Board decision irks founders of market

New hangars could cost county, public comment set

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

QUEENSBURY — Public comment on an agreement that will bring to two new hangars and a storage building to the Floyd Bennett Memorial Airport will be accepted next month, with potential for negotiations or amendments to the document.

An original draft of the lease agreement allowed Rich Air, owned by Rich Schermer-

horn, to construct the buildings, removing two older building with the newer structures, at his own expense. At the end of the contract, the properties would revert to ownership by the county.

A portion of paving, however, was to be conducted by Warren County, with an estimated price tag of $120,000.

Grant funding is available, leaving the county to foot five percent of the cost. The application process, however, is nearing an

end and whether the county would receive an award is not yet known.

Without the benefit of a grant, the county would be dependent on the 7.5 cents per gallon earned from sales of fuel per gallon.

Some quick estimates by supervisors discovered it would take approximately 17 years to break even on the paving project, sans a grant, if the county pays for the paving.

The current contract leases the property to

Rich Air for a term of 20 years at a cost of .29 cents per square foot. Rich Schermerhorn did not return a request for comment.

Glens Falls Ward 3 Supervisor Claudia Braymer suggested the board leave open the possibility of a clause in the contract to recoup some or all of the paving costs if grant funding is not awarded.

Public comment will be accepted at the July 15 Board of Supervisors meeting starting at 10 a.m.

Queensbury Hotel becomes major sponsor of annual hospital golf tourney GLENS FALLS — The Queensbury Hotel has signed on as a major sponsor of the 8th annual Cindy and Skeets Glens Falls Hospital Cancer Day Golf Tournament Friday, July 8, at the Glens Falls Country Club.

The tournament is the largest annual fundraiser for the hospital’s C.R. Wood Cancer Center, and has raised a total of nearly $700,000 to fund support programs for cancer patients and their families over the past seven years.

“We are extremely grateful to The Queensbury for stepping up in support of area cancer patients and the hospital, and we encourage other businesses and organizations to join them,” said Cindy Sherwood, Glens Falls Hospital Vice President of Development.

The tournament honors the memories of the late Cindy Ginsburg and Ralph “Skeets” Woodbury, two longtime and beloved members of the regional community who lived with cancer for many years and supported the Cancer Center in many ways. The hospital’s first Cancer Day Golf Tournament was held in 1974 and was later named in honor of Mr. Woodbury, one of its founding organizers. In 2009, that tournament merged with Cindy’s Summer Classic, which was founded in honor of Ms. Ginsburg.

Morning tee times can still be reserved at birdeasepro.com/ cindyandskeets. Registration includes a barbecue lunch. An awards reception and live auction will take place following the afternoon round of play.

Additional sponsorship opportunities are available by contacting Cristina Britton of the Glens Falls Hospital Foundation at 926-5969 or cbritton@glensfallshosp.org.

Lake George seniors: ‘Learn from future hardships!’

Tribute honors Pamela Barker

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — Adhering to a theme of tackling challenges and working towards one’s potential, six senior honor students offered their thoughts and advice June 25 during Lake George High School’s 65th graduation ceremonies.

Kerry Walker acknowledged that problems and hardships are inevitable in life, but noted that her schoolmates had already gained experience in working through them during their school years.

“I urge all of you to continue to transcend the barriers in front of you — climb that mountain,” she said. “Look back over all that you have accomplished, and let your pride envelop you.”

Andrea Smith also observed that her classmates had learned from overcoming setbacks and failures.

“I urge you to not be oppressed by or afraid of these failures, but embrace them and pick yourself back up,” she said.

“Carry on knowing that you have made yourself a stronger, wiser and better person.”

Citing a metaphor of climbing a mountain, she said that success was achieved by taking new approaches, one after another, to obstacles as they arise in life.

“The climb to the top is not a straight path,” she said, noting that meeting tough challenges builds character. “There are often rock or trees in the way which don’t stop the climb, they just redirect it.”

Jassica Hunsicker also referred to this theme as she talked about pursuing success.

“If there is no struggle, there is no progress,” she said, quoting civil rights advocate Frederick Douglass.

Hunsicker said that all of her classmates had worked through hardships, academic or personal, and had experienced growth as a result.

“As we struggle, our empathy for others in similar situations develops,” she said. We are becoming more compassionate with each hardship we encounter.”

She urged all her classmates to embrace the future, push themselves, and achieve their aspirations.

Brett Parsons talked about how perseverance, self-discipline and determination are vital to achieving personal fulfillment.

“Thomas Jefferson once said, ‘I find the harder I work, the more luck I seem to have,’” Parsons said, adding that success was not defined by reaching one’s goals, but one’s experiences and personal growth in the journey toward the goals.

He added that because success is never achieved alone, one should be thankful for others’ help along their life’s journey, and in turn assist others.

“True success is setting out to help others achieve their goals,” he said.

Focusing on the future, Noah Prime quoted C.S. Lewis who said there are always “far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind.”

Prime urged his peers to seek out “tough paths” towards their goals to reap the greatest sense of fulfilment.

“Even when we reach one goal, we should never be comfortable,” he said. “All of us should always be looking to do bigger and better things with our lives.”

Acknowledging that his classmates bristle at having limitations set on them, he noted that the only truly binding limita-

Wine, beer and spirits to be featured Friday at Wbg market

thom@suncommunitynews.com

WARRENSBURG — Friday July 1,shoppers at the Warrensburg Farmers’ Market will have a new experience — tasting a variety of locally handcrafted wine, beer and spirits.

The market will be hosting their first-ever Craft Beverage Festival from 3 to 6 p.m. on Friday, featuring the products of two wineries, two breweries, a distillery, and a purveyor of hard cider — as well as a distributor of fair-trade coffee.

“Our festival this Friday provides an opportunity for people to taste the wonderful handcrafted beverages that are made in the lower Adirondacks region, market founder Teresa Whalen said.

Participating in Adirondack Winery of Lake George, Ledge Rock winery of Corinth, Battle Hill Brewery of Fort Ann and Paradox Brewery of Paradox NY and Yankee Distillery of Clifton Park. The latter enterprise will be showcasing their aged bourbon and rye whiskies as well as their vodka.

