict of the world against the German Imperial government for its senseless act of wanton destruction of the English liner as it sailed ten miles off the Irish coast. Mr. and Mrs. William Wallace, of Warrensburgh, were expected to leave Monday morning for Sagamore Lodge, Racquette Lake where they had been engaged to work during the season for Alfred Gwynn Vanderbilt, who was one of the prominent victims of the Lusitania tragedy and it is now uncertain what arrangements will be made at the camp. Eugene Owens, of Warrensburgh, is currently employed there.

From the First Amendment: Ò Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.Ó Because even back then that wasnÕ t clear enough for some people, Thomas Jefferson subsequently clarified further in his famous “wall of separationÓ letter: Ò Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man & his god, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, thus building a wall of separation between church and state.Ó Mr. Alexander is certainly entitled to use his position as publisher of a newspaper to write on behalf of his personal beliefs, but on behalf of his readership he should endeavor to get his facts straight.

Joseph is spending a few weeks in Warrensburgh, intending to graduate with his 1915 class of Warrensburgh High School. (Note Ð Louis Weinman was a former supervisor of Warrensburgh, (1898 – 1907), and an owner of the Warrensburgh Shirt Factory. He died in 1909. The JosephÕ s beautiful Queen Anne style house on Elm Street, built around 1901, later became the home of Supervisor Frank W. Smith, who died in the house in a fire in 1931. Later, a new modern house was built on the property and it became the home of the Jack Toney family. Today, that house is being purchased by Museum Director Steve and Town Historian Sandi Parisi.)
Prominent citizen dies
Jacob E. Johnson, 61, died April 29, 1915 at his home on Hudson Street, Warrensburgh. He was the last member of his immediate family. He was a member of the firm of A.C. Emerson & Co., lumber and coal merchants, owning and operating a large saw mill on the Schroon River in Lewisville (River Street), the manufacturing district of Warrensburgh. This business, a one-fourth interest he inherited in 1890 upon the death of his father, the late Sanford W. Johnson, he has since been engaged in. On Nov. 28, 1898, Jacob Johnson married Miss Nellie Crandall, daughter of Thomas Crandall, who died in 1900 leaving no children. (Note Ð The Johnson family owned a large farm, Meadowbrook Stock Farm, where Jacob Johnson was born, containing 375 acres, on the South Johnsburgh Road, in Thurman, which today is known as Nettle Meadow Goat Farm. The homestead was built by JacobÕ s great-grandfather, William Johnson, who came from Rhode Island in 1792. Jacob raised stock on his inherited ancestral stock farm with the aid of his resident overseer, George A. Ingraham.)
Building in Glens Falls
Charles J. Prowse has purchased of H. McKie Wing, the building at 92 Glen Street, Glens Falls, occupied on the ground floor by J.C. White’s Cigar Store. The adjoining building in which Mr. ProwseÕ s restaurant is located is also owned by Mr. Prowse. In the near future the new owner is planning on removing the ground floor partition between the two stores and enlarging his restaurant, a single front entrance will be made with an upstairs entrance on the side. The new restaurant is fully expected to be one of the best in the city.

Selah Fuller, 81, of West Bolton, took down his 70 year old gun, a muzzle-loading shot gun and with the natural sight in his eyes, shot and killed a squirrel on the top of a nearby building. A speeding motorboat, the Ò Show Me 111,Ó owned by W.K. Bixby of St. Louis, is being used on Lake George at his beautiful home at Bolton Landing. The six-cylinder engine drives the boat better than 32 miles per hour, straightaway.
The world of music
Ò DickÓ Whitby, a former Warrensburgh boy, has signed an eight months contract, which began April 1, 1915, with John Philip SousaÕ s marching band. For some time now he has been engaged in orchestra work at the famous Palace Theatre in New York City. Charles A.

