Lack of interest prompts end for after-school care in N. Warren By Christina Scanlon

CHESTERTOWN — Dwindling enrollment in North Warren school district’s after-
school program caused its cancelation by the Board of Education last week. “It was very important for us to make this decision in July, so families would have opportunities to make other day care arrange-
ments before September,” said Elementary School Principal Shelley Dupuis. School officials say the program could return if enough interest is found. But recent enrollment numbers at the school and area
day care centers indicate that scenario is unlikely. Of those that had most recently used the program, only one child was enrolled in the

CHESTERTOWN — It was just a little

They painted lines to designate the badminton-sized court and garnered interest from a handful or more of players. A year later, they had about 25 on their
email list, with a dozen or so showing up regularly for games. Today they draw 25 to 30 faithful players to the courts three times a week, with 60 participants on the list. Some are year-round Chester residents, some are seasonal homeowners. Some are >> See PICKLEBALL | pg. 15

Skate park celebration this Saturday Skate demos, contests, vendors By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
LAKE GEORGE — Hundreds of people both local and hailing from a considerable distance will likely be drawn to Lake George’s Charles Wood Park soon for the christening of the Lake George Skate Plaza. The Grand Opening of the skate park, under development for nearly a decade, is set for 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday July 23. This fund-raising event features skateboarding demonstrations by expert athletes; skateboard, scooter and BMX bicycling competitions; free lessons (donations are encouraged); refreshments and vendors. Competitions, open to all, are to be held for the aforementioned wheeled sports, for a charge of $10 per competitor. For these competitions, equipment will be provided for those not bringing skateboards. Spectators are encouraged to watch at no charge.
Vendors are to be on site, offering accessories and clothing related to the three sports. Live and recorded music will be accompanying the action. Since the park was finished in early summer, it has been popular with youth, some of whom have traveled from many miles away to enjoy its attributes. Robby Bryant of Baldwinsville is one of the fans of the new plaza, which includes rails, concrete ramps and stairs. The plaza was designed by a professional skate park development enterprise. Bryant’s family has a summer home in the area, and he skateboards at the park four or five times per week during the summer months with friends, he said. “The plaza has a lot of flow to it, it’s wicked smooth,” he said. “I’m glad we finally have a skate park here.” Ayden Murphy of Hudson Falls offered a similar thought. “It’s a fine place to ride, dude,” he said. Fat Willies Ice Cream & Skate Shop in Lake George is a sponsor of Saturday’s grand opening, which is a fund raiser to construct the second phase of the skate plaza.

Bargain shoppers find treasures at The Priory’s 2016 By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
CHESTERTOWN — Sandy Farrell and her husband Dave of Stony Creek paused as they worked their way through the crowd swarming on the lawn of The Priory during the first day of the retreat center’s 26th annual Giant Garage Sale, held July 15 and 16. “Last year, I’d see something I wanted, and I’d go back to get it minutes later and it was gone,” Dave Farrell said. “This year, I’m just grabbing things right away if I have any interest in them.” Soon after, the Farrells headed back to their truck with everything from commercial stainless-steel warming pans and a deep-frying strainer, to a miniature banzai tree, a Looney Tunes Monopoly game — and a new ultra-heavy-duty railer hitch they got for only $1. Nick and Chris Laiacona of Bolton Landing with their friends Marc and Patricia Clement from New Hampshire were also headed back to their vehicles merely an hour or so
after the sale started. The items they found include a fancifully painted fish-shaped vintage water pitcher, a handcrafted model of a schooner sailboat, three decent golf clubs for $3, jewelry, silk scarves, books, and a set of dishes they bought for $100 that is valued at $1,000 by collectors. Nick Laiacona glanced at a two-tier, heart-shaped curio table that his wife bought for $2, and commented that they are long-time fans of The Priory’s annual sale. “Most of the things we have in our house, we bought here,” he said with a grin. Newly-hired Priory Executive Director Dustin Katona lowered his movie camera after videotaping the Laiaconas and Clements talking about their experience at The Priory’s renowned sale. Katona is not only a spiritual leader, but he’s a documentary filmmaker. “I’m impressed with the generosity of our donors and the willingness of so many people to travel so far to purchase these items to support The Priory,” he said, adding that for many months, dozens of volunteers had collected, sorted, priced and arranged about 10,000 items for the event.
The Priory’s sale was held on Friday and Saturday this year rather than Saturday and Sunday. Katona and other sale organizers credited a recent article published in Sun Community News for drawing an estimated 2,000 people to the sale on Friday, while many of their veteran shoppers were likely at work. — See more at suncommunitynews.com