This Friday also features the products of Owl Valley Farm of

Chestertown, which is raising hops for Adirondack Brewery of Lake George.

Samplings of these craft beverages are to be complimented at the festival by locally grown and prepared foods offered by area restaurants and farms.

These specialty goods are additions to the wide array of organic or naturally-grown fruits and vegetables, as well as hormone-and antibiotic-free meats, poultry on sale at the market. The venue also offers plants, cut flowers and naturally produced cheeses, breads, pies, soaps, lotions, essential oils, and all-natural dog treats. Also, visitors at the fest will undoubtedly be sharing conversations with artisans selling their handmade jewelry, pottery, rustic furniture.

Whalen notes that residents and visitors alike have for many years enjoyed not only all these wares, but the ambiance of the market, situated alongside the picturesque Schroon River in the Warrensburgh Mills Historic District. The market is located on River St. or Rte. 418 across the road from Curtis Lumber.

tions were the self-imposed ones.

“The sky’s the limit for the Class of 2016,” he said.

Erika Abrantes advised her classmates to embrace the present moment — attaining the summit of high school.

“The sky is crystal-clear blue, the wind is touching our faces, and we are looking out into the seemingly never-ending mountains beyond us,” she said.

She also urged her peers to try novel ways of overcoming their challenges, while keeping focused on their future.

“Go off the trail and explore — it could lead you to a new climb full of new possibilities and opportunities,” she said.

“Embrace your challenges, smile during your successes, and live in the moment. Learn from your mistakes and celebrate your victories.”

Principal Fran Cocozza, who in a prior years’ graduations careened down a zip line above the audience and in another year sang a rap song with a student, chose a more conventional role in this year’s ceremony — he spoke on the nature of friendship and the vital role it played in one’s life.

Introductory greetings and announcement of the class’s charity recipient, St. Jude’s Hospital, was made by Annie Williams.

The Senior Class sang “I Can See Clearly Now,” by Johnny Nash.

The faculty and staff pulled off a surprise for the class. Musicians who years ago shared jam sessions with the late Pamela Barker — the Lake George art teacher and musician who died in April at a young age from cancer — joined faculty and staff in playing instruments and singing “Lean On Me” in her honor.

The emotional tribute, considered uplifting by many, prompted a standing ovation from the audience.

Short term rental issues still linger in Warrensburg

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

WARRENSBURG — Communication and a teamwork approach by Warrensburg town officials and property owners have alleviated some disturbances caused by short term rentals. Problems still linger, however, prompting a look at how to quell them for good.

“We’ve had issues in the past with short term rentals. We’ve had several residents appear in front of the town board, so we set up a workshop session,” Supervisor Kevin Geraghty said.

That session in early June, he said, was productive.

The town identified and contacted more than 20 property owners that allow short term rentals.

“We have some in the hamlet proper that have been difficult to deal with,” he said.

Concerns over the rentals, typically with vacationers staying in the homes for about

a week, have been fielded by the board for some time.

At a September 2014 town board meeting, residents relayed situations involving fireworks, illegal parking, noise and public intoxication.

Residents, at that time, said after police responded to complaints, no action was taken as the town does not have a noise ordinance.

Geraghty, however, said police do respond and charges can be made for disturbing the peace.

One of those residents unhappy with his lack of options to stop the late night and early morning hour disruptions was Mark Murray, who lives on Echo Lake.

Nearly two years later, he’s still faced with the same issues.

“I think it’s calmed down some, but only because the town applied pressure. The ones next to us are still a problem,” he said.

“Every Thursday,” he said, referring to the day new renters come in, “you don’t know

Georgia O’Keeffe, all time winner Recently the local daily newspaper sent a reporter out on the street to ask citizens, “Who is your favorite painter?” The answers were varied but I was surprised to read that, in my opinion, this area’s all time great painter was not even mentioned.

Georgia O’Keeffe was not born here, she did not die here and she is not buried in New York, but back in the days after she married celebrated photographer Alfred S. Stieglitz, in 1924, she spent many summers at his family’s property at Lake George. Over my computer desk I have a large poster size copy of one of her paintings depicting the lake and mountains. She was famous for her odd iconic flower paintings.

One of her paintings hung in the White House. She is said to have loved Lake George but she once declared that it was really “too green” for her taste, she preferred the desert.

An O’Keeffe painting, “Lake George Reflection,” created by her in 1921-1922 and exhibited in 1923, after which it disappeared from public view, was offered, May 19, 2016, at Christie’s Auction House in New York City. It measured five feet by 3 feet and sold for $12.9 million dollars.

There was a rumor that Alfred S. Stieglitz’s body lays in an unmarked grave on the shore of Lake George, but I do not know this to be true. This couple surely deserves to have their special place in Lake George history.

who is going to be your neighbor and if they’re going to behave or not.”

“When issues have arisen,” said Geraghty, “homeowners have sometimes attempted to address the renters themselves, or filed a complaint with the town later. Attempting to work with property owners and discouraging neighbors from intervening has been fruitful,” Geraghty said.

“They’ve got contracts with the renters and they do try to police it themselves. Sometimes it works, but sometimes it doesn’t.”

When it fails, however, said Geraghty, “We are encouraging everyone to call the police in these situations.”

Geraghty did not identify an address, but said one particular property that had numerous complaints has seen much improvement.

Warren County Sheriff Bud York said, “We, of course, will handle any noise complaints we get. That being said, the board should adopt rules to limit this type of renting on short term basis in the hamlet. It has seemed

vision of the Supreme Court, Friday, June 30, 1916, handed down a decision unanimously affirming the order made in 1912 by Warren County Judge Raley, sentencing Pasco to ten years in prison.

Sam Pasco, the son of Leander Pasco, was indicted on a charge of grand larceny in the second degree for cutting and stealing lumber in 1912 from the property of Delbert L. Everts in Thurman. He pleaded guilty to the charge. Sentence was suspended on the condition that he would leave WarrenCounty but he failed to do so. He was re-arrested and the prison sentenced passed upon him. About three months ago he began proceedings to be liberated, bringing a Habeas Corpus action against Warden Tromblee of Dannemora Prison, asking the warden to show just cause why he should not be allowed his liberty. Attorney James S. Kiley appeared in the opposition to Pasco’s interest in the case.

to cause a number of problems, especially with fireworks.”