Family & Memorial Day
A
s I sat on our back deck soaking up the ambiance of our beloved Saranac River on Memorial Day morning, I reflected on many things including what we once called Decoration Day. At Moira High School our band marched to every rural cemetery paying tribute to fallen service men and women. I had played trombone, but was Ò chosenÓ to carry the huge tuba in the marching band. The director told me I was the only member strong enough to haul that gigantic instrument around my neck. I was flatby Gordie Little tered. Actually, I enjoyed the oompah sound. To this day, Kaye and I enjoy hearing all the old march tunes we learned during our marching band days. It was hardly fair, though, because she played the flute. If you were to ask her today, she would insist that she has always carried the heavy load in this marriage. I canÕ t disagree. We had out-of-town guests last weekend. KayeÕ s sister Ò DotÓ Trevor and son Mark drove up from Virginia and we asked what exciting things they wanted to do. The response: Ò We just want to sit on your enclosed deck and watch the river.Ó Fair enough. We have always found that this little piece of paradise tends to inspire introspection. Spending time out here causes us to recall and compare childhood memories growing up in the North Country. It was fun listening to Kaye and Dorothy repaint scenes from Morrisonville, Altona, Saranac Lake, Lake Colby and elsewhere. Those charming conversations inevitably lead to recollections of grandparents and great grandparents. They sometimes had colorful discussions about who begat whom. Some are more fortunate than I in that regard. Since my mother was the youngest of seven children, I never got to know my own grandparents. The subject got around to genealogy. Thanks to my friends in and outside the Northern New York American-Canadian Genealogical Society housed in Dannemora, I have learned a lot about my own family tree. I was given help tracing my motherÕ s maiden name of Requa and my Little surname. My own efforts had been pathetic in that regard. Accolades to those who offered expert assistance all along the way. For example, Julie Dowd recently pointed me toward information indicating that one of my ancestors helped to invent a rather fantastic gun during the American Civil War. It featured multiple barrels which could all be fired at the same time. I watched a video demonstration and it figuratively blew me away. Mark Trevor and other family members have been busy tracing their roots back into antiquity. While they were here, we had great fun dragging out ancient marriage certificates and other documents as we plugged more family history into the family records. The Internet has brought to our computer screens almost instant access to data from around the world that we could only have dreamed about when we marched to those cemeteries. Those were the days when newspapers, radio and telephone party lines were our main sources of information. Mark is an IT wizard. That stands for information technology for the uninitiated. His nimble fingers flew across the screen of his latest iPhone 6 plus, or whatever the heck itÕ s called. We watched in awe as he plugged in new information that will be shared, not only by his family, but by future generations to infinity. I bless those who work diligently on genealogy for themselves and others and thank all the people who have enriched us through their study of the past to give us perspective in the future. IÕ ve always said our lives are like the connect-the-dots pages from our childhood coloring books. As we draw the line from the first number to the last, the picture begins to be revealed and helps give us meaning. My Uncle Glode Requa served in World War One. He returned to tell me his stories while he worked in his Monsey, NY vegetable garden. KayeÕ s and DotÕ s brother, Alfred Vaughan, Jr, died serving his country in Italy during the next war. He didnÕ t make it home. We must never forget his sacrifice and all the others.

R and P Hookah and Tea opens its doors in Lake George Vil. By Ryan Edwards
ryan@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE Ñ Lake George native Russell Radigan opened his own barber shop, Rad Razors, on South Street in South Glens Falls when he was 20 years old. Now three years later, he recently doubled his list of entrepreneurial enterprises after one of his customers, Justin Petley, made him an offer he couldnÕ t refuse as Radigan went to work with his clippers Ñ a hookah bar in the Village of Lake George. The two men Ñ who have been friends since their days at Queensbury High School Ñ later hammered out the details and came to an agreement, and R and P Hookah and Tea was born, recently opening its doors at the Mayard Center off Canada Street in the heart of the Village. Hookahs were invented in Persia in the 1500s as an instrument for inhaling vapor or smoke from flavored tobacco called “shisha,” which is filtered through a water basin and heated by coals at a significantly lower temperature than if burned directly. This process is believed by users to have a calming effect on the body and mind. Hookah bars are popular in major cities like Los Angeles, New York and Miami, co-owner Justin Petley said, and R and P is an attempt to Ò bring a bit of the city life to the Adirondacks.Ó Petley and Radigan said this new business will provide neces-

sary entertainment to what they consider to be an under-served demographic in the town. Lake George tourists who arenÕ t of age to experience the nightlife and are too old to spend their entire vacation on family-ori-
ented attractions can find a “safe outlet to listen to music and have a good timeÓ at R and P, Petley said. At the hookah bar, patrons can rent a two-person hookah for $20, as well as a choice of over 40 flavors of shisha from six different brands. Ò Hookah is a social event,Ó Petley said. Ò The more people you bring, the cheaper it gets.Ó But it isnÕ t all about the shisha, as, like the name suggests, R and P also offers 15 different types of herbal teas, as well as Saratoga Coffee TradersÕ entire line. Petley and Radigan said that their partnership is a unique fusion of their individual skillsets Ñ PetleyÕ s knowledge of the product and RadiganÕ s business and marketing acumen. Ò Russell puts up a Facebook status and gets 200 likes in two minutes,Ó Petley said. Ò It doesnÕ t matter how good of a product IÕ m putting out if no one knows about it.Ó Radigan echoed his partnerÕ s praises: Ò HeÕ s smart, he travels, he knows everything about this,Ó he said of Petley. The pair look forward to growing their business in the coming years, and are currently entertaining the idea of applying for a liquor license, Petley said. The menu at R and P changes every two weeks, and Petley said that he and Radigan will continue to offer new and sometimes unusual flavors as the business grows. Ò Every dollar we make we will invest in this place to make it better,Ó he said.