Bolton K-5 named top of 85 districts in region By Christina Scanlon
christina@suncommunitynews.com
BOLTON — Bolton Central School’s kindergarten through fifth grade programs skyrocketed in rankings according the recently released Schools Report complied by the Albany Business Review, landing the school top honors for 2016. From a 2015 ranking of 20th place to first place, Bolton knocked Tesago Elementary School, part of the Shenendehowa district, to the second place spot. The Bolton district is one of the smallest considered in the report, ranking a total of 85 schools districts in 11 counties in the Capital Region. While the award recognizes the elementary grades as a whole, it was a different approach that Superintendent Michael Graney believes resulted in the marked improvement.
“We really take an individualistic approach,” he said when asked if there was anything that contributed to the success. “We are small enough to look at each individual student. It sounds simple, but it’s very focused on meeting their needs,” he said. Determining those needs comes every spring, when the faculty creates goals and a plan for the following school year. “We have to ask tough questions. It’s a living, breathing process,” he said. That annual evaluation may alter what they do each year, based on the students’ strengths and weaknesses, but it’s not just based on test scores. “We have a community summit in March. We take feedback from our staff, students, community and stakeholders,” he said. The school also has a steering committee, Graney said, “to direct how we are going to get there.”
With 85 districts in the mix every year, all with eyes on improvement, slight shifting in the ranks is expected. If all schools make improvements, however, rankings wouldn’t see drastic movement, so Bolton’s jump could be considered rare. Schools with a smaller student population, however, could see larger swings in either directions as one or two students’ test scores have a larger impact overall. Bolton’s first place spot leaves nowhere to go but down. “We will do well, we’re just going to keep working hard,” said Graney when asked if he was concerned with the future year’s results. “We are happy with the recognition, but we don’t think it’s the end all be all. If we drop to two or three, it’s okay. We really work hard and won’t want to rest on [the ranking]. We work each year to improve. That’s always part of our strategic plan.”
The rankings are compiled using data for math and English test scores for grades three, four and five, along with science test scores in grade four from the 2014-15 school year. Last year’s report found those districts with the highest rankings overall had the highest performing elementary schools, as well. Of the top 25 elementary schools last year, Bolton, ranked 20, and Menands, ranked 21, were the only two elementary schools that were part of districts that did not place in the top 10. Bolton District was ranked 13th last year, and bumped up to 12th overall this year. In additions to test scores, graduation rates factor into district rankings.