It is possible the town could end up creating a mandatory permit for short term rentals, allowing revocation if the rentals are a nuisance.

Such permits, however, have been lauded unsuccessful in some areas as a disgruntled neighbor could file unwarranted complaints.

Geraghty said, “We’re still in the phase of having our town attorney look at things we could potentially do to control them a little bit better. The town will take action if the property owner doesn’t take care of this.

We’re trying to appease both entities.”

“My preference would be that (short term rentals) are not even there,” said Murray. “I live in a residential neighborhood. The short term rentals amount to a business. We get no say in if they are there, but it’s up to us to call the police. I don’t want to be too hard on the town…all I know is it’s getting worse.”

Elderly lady passes away Mrs. Anna Lavanway, who would have been 105 years of age had she lived until October, died recently in the Warren County Home, in Warrensburgh, but institutional rules kept the matter from the public until Monday night, July 10, 1916.

Throughout her life Mrs. Lavanway always worked hard, was well educated and retained all her faculties until three hours before her death when she became unconscious. As far as it is known, she has no known relatives.

Mrs. Lavanway’s maiden name was Miss Anna Taylor and she was born in Moriah, Essex County, a little more than 104 years ago. She was married at the age of twenty-five and was the mother of eight children, seven of whom, are known to >> See TURNING| pg. 12

She is survived by one son, Virgil Kenyon, of Thurman, a sister, Mrs. George Everts of Glens Falls and two brothers, Silas and Seth Combs. Burial was in the Kenyontown Cemetery.

A time for celebration

ver the last few years as our nation celebrates its independence in July, we’ve joined with other free community newspaper publishing companies to celebrate the services provided to over 50 million homes around the country.

A recently published article in Editor and Publisher titled “Despite ‘Doom and Gloom’ Community Newspapers are Growing Stronger” shows that small, community newspapers across the country are not just surviving, but — in many cases — actually thriving. The article notes that many of them have managed to dodge the layoffs, furloughs and downsizing that larger papers have had to face.

Chip Hutcheson, president of the National Newspaper Association, which represents more than 2,100 community newspaper companies throughout the country, said: “You don’t hear about community papers going out of business. At a recent press association meeting, I met several people who say they started a (small) paper two or three years ago.”

Don’t be fooled by the misnomer that “free” means “cheap” or “throw away” nor that “community” isn’t the single most important focus of the product. Our business model is based on two simple facts: 1) A quality newspaper can be published and distributed in mass without charging the recipient and 2) The paper reaches so many local people that it becomes a useful tool for local businesses to distribute their advertising message.

Sadly too many newspaper have adopted the wrong approach in meeting the needs of their market primarily due to their corporate structure, gone awry after a buying frenzy, in the later part of the last century.

Kevin Slimp, a renown newspaper consultant, recently put it this way: “Borrowing an old line from Ford, ‘Quality really is job one.’ Reduce quality, and the result is fewer readers. Reduce readers, and the result is fewer advertisers.

Reduce advertisers, and the result is fewer pages. Reduce pages, and the result is even fewer readers. It’s a never-ending cycle.”

Simply put community newspapers are alive and well.

We are relevant and vital to the communities we serve. Our future success is directly linking to the communities we serve by providing the stories about our people, our communities, and our local businesses. Ultimately, we do not intend to abandon them, and we don’t believe our readers will abandon us.

On behalf of the staff and our family, I want to thank you for the faith you’ve placed in us and for your continued encouragement as we continue to grow stronger.

County taxpayers deserve forwardlooking leadership on Frontier Town

T

he Essex County Board of Supervisors have ended the most recent round of discussions on Frontier Town by declining to authorize a study of the buildings that once constituted the former theme park.

Obtaining a full understanding of these structures, said county officials, would have aided them in deciding how to move forward on the problematic parcels, particularly if they were found to contain asbestos, which can be costly to remediate.

But lawmakers overwhelmingly voted to defeat the proposal on Monday, citing unknown costs.

Without a single trace of irony, supervisors then casually discussed the idea of putting the property back on the auction block.

Then they recessed without making a decision.

Total meeting time: Less than 30 minutes.

To what do we attribute this unwillingness to solve pressing governmental affairs?

Is it extreme amnesia? Maybe it’s the hot weather. Or perhaps this decision is a combination of the two, resulting in a total mindmelt.

Either way, the county supervisors who voted against the measure should be embarrassed at their lack of institutional memory.

Punting the parcel to the auction block is exactly what lawmakers did in 2014, resulting in a dispute with a private businessman that blossomed into a full-fledged lawsuit, a permissive referendum in North Hudson and countless hours of debate that ultimately led nowhere.

And yet here we are, casually talking about another tax auction.

It’s tough to calculate how much this indecision has cost county taxpayers.

But we do know back taxes have continued to accrue on the property.

In just two years, the tax bill has risen 20 percent to $174,300.

That equates to about $37 per day.

There appears to be no end in sight.

Earlier this year, our editorial board said the county should simply give the property to the Open Space Institute for inclusion in a planned state Department of Conservation trail network across the central Adirondacks.

That may still be an option. But if lawmakers have a broader plan, they’re not showing their hand, instead opting to engage in a series of secretive discussions behind closed doors.

While we still think pumping taxpayer dollars into the facility is a fool’s errand, lawmakers owe it to themselves to finish what they started — and that includes authorizing the funds to conduct a full structural review of all buildings and remediating as necessary.

Dropping the ball like this is irresponsible, and even more insidious considering lawmakers haven’t announced an alternative plan.

Let’s face it: No one is going to purchase the 89-acre parcel in its current state. But if the county is planning on going down the auction route yet again — which boggles rational thought — a modest investment into sprucing up the property may prove to be a wise investment.