DEC accepting applications for rural firefighter grant program RAY BROOK— Rural fire departments can now apply for $400,000 in Volunteer Fire Assistance grants, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Commissioner Joe Martens announced. The grants help rural fire departments enhance their wildfire fighting capabilities. The deadline for applications to the federally funded program is June 30. “Fire departments in rural areas work diligently in their fire protection efforts, serving thousands of New Yorkers,Ó Commissioner Martens said. “Rural fire departments pool resources with state Forest Rangers to fight wildfires that threaten local communities and natural resources. This grant program helps these communities prepare for the challenge of fighting wildfires.” The Volunteer Fire Assistance grant program is funded by
the U.S. Forest Service and administered by DEC. If awarded, fire departments will receive 50/50 matching funds up to the amount of $1,500. Last year, the program allocated $400,000, which provided $1,000 grants to 400 fire departments. DEC received a federal appropriation of $400,000 for 2015. Only expenses directly related to fire suppression efforts are eligible for funding. These include the purchase of portable pumps, portable backpack pumps, hand tools, hoses, lightweight fireproof clothing (Nomex), hard hats, turnout gear, portable radios, generators and dry hydrants. Expenditures not directly related to firefighting, such as search and rescue, acquisition of land, construction of buildings and facilities, major apparatus purchases and maintenance items are not eligible for funding.
Eligible fire departments include those that serve a single town with a population under 10,000; those that serve multiple communities, one of which is a rural town of less than 10,000 residents; and fire departments in towns with a population of 10,000 or more that meet the requirements listed on the application. Fire departments that receive a grant award must complete all required grant paperwork by October 30, 2015. For applications or further information about the grant program, contact DEC at 402-8839, or write to NYSDEC, Division of Forest Protection, 625 Broadway 3rd Floor, Albany, NY, 122332560 or, visit the DEC website at http://www.dec.ny.gov/regulations/2364.html
ALBANY Ñ Gov. Andrew Cuomo today announced the state acquisition of the Berry Pond Preserve in Warren County, which was attained to protect water quality in Lake George and its tributaries. New York State purchased the 1,436-acre property from the Lake George Land Conservancy with $1.7 million from the Environmental Protection Fund. Ò By purchasing this land, the State is stepping up to protect the health and vitality of Lake George and the surrounding communities,Ó Cuomo said. Ò The Berry Pond Preserve is an integral part of both the local ecosystem and the regionÕ s economy, and we will ensure that it remains pollutant-free and accessible for families and visitors alike to enjoy for years to come.Ó The Berry Pond Preserve lies within the Warren County towns of Lake George, Lake Luzerne and Warrensburg, and includes the headwaters of West Brook, a major tributary to the southern basin of Lake George. Because water quality in this part of Lake George is closely tied to the health of West Brook, purchasing the tract will help to protect these waters. The property will be added to the State Forest Preserve and the state will pay full local property and school taxes on the newly acquired land. The Lake George Land Conservancy purchased the preserve in January 2008 as an integral part of the West Brook Conservation Initiative, which is designed to dramatically reduce sediments and pollutants that currently run freely into West Brook and, subsequently, into Lake George near the Ò Million DollarÓ Beach. It is a coordi-