We also floated the idea of relocating a hunting lodge once used by Finch Pruyn timber executives from the Boreas Ponds shoreline to a section of the countyowned property.

Obviously that’s not going to happen. But it doesn’t mean that the idea of a visitors center doesn’t have legs.

The Essex County Board of Supervisors should at least consider applying for grants and building a visitors center of their own, much like Newcomb is in the process of doing.

Think about it.

The center could also be used as a staging area for a proposed trail network.

Imagine what snowmobiling would do to give local businesses a shot in the arm, especially once a land use plan is officially designated for the Boreas Pond Tract.

Such a place could also serve as a satellite office for organizations like Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism, who could use the space to promote the county’s tourism assets, pushing commuters on the Adirondack Northway inland to visit farms, brewpubs, art galleries and other attractions in the county.

But instead, the Essex County Board of Supervisors has chosen to do nothing.

Lawmakers need to zoom out from their little towns and start looking at Frontier Town as a county-wide asset and an opportunity for growth.

That’s the type of forward-thinking county taxpayers deserve.

GUEST VIEWPOINT

Swiss voters reject economic stupidity Jacob G. Hornberger> President of The Future of

Freedom Foundation jhornberger@fff.org

G

ive Swiss voters credit — well, at least 77 percent of them. In a recent national referendum, they overwhelmingly rejected a proposal that would have guaranteed each Swiss adult a monthly payment of $2,560 from the Swiss government. Just think: the payment was going to be free, just like Social Security, Medicaid, farm subsidies, food stamps, and education grants are free here in the United States.

Why do I say those Swiss voters are smart? After all, what’s smart about rejecting free money, right?

They’re smart because they understand that the generous monthly payment wasn’t going to be free at all. In order to make the payments, the government would have to first collect the money from the Swiss citizenry through taxes.

So let’s see: Under the plan a Swiss citizen would receive $2,560 in free money, but first he would have to pay $2,560 in monthly taxes so that the Swiss government would have the money to send him the $2,560. In actuality, he’d probably have to pay around $3,000 per month in taxes, because the government would have to pay salaries to government bureaucrats and incur other expenses for performing that service.

Do you see why I say that those 77 percent of Swiss voters are smart?

Of course, an American statist might come back and say, “Jacob, it didn’t have to be that way. The Swiss government could have taken all the money from the rich so that the money really would be free for most of the people receiving it.”

In fact, voters were not told how the government would be collecting the money to fund the generous monthly dole.

Maybe that didn’t matter to the Swiss.

Maybe the voters recognized the fundamental wrongfulness of using the government to take money from those to whom it belongs in order to give

it to people to whom it does not belong.

Maybe they realized that the more income and savings that are confiscated from the rich, the less capital there is coming into existence, which is one of the keys to a prosperous society and rising standards of living for everyone.

Maybe they felt like Curdin Pirovino, a Swiss industrial designer, who was quoted in a New York Times article on the vote entitled “Guaranteed Income for All? Switzerland’s Voters Say No Thanks”: “You cannot give a society the idea that money is available for doing nothing.”

Or maybe they just didn’t want to tamper with a system that, according to the Times, “has allowed the country to remain among those with the highest living standards in the world, even with a growing and aging population.”

In fact, get this: Switzerland’s unemployment rate is 3.5 percent, less than half the average in the European Union. Compare that to the chronic, permanent unemployment rate of 30–40 percent for black teenagers in the United States.

The reason for the low Swiss unemployment rate? There is no minimum wage in Switzerland. As I detailed in a recent blog post entitled “MinimumWage Smartness in Switzerland,” in 2014 76.3 percent of Swiss voters rejected a minimum wage for Switzerland. Unlike American voters and other European voters, Swiss voters clearly understood that a minimum wage locks many people out of the labor market, leaving them unemployed and in need of a government dole.

Our American ancestors certainly would have related to the Swiss people today. That’s because our ancestors brought into existence an economic system without income taxation, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, farm subsidies, education grants, minimum-wage laws, economic regulations, welfare, drug laws, foreign aid, a vast military-industrial complex, a national-security governmental apparatus, foreign military bases, and other programs that form the essence of the welfare-warfare state under which today’s Americans live.

What happened when the United States had no welfare-warfare state?

The result was not only the most prosperous society in history, especially for those at the bottom of the economic ladder, but also the most charitable.

Like those Swiss voters, our American ancestors were smart. Not so, unfortunately, for all too many modern-day Americans.

Jacob G. Hornberger is president of The Future of Freedom Foundation (www.fff.org) in Fairfax, Virginia.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

ThanksÊ toÊ thoseÊ whoÊ madeÊ DuckÊ DerbyÊ aÊ success To the Editor: On Sunday, June 19, the Wadhams Volunteer Fire Company held the sixth annual Boquet River Duck Derby at the Wadhams Strawberry Festival.

The Derby was held as a fundraiser for the Fire Company’s Community Fund, which we use to help support local families in times of need, and other community causes. 495 small plastic ducks were launched into a man-made river on Church Street in Wadhams and raced to the finish line, trying to avoid the obstacles in their path, vying for the three cash prizes-$250 for first place, $100 for second place and $50 for third.

Despite a logjam of ducks part way through the race that seemed to threaten whether any of them would actually reach the finish line, there were three clear winners.

In addition to the cash prizes, more than 50 additional prizes were donated by local businesses and artisans.

We would like to thank the following for their very generous donations, which helped to make this event such a success: Flower Designs by Tracey, Aerobie Fields Pottery, Adirondack Day Lilies, KELLEY Handweaving, Dogwood Bread Company, Ernie’s Market, Evelyn Brant, Juniper Hill Farm, Camp Dudley, Liberty Wadhams Soapworks, Lake Champlain Yoga and Wellness, Normandie Beach Club, Bruce Misarski and Bridgette Blemel, Northwaters and Langskib Wilderness Program, K and D Deli, Glen Estus, StoreyFit, Piano by Nature, Spring Hill Farm, TJ’s Country Candles, Life of Pie, Champlain Valley Film Series, NEW Health, Summit Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine, Brad Rascoe, Caroline Thompson, Petal Press and H20 Adventures.

We would also like to thank all those who bought tickets to participate in the derby and support the fire company, and those who came out to cheer on the ducks as they raced. We hope to see you all next year at the Boquet River Duck Derby.

Trump,Ê aÊ greatÊ president To the Editor: Trump has been right on many things this election cycle. We have too many illegals coming in with little to no skills. They are bringing diseases, some have a criminal history and they pose a serious security threat as Islamic terrorists seek to sneak in the back door.

Build that wall, Mr. Trump� He’s been courageous to emphasize Hillary Clinton’s criminal history over the past 40 years. It would be treasonous for a president not to see the signs and do nothing. But that’s exactly what Barack Obama has done. How many more attacks do we need to suffer before he regrets doing so little to protect the American people?

I don’t think that day will ever come.

Trump is right about China and global trade, too. No more bad trade deals, no more manipulation of China’s currency without repercussions. He will do everything in his power to unleash the economic power in the U.S. We need to allow businesses to create, build, invent and imagine a brighter tomorrow.

We need to get off the backs of those small companies who are the engine

of our economy. We need to encourage investment in great ideas. This will be done in a Trump Administration. And in order for all of this to take place a President Trump will restore and reinvigorate our military on the frontlines as well as taking care of our vets who need medical and psychological care.

He will be a great President� John Sharkey Ticonderoga

DecisionÊ toÊ dissolveÊ villageÊ shouldnÕ tÊ beÊ basedÊ onÊ taxesÊ alone To the Editor: I live in Port Henry, as does Sue McHone, whose letter supporting the dissolution of the Village of Port Henry was in the Saturday, June 18 issue of the Sun. I would like to offer reasons for supporting the keeping of the Village of Port Henry as balance for the McHone letter.

I did not grow up in Port Henry, but have been a part of and loved the village since the early 1970s. I cannot remember it as the lovely place Sue does.

I remember it first, as the lovely summer home I never wanted to leave and the joy I felt when I could remain here permanently.

True, it was great having such luxuries as a movie theater, but the truly important part of the village remains the same, its hillside of houses located on a lake, the people who live in the houses, having weathered the lost of their major source of income.

The greatest continuing wealth is just the fact of being a village, the only place where what you say has the most impact on your daily life. You can person-to-person discuss a problem with Ernie (your mayor) or Matt (your deputy mayor) or a trustee.

I respectfully disagree with Sue McHone. The past five years have brought a very real turn-around in not only the looks of the village, but costly infrastructural problems have been addressed and completed and other such projects are now in the work-stage.

We have had new businesses come in and prosper and others are on the verge of opening this summer.

Have there been setbacks?

Yes, particularly when nature gets nasty or a disturbed person becomes an arsonist.

TAXES� If taxes are the basis on which you decide to drastically change your life, prepare yourself for the very real possibility of a grand disappointment, particularly if you own only one property.

More to the point is how will your day-to-day life change or could change? I personally wish to keep the village because, in the last five years, I have seen more positive progress in the village than I have seen in the township.

My understanding is that the town’s infrastructure may be worse than the village’s, if so I do not want to dissolve into the possibility of having to pay my share of large and costly infrastructural projects.

There are more mutually beneficial ways, than dissolution, for solving both the town’s and the village’s financial needs. Besides, I am always suspect of anything the state wants as badly as it does for all villages to vanish.

Beer and wine tasting ban irks market founders

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

BOLTON LANDING — People affiliated with Bolton Landing farmers’ market are upset with the Bolton Town Board’s recent decision to ban wine tastings at their weekly venue, and they plan to appeal the decision.

In the meantime, the farmers’ market proponents will be seeking signatures on a petition to reverse the new regulation. The petitions will be available at their market held on Fridays from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m., beginning July 1.

The market’s location has changed this year from property of a local church to the town-

owned Cross Street parking lot unless the lot remains under construction, and if so, the market will be situated in the northern section of the Bolton town hall parking lot.

A resolution initiated by board member Susan Wilson and seconded by board member Cheryl Bolton at the board’s May meeting authorizes the use of the parking lots by the farmers market, but prohibits open containers of alcoholic beverages, thus banning beer and wine tastings.

Farmers’ Market coordinator Penelope Jewell said she had attended five recent meetings of the town board, and they council members didn’t reveal why they made the decision. It is unclear if the resolution indeed is valid.

“I don’t understand why they have done this,” Jewell said. She and another market proponent Bill Campbell said that farmers’ markets around the state regularly host wine and beer tastings, as do wine outlets and liquor stores.

Also, Gov. Andrew Cuomo has been a proponent of farmers markets which regularly showcase spirits handcrafted in New York — and various state-sponsored expos featuring tastings of wine, beer and spirits have been held often on state-owned property.

Campbell said that wine samplings, in tiny amounts, have been offered at the Bolton Farmer’ Market for five years without any incident or issue. He added that spirits tasting is expressly permitted by the state’s Alcohol

Beverage Control Board.

Without samplings at the market, he said, sales by the spirits vendors would likely fall by 50 percent, threatening their continued participation in the market.

Teresa Whalen, who’s launched and promoted various farmers’ markets in the region, said Wednesday she was quite surprised about the board’s decision.

“This prohibition doesn’t make sense. Farmers markets across the nation routinely host beer and wine tastings. The Bolton leaders will be hurting local enterprises,” she said.

“There’s no danger in these tastings whatsoever — the tiny cups contain only a very small amount of beer or wine.”

Rep. Stefanik speaks to Schroon Lake graduates “Keep working hard,” Stefanik says to Wildcat Class of 2016

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

SCHROON — Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) joined with family and friends, faculty and staff, to help celebrate the Class of 2016 at Schroon Lake Central School.

Stefanik was the commencement speaker for the school’s June 25 graduation, and started by thanking family who helped these students reach their goals.

“I want to thank the families of these students for joining us,” Stefanik said. “Their achievements wouldn’t be possible without your tireless support and this is an occasion to recognize your contributions too.”

To the students, Stefanik offered words of congratulations.