nated effort by Warren County, the Village of Lake George, New York State, the Lake George Land Conservancy, the Fund for Lake George and the Lake George Association. Ò Tens of thousands of visitors will soon descend on Lake George to marvel at its amazing beauty during the very busy summer season,Ó said Senator Betty Little. Ò Protecting this incredible asset is good for the environment and for the economy. This acquisition will help ensure a watershed critically important to the health of the lake is protected for generations to come.Ó Ò Protecting the waters of Lake George continues to be a priority for New York State,Ó said Assemblyman Dan Stec. Ò Providing additional recreational activities will be an economic benefit to the entire region.Ó Ò Governor Cuomo is committed to helping communities across the state access their natural resources to provide exciting recreation opportunities for residents and visitors, which will also benefit the regional economy. The acquisition of the Berry Pond Preserve helps further this goal and protects an important tributary in the Lake George Watershed,Ó added Department of Environmental Conservation Commissioner Joe Martens. Connecting nearly 10,000 acres of protected land, the Berry Pond tract links Prospect Mountain, lands owned by The Nature Conservancy, the Department of Environmental Conservation sustainable forestry easement lands and other open space land owned by the village and town of Lake George. Situated adjacent to the existing Lake George Recreation Center, the Berry Pond tract provides significantly expanded outdoor recreational resources for residents and visitors, including trails used by the South Warren Snowmobile Club.

quoting a prominent motorcycle journalist. Many of the events are available only to official rally participants Ñ but for 2015, Americade is now providing public access to a greater variety of events. Saturday night, rocker Aaron Lewis will be on stage at Lake GeorgeÕ s new festival venue at Charles Wood Park, and the public is welcome. Lewis, a former member of the rock group Staind, is popular for both his alt-metal hits as well as his country music. A noted reviewer has said that Lewis is Ò one of the most versatile recording artists of modern times.Ó Lewis is backed up by four other bands: Funkalicious, The Lazy Suns, the Matt O’Ree Band, and Citizens Band Radio. Dutcher said the ticket price is half of what would be expected. Tickets are available on www.Ticketfly.com. A variety of Americade events once held at remote locations have been moved into Lake George Village. The extensive motorcycle judging — with dozens of awards including best chrome or detailing work, most elaborate lights, or best restoration Ñ has been moved to the Fort William Henry near the sidewalk on Canada Street so passersby can ogle the hundreds of two-wheeled contest entries. These contests are set for mid-day Wednesday through Friday, June 3-5.
New setting for two-wheeled trade show
Tour Expo Ñ the nationÕ s largest touring motorcycle trade show Ñ has some substantial upgrades this year, Dutcher said. This exposition of Ò everything motorcycle-relatedÓ is to be held Tuesday June 2 through Saturday June 6 on the completely reconstructed Million Dollar Beach parking lot, which has a new ambiance and functionality after a $6.3 million renovation. Also new this year is a one-time rebate of $10 to any person who spends $50 at Tour Expo Ñ an enticement Americade has added to turn browsers into buyers, Dutcher continued. Tour Expo features a quarter-million square feet of motorcycle services, accessories and apparel. Another new aspect of Americade is a revamped rodeo. It will benefit Prospect Center, which provides services for individuals with developmental disabilities. Billed as Ò Softening a Rough Ride Ñ Americade Charity Rodeo,Ó the event is to be held Wednesday evening at Painted Pony Ranch, and the public is welcome, Dutcher said. Ò ItÕ s a new concept for us, and weÕ re hoping motorcyclists and the general public will respond,Ó he said. Painted Pony Ranch, the source for tickets, will be donating a substantial portion of the ticket price to Prospect Center. The annual parade of many thousands of registered Americaders, set for Saturday, is to conclude at Charles Wood Park this year Ñ just in time for the Lake George Rotary Charity Barbecue Ñ which kicks off the headline concert. AmericadeÕ s factory demo rides, in which motorcyclists testdrive the latest models Ñ feature 12 different manufacturers this
During a recent year’s edition of Americade motorcycle rally, touring riders cruise down Canada St in Lake George Village. This year’s edition is set for Monday June 1 through Saturday June 6. A variety of new events are planned, including a concert featuring Grammy-nominated recording artist Aaron Lewis — and four other bands. Photo by Thom Randall