“Your hard work has paid off as you finish high school and stand ready to become adults and to move into the next phase of your lives,” she said. “Throughout your lives, the 15 of you have bonded through countless hours working on homework assignments, playing together on sports teams, prepping for exams, planning dozens of fundraisers and finally attending your high school prom. You all have become close and, as you enter the next chapter of your lives, you are all fortunate to

have each other to lean on for guidance and support.”

Stefanik also talked to the students about the next chapter of their life, wherever it may lead them.

“Each of you already has an important advantage going into this next chapter: You all know the value of hard work and the importance of going that extra mile each and every day in pursuit of your goals,” she said. “The opportunities that await you in the next chapter of your lives are endless and the next steps you will be taking as you enter adulthood will help set you on course to achieve your dreams. Many of you may not yet know what your next steps are, and I want you to know that is okay – your potential is limitless if you work hard.”

Stefanik added it is up to the new generation of young adults to help bring change to their communities.

“In my conversations with young people everywhere I go across our region, I see the ways they are changing the communities all around them,” she said. “Young people are changing the way our economy works. We see that here in our region, especially in Essex County, where new farms seem to be starting up every day. I am proud that we are an up and coming area for young people who want to do and accomplish big things. I hope the graduates in this room build on this important trend.”

Stefanik left the students with several nuggets of wisdom, including one she learned from her father.

“My dad used to and still says to me, ‘Don’t tell me how

smart you are Elise, tell me how hard you work,’” she said.

“There is no substitute for hard work. Each of you knows this – it’s what brought you to the finish line and with us here today... Keep working hard and there is no limit to what each one of you can do with the rest of your lives.”

Lake George town adopts vision for future, amends septic regulations

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — Two legislative initiatives which had prompted considerable controversy and triggered a political backlash were adopted recently by the town board without much public reaction.

The town of Lake George’s Comprehensive Plan, in preparation for several years, was adopted unanimously by the town board June 13. The plan outlines goals for the town’s development and proposes specific objectives to reach those goals.

In addition, the board ratified new septic regulations and simultaneously adopted a resolution requesting that the Adirondack Park Agency approve the pending changes to town law governing on-site septic systems.

Drafts of both the Comprehensive Plan and the new septic regulations had sparked recurring criticism from some citizens focused on preserving landowners’ rights, prompting heated discussions at town meetings. The dissention was deep enough to prompt a slate of candidates to run against incumbents for town board and town supervisor last year.

The Comprehensive Plan was drafted over

two years by a citizens committee. During that time, several committee members as well as some residents had objected to provisions recommending development and land-clearing restrictions as well as stormwater controls and promotion of green space.

After the citizens committee eliminated about 20 pages of such land-use and stormwater recommendations, several of the panel members quit in protest. The pared-down version of the Comprehensive Plan was the one adopted June 13 by the town board.

Lake George Director of Planning Dan Barusch, in his position since late summer 2015, offered a lukewarm endorsement of the Comprehensive Plan, saying it provides a vision for the town’s future.

“Does the plan represent a step forward?

Yes and No,” he said. “It provides some good recommendations for us to work off — but there’s nothing on land use and zoning, and that’s a pretty crucial element.”

Development of the Comprehensive Plan, drafted by The Chazen Companies, was bankrolled with a $37,000 matching grant.

At the board’s June meeting, Lake George Waterkeeper Chris Navitsky said the plan didn’t go far enough in its recommendations.

“The plan fails to consider land use, which is an important aspect, particularly re-development and low-impact development,” he said. Navitsky added that the plan also was “misleading” regarding the Lake George sewer system’s capacity. He noted the plant was presently inadequate and couldn’t accommodate much new development.

Beyond the general statements in the Comprehensive Plan regarding the town’s future, the adopted version recommends the prohibition of fracking, altering how Warren County occupancy tax is distributed, providing help for business start-ups, and promoting heritage tourism.

In other business conducted at the meeting, the board approved two occupancy tax grants — $3,000 towards the Lake George Polka Fest sponsored by the local charitable group Women in Need, and $575 towards the Lake George Skate Park.

Also, the board appointed Gary Moon to serve as chairman of the Lake George Zoning Board for the remainder of 2016. The town board also appointed Robert Risman to a seat on the town Zoning Board of Appeals. Risman has been serving as an alternate on the ZBA. Additionally, the board approved the town

submitting an application — jointly with the village — for a grant which would pay toward a plan strategizing how the town could become certified as a Climate Smart Community. On June 21, the village board unanimously adopted the same resolution.

Barusch said that Climate Smart Community certification would help the town obtain future grants while helping the municipality prepare for violent weather related to climate change. He said the town had already accomplished half of the tasks required for certification. Preparing the plan would cost $25,000 to $30,000 in total, he estimated.

Board members talked about installing electric vehicle charging stations around town would likely earn points toward Climate Smart Community certification. Barusch and board members commented that hosting charging stations would promote Lake George as a destination for those who drive electric vehicles.

Barusch said that only seven communities in the state are Climate Smart certified, and Lake George could be the first municipality in the Adirondacks to achieve the status.

“This Climate Smart certification would give us the badge of being a leader, to be in the forefront of sustainability,” he said.

WCS bands rate ‘Superior’ at Music in the Parks Festival WARRENSBURG — The Warrensburg Central School District high school band and jazz band traveled to Dorney Park in Allentown, PA, to participate in the Music in the Parks Festival, held from Friday, May 27 through May 29.

Both bands earned the top rating of “Superior” and were awarded first place trophies. Additionally, the concert band won the award for “Best Overall Concert Band.” The bands were judged on various elements including balance, musicality, accuracy, blend, and more.

After the students performed and rode the roller coasters and then traveled to New York City for the remainder of the weekend. The majority of the trip was music-based, with the students attending a performance of STOMP, followed by an interactive workshop with some cast members. They attended the musical “School of Rock,” and even had a “theater games” workshop with Tony Award nominee, Lou Libertore. They also visited the 911 Memorial.

Price Chopper, PTSA, Stewart’s Shops, Subway, and the Warrensburg Fire Company made generous donations that made the trip possible for the 49 attendees.