year. In this week-long attraction, riders can straddle such brands as Harley Davidson, Ducati, Honda, Victory, Indian, Yamaha, Suzuki, CanAm Spyder, Star, Road Smith and Motor Trike. Other national rallies only offer a few manufacturers, Dutcher said. Americade is also presenting, in daily shows, the Smage Brothers motorcycle stunt team, featured a few years ago on AmericaÕ s Got Talent with their gravity-defying two-wheeled acrobatics. “They are amazing — phenomenally talented,” Dutcher said, noting that Pat Smage is a six-time trials motorcycle champion. Another new aspect of 2015 Americade is a partnership with the Lone Survivor Foundation in its efforts fighting Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome. Various opportunities will be available
Court expansion From page 1
enlarge the countyÕ s Family Courts to 1,600 feet, but the state Office of Court Administration called for the courtrooms to be a maximum of 1,000 square feet so theyÕ d be similar to other new county court facilities around the state. This downsizing has prompted criticism by local supervisors, who said state officials werenÕ t adequately providing for future court needs. For years, local judges have cited that spiraling caseloads, continuing increase in complexity and duration of cases Ñ plus various governmental mandates Ñ have caused severe overcrowding in court facilities, compromising safety and decreasing efficiency. The county judges have for years warned of potentially disastrous consequences if more space wasnÕ t provided. TheyÕ ve talked of abusers an arms-length away from victims at court proceedings, prisoners in close proximity with children, a lack of private conference space, even court staff at risk of attack.
One popular attraction of Americade will be back by popular demand Ñ the rally features several shows by stand-up comedian Alonzo Bodden, who is an avid motorcyclist. Dutcher noted that BoddenÕ s shows in past years have always prompted standing ovations. Bodden, who relishes interaction with his audience, was the winner of NBCÕ s Last Comic Standing competition in 2005. “Alonzo is a top-notch comic,” Dutcher said, noting that his public show is set for 8 p.m. Saturday at Towers Hall, Fort William Henry. Ò HeÕ ll get the place rocking.Ó BoddenÕ s Tuesday and Thursday evening shows are open only to Americaders. Dutcher noted that Bodden is a true two-wheel enthusiast Ñ this year, heÕ s riding one of his motorcycles across the nation to participate in Americade, Dutcher said. Other attractions of the rally include a cruise on Wednesday June 3 featuring a Beatles tribute band. ThursdayÕ s events include a Hawaiian fest and beach party with a pig roast and a Beach Boys tribute band Ñ plus the Festival of Lights with a parade of motorcycles decked out with extensive lighting, a fire juggler. Friday features a fireworks show accompanied by live music. Details on Americade 2015 can be found at www.americade.com. Whether itÕ s browsing for bike accessories at Tour Expo, examining or test-driving new models, taking a guided two-wheeled tour into the mountains, or socializing with long-time Americade buddies, motorcyclists will undoubtedly be enjoying the rally that is now legendary after a third of a century. Dutcher said enthusiasm is substantial for this yearÕ s edition. “Traffic on our website and pre-registrations are both up from recent years Ñ ThereÕ s a lot of excitement,Ó he said. Ò These are indicators that it will be quite a successful year.Ó The additional space is also necessary to accommodate an additional Family Court judge that has been mandated by the state. A new judge, to be elected in November, is to take office January 1. Construction on the new court facilities is to begin later this year or early next year, and to be completed by late 2016 or spring 2017. Supervisors have yet to decide how to provide a temporary courtroom, court chambers and associated office space for the new Family Court judge. Such space might have to be rented off the county municipal center campus, and county supervisors have blamed state Court Administration officials for delaying approval of plans, leading to additional expense to county taxpayers. The board of supervisorsÕ vote for the court expansion May 15 included approving paying Clark Patterson & Lee engineering firm up to $884,000 for design and construction documents, as well as overseeing bids and monitoring construction work.