Faculty, parents and community praised by WCS seniors

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

a 1999 Warrensburg graduate who practices at Albany Medical Center as a pediatric gastroenterologist. Introduced to the seniors as “one of our best and brightest,” Infantino won many awards and scholarships in his studies preparing for his medical career.

Infantino said that like many superhero tales, an “ordinary beginning” can lead to an “extraordinary story.” He asked the seniors to consider that since WCS students and their friends all start in a similar place, life is what you make of it.

He urged the seniors to know themselves, realize their strengths and capitalize on them in order to achieve their goals.

“Like the heroes in the movies, find ways to impact the world,” he said, noting that they should aspire be a positive force in life, regardless of their particular job or career. Most important, he continued, is how a person treats others. He advised the departing seniors to be a positive, encouraging influence rather than “tearing down” people and their initiatives.

“May your stories be interesting, wondrous, and above all, happy,” Infantino said in conclusion.

WARRENSBURG — Nostalgia, gratitude and a dose of comedy accompanied the more customary advice contained in speeches delivered June 24 at Warrensburg High School’s 2016 graduation ceremony.

Valedictorian Beth Galusha’s speech, studded with quips, prompted smiles in the audience which was enduring considerable heat and humidity in the high school gymnasium. Early in her speech, she consoled the audience that they’d soon be able to leave the gym.

“I assure you that you can resume scrolling through Facebook and Twitter in a couple of hours,” she said.

Soon after, she thanked the assembled parents for their guidance and for being good role models through the lives of her classmates, citing the positive impact.

“As a ‘Thank You’ for taking care of us for all these years, we will save our money to put you in a good nursing home in a few years,” she said.

Gaulsha said that each of her classmates had faced trials and gained strength by overcoming them — with the help of their peers, parents and teachers. Galusha thanked the latter, who she would “go above and beyond” in their efforts to educate and guide students.

“Thank you for teaching us the many values that we’ll need as we embark on our next life adventure,” she said.

Quoting Ellen Degeneres, Galusha said, “Follow your passion, stay true to yourself, and never follow someone else’s path unless you’re lost in the woods.”

Principal Doug Duell also injected humor into his speech. Apologizing that he couldn’t sing a rap song like 2015 Valedictorian Noah Markwica did a year ago, Duell led the seniors in performing a “dab dance’ popularized by Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton.

Duell said the Class of 2016 members were talented, but he advised them to adopt helpful traits that took zero talent: being on time, and being passionate and diligent in one’s work.

In addition to his advice, Duell expressed his appreciation for the graduating students’ collective character.

“Thank you, Class of 2016, for all that you have done for our school and community, thank you for the academic and athletic accomplishments, thank you for the music, the voices, the parades, the vounteering, the performances, and thank you for being there during difficult times.”

Salutatorian Caitlin Vaisey directed appreciation to the WCS faculty, citing their positive influence, inspiration and encouragement.

“All of you have guided and molded me into the person I’m becoming and have helped me in more ways than you can imagine,” she said as she turned her thoughts toward her classmates.

“Remember your community, remember the bond you can have in a small town like ours, and realize how lucky you are to be a part of the Warrensburg school system.

High Honor Student Tom Schuettinger also noted the influence of community bonds in his speech.

“I am going to miss it here, the tiny town, the widespread use of comedy and sarcasm to keep every situation light,” he said.

“I will miss it, but looking forward all of us have a future ahead of us, on a path to make a change in this world,” Schuettinger added, encouraging his classmates to improve conditions for the next generation.

Superintendent of Schools John Goralski advised the soon-to-be graduates to shrug off disappointments and regrets —and embrace the joyful aspects of life.

He told the seniors to surround themselves with positive people and problem solvers.

“Choose to be happy,” he said. “Don’t let life’s setbacks get you down.”

Goralski and other school officials handed out the scholarships and awards. School board president Doug West and others passed out diplomas.

The WCS Mastersingers sang “The Time of Your Life. The high school chorus performed “Lean on Me. Appreciation was expressed to Class of 2016 advisors Jill Galusha, April Fiorentino, and Jessica LaPoint — three parents.

A video presentation of photographs of the seniors, including pictures as youngsters, evoked mirth and memories.

The commencement’s guest speaker was Dr. Ben Infantino,

Young Elms became exhausted and sank in thirty feet of water. Francis Holleran,

one of his three companions, narrowly escaped a similar fate. All three boys tried to save Elms but he became panic stricken and they were unable to quiet him sufficiently to get him to the shore.

Thomas Elms was the son of Arthur Elms, of South Glens Falls. He had a sister, Adeline and their mother died about a month ago.

Hedgehog killer shows his bounty Orlando Bryant, the Harrington Hill Hermit, came down into town recently to collect from Supervisor Milton Eldridge bounties for his last kill of hedgehogs and hen hawks. Altogether this year he has killed twenty-eight hedgehogs for which the county pays bounty of twenty-five cents a head and six hen hawks, for whose destruction fifty cents each is paid.

His income from this source, therefore, has been over ten dollars. This, the hermit states, is his only means of getting ready money and hedgehogs are almost extinct in his neighborhood while hen hawks are mighty hard to catch. A financial stringency is impend-

ing and the old man is racking his brain to devise ways and means to relieve the stress. (Note – I have been writing about Orlando Bryant for so many years that I feel I know him personally. Actually his specialty seems to have been stealing other people’s chickens. He had a wife named Lodema and died in the 1920’s at the Utica Insane Asylum.)

New novel details how Civil War collided with community Based on true events, Glenn Pearsall’s “Leaves Torn Asunder” will see a launch party July 9 in North Creek

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — Glenn Pearsall has been interested in local history since he was a teenager.

Stumbling across old foundations in the woods would kick up all sorts of questions: Who lived there? What were their lives like?

Pearsall, gripped by these questions, turned to writing as an outlet for this unfettered curiosity.

“There are a lot of compelling stories that needed to be shared,” said Pearsall, who has just completed his third book, “Leaves Torn Asunder: A Novel of the Adirondacks and the American Civil War.” The novel marks Pearsall’s first entry into the field of historical non-fiction.

Not much light has been shed on New York’s role in the Civil War, said Pearsall, much less the Adirondacks.

But the Empire State played a pivotal role in the conflict that cleaved the young nation in two. As the most populous Union state,

New Yorkers bought the most war bonds and provided the most soldiers.

The state was also home to a sizable peace movement, alongside other key figures.

“Most people don’t understand or appreciate that,” Pearsall. “I’m trying to fill part of that void.”

“Leaves” is the story of conflict seen through the fictional settlement of Nobles Corners, based loosely on Johnsburg, and of the man who helped bring the war to its doorstep through his activism.

As the debate on the legal-

ity of slavery began to reach a boiling point in the 1850s, local churches were hesitant to take a strong anti-slavery position, Pearsall said, because they didn’t want to upset their southern counterparts.

Enter Wesley Somerville, an outspoken abolitionist.

Paired with an itinerant preacher, Somerville was a leading voice for abolition in this hardscrabble stretch of the country, where folks eked out a meager living through sustenance farming and took pleasure in the simpler things, like church socials and apple pies.

But by the time the war reached this remote swath of the state, Somerville was too old to serve his country.

His character, said Pearsall, reflects the “sorrow in creating a war he couldn’t fight in.”

Once the broader events of the war are placed into motion, “Leaves” traces how the conflict affected the small community, weaving a narrative that flits between Nobles Corners and the battlefields of Virginia.

Following the Battle of Fort Sumter in April 1861, visits from a Union Army recruiter heralded excite-

ment for the young men in the settlement, who thought the war would be a grand adventure that would be over within months.

None had never been more than 15 miles from home. Few had given much thought about slavery. And most, if not all of them, had ever seen a black person until they marched south to head off the Confederate Army.

In fact, the newly-minted 22nd New York Volunteer Infantry were so green, they were astonished to learn of the existence of tides when arriving at New York Harbor.

Each of the main characters were based on actual people who lived in Johnsburg in the mid-1800s.

Pearsall brought them to life. Their mannerisms, thought processes and speaking evolved as the author dived into research materials, including diaries, letters, enlistment, cemetery and genealogical records.

“What impressed me the most was the strength not only of the men fighting for their lives on the battlefield, but also the courage and sacrifice of the wives and parents left back home on their hardscrabble Adirondack farms,” Pearsall said.

The author also conducted extensive research on the historical benchmarks that frame the novel, including the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 and John Brown’s Raid

in Kansas.

In fact, Pearsall, who runs a wealth management fund in Glens Falls as his day job, conducted two years of research before he even started to write.

“It simmered below my subconscious for probably three years,” he said. “One day, I got up and started writing — I wrote it in 10 weeks.

All of a sudden a lightbulb came on, and I couldn’t write it down fast enough.”

The book will officially be released with a launch party at the Tannery Pond Community Center in North Creek on July 9. The program will feature a panel discussion between Pearsall and Paul Larson, a producer at Mountain Lake PBS. Online sales have been promising so far, Pearsall said, and the novel has already received high praise from at least one reviewer — Pearsall’s high school English teacher, who he hasn’t seen since 1967.

“It has been said that truth is often stranger than fiction,” Pearsall said. “I also think truth often also makes a better story.”

Based on true events, Glenn Pearsall’s new book, “Leaves Torn Asunder: A Novel of the Adirondacks and the American Civil War,” chronicles the turmoil of the American Civil War in a small Adirondack town.

Local parishes to offer sacrament of Reconciliation

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — A local Catholic priest is encouraging the faithful to get back in touch with their spiritual side by offering a Vatican-issued sacrament over the holiday weekend.

Pope Francis has declared this as the Year of Mercy.

As part of the initiative, Catholics around the world are encouraged to extend forgiveness to others and accept the mercy of their creator.

Father John O’Kane will be offering the sacrament, which is similar to the ritual of confession, to parishioners in four area churches: St. Isaac Jogues in Chestertown and Hague; St. James in North Creek and St. Cecilia’s in Warrensburg.

While O’Kane offers confession weekly, he hopes the star wattage associated with the Pope’s edict will bring lapsed Catholics back to the Church.

As part of the conditions associated with the program, O’Kane must make himself available to perform the sacrament for 24 hours.

As part of the Vatican-designed Year of Mercy, Father John O’Kane will offer the sacrament of Reconciliation in four Warren County churches starting on July 3.

Unlike other priests, who have chosen to engage in a single marathon session — including Pope Francis himself — O’Kane is opting to break up his schedule into four hours daily over six days starting Sunday, July 3 at noon at St. Isaac Jogues in Chestertown.

O’Kane hopes offering the sacrament over the Fourth of July weekend will result in more engagement from tourists and seasonal residents.

Gone are the days, at least in O’Kane’s dio-

cese, when parishioners confessed their sins in whispering tones through wardrobe-type booths.

Discussions now take place face-to-face.

O’Kane, who became a priest in 2004, chalks declining church enrollment, in part, to a generational change and a tendency for the Church to be rigid in their thinking.

Catholics are also facing stiff competition from evangelicals, who often offer elaborate

pageantry and live music with their services.

As such, Catholics are looking to take a page from their playbook. “We’re kind of thinking those things out,” O’Kane said.

Pope Francis, he said, is trying to galvanize younger people into attending services. He’s also pushing Catholics to focus on gospel values, like helping the poor, sick and marginalized populations.

“We get a little rigid sometimes, and I think we need to get back to the gospel,” O’Kane said. “All of our teaching should be based on one commandment, which is love” The program runs until July 9.

RECONCILIATION SCHEDULE Sunday, July 3: Noon to 4:00 p.m. in Chestertown (St. Isaac Jogues) Monday, July 4: 4 to 8 p.m. in Hague (St. Isaac Jogues) Tuesday, July 5: 8 p.m. to midnight in Warrensburg (St. Cecilia’s) Thursday, July 7: Midnight to 4 a.m. in North Creek (St. James) Friday, July 8: 4 to 8 a.m. in Chestertown (St. Isaac Jogues) Saturday, July 9: 8 a.m. to noon in North Creek (St. James)