Seeking money for Lake George sewer plant upgrades, local leaders host tour By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
LAKE GEORGE — Area community leaders and environmental advocates hosted state officials recently — conducting a tour of both Lake George sewer treatment plant and an excursion on the lake to emphasize how their financial help is needed to curb degradation of lakewater quality. The July 12 tour — which included a boat cruise to sites on the lake where work is progressing to eradicate invasive species — was held for two regional economic development officials with the intent of boosting prospects of obtaining state grants to help pay for a comprehensive reconstruction of the Lake George Village wastewater treatment plant. Lake George officials and environmental advocates are seeking $9 million or more to help pay for the re-engineering of the sewer plant which dates back to the mid1930s. The reconstruction of the plant is expected to cost about $17 million. The day’s events, arranged by the Lake George Watershed Coalition with members of the S.A.V.E. Lake George Partnership participating, was conducted a few weeks after Dave Decker, CEO of the Coalition, submitted a request to the state Environmental Facilities Corp. for $4.5 million towards the sewer plant’s reconstruction. In addition, Decker is now preparing applications to submit by a July 29 deadline, seeking up to $2 million from the NYS Department of
Lake George Wastewater Treatment Plant supervisor Tim Shudt (second from left) explains the steps of processing sewage to Capital Region Economic Development Council CEO Mike Yevoli (second from right) and Arnold Will of Empire State Development Corp. (right) during a July 12 tour of the sewer plant. The event was conducted to inform the state officials how the $17 million of sewer plant upgrades are urgently needed to protect the lakewater’s purity — and to help secure state grants to bankroll the project. Local leaders and environmental advocates are seeking $9 million or more from the state towards the plant upgrades. Among those participating in the tour were Lake George Waterkeeper Chris Navitsky (at left), Dave Decker of the Lake George Watershed Coalition (center rear). Lake George officials are seeking $9 million or more to help pay for the re-engineering of the sewer plant, which dates back to the mid-1930s.
State and $5 million from the state Department of Environmental Conservation. Taking the educational excursion and listening intently to the evidence of how wastewater effluent is polluting local groundwater and seeping into Lake George, were Capital Region Economic Development Council Michael Yevoli and Empire State Development Deputy Regional Director Arnold Will. Underscoring their point about how pollution from both the wastewater plant and road salt pollution must be curbed, Fund for Lake George Executive Director Eric Siy and Lake George Waterkeeper Chris Navitsky described a looming “tipping
point” after which lake protection would become virtually unachievable. “The consequences could be disastrous,” Siy told Yevoli and Will, citing not only the impending threat to the lake’s ecology, but the potential resulting plunge in tourism revenues, decline in economic vitality and reduction of property values. “People love Lake George, and that’s the reason it’s the hub and lifeblood of the $2 billion regional economy,” Siy said. Navitsky showed data gleaned from an 18-monthlong scientific study showing how groundwater polluted with the effluent aging wastewater treatment plant was seeping into Lake George.
Siy and Navitsky explained to Yevoli and Will how three main objectives needed to be pursued to protect the lake — re-engineering of the aging sewer plants serving the towns of Lake George, Bolton and Hague; upgrades to the 1,000 or so private septic systems treating sewage from lakeside homes and businesses, and reduction of stormwater and road salt pollution of the lake. In emphasizing the threats to the lake, Navitskyy noted that salt levels in lakewater had tripled over the past several decades and chlorophyll concentrations had increased by a third during that time span. In 2014, The state Department of Environmental Conservation issued a consent

order mandating that the village upgrade their sewer plant to reduce the nitrates in the plant’s effluent. During the July 12 tour of the wastewater treatment facility, plant operator Tim Shudt explained that the current outdated treatment process was inadequate to remove nitrates that are polluting the lake. He told state officials how the installation of a “sequence batch reactor” at the plant — the key element of the plant’s reconstruction — would efficiently mix bacteria with sewage to release the nitrogen as a gas, removing most all of it from the plant’s
effluent. Participating in the tour, Lake George Park Commission Executive Director Dave Wick said the plant re-engineering was critical to protection of the lake. “The type of new sewage treatment technology now under consideration versus what is here now, is the difference between night and day,” he said. “Upgrading the plant is a ‘no-brainer’ and it’s top priority for protecting the lake.” During the boat cruise, Wick gave detailed explanations to Yevoli and Will of the ongoing efforts to stem the spread of invasive species. He narrated the visits via boat to Cannon Point Bay where milfoil was being harvested by contracted divers and to Sandy Bay where Asian Clams were being inventoried by volunteers. After the tour, Yevoli said the trip to Lake George had provided valuable information, and Lake George Mayor Robert Blais said the tour had been productive. “We had a great day,” Blais said. “I hope we convinced our guests today how valuable Lake George is, not only to us but the entire state of New York — and I hope we’ve shown them what we’ve already done to protect the lake what needs to be accomplished, how we should all be partners in the expenses involved with the lake’s protection, and what our dreams are for the future.”

Enough already
nough already with the senseless shootings and assassinations of innocent law enforcement officers. To what end do protestors think this will, in any form or fashion, help their cause to lessen police suspicion of black individuals? Brave men and women fight everyday to preserve our freedoms. Many have given their lives defending the American Flag so that protesters may burn that same flag in defiance of what our nation stands for. While many do not agree with that act of defiance, we respect their right to demonstrate their frustrations, by desecrating the symbol of our nation. But ambushing and killing police officers because you disagree with their methods is nothing more than a cowardly and despicable act of murder. Every government leader and every protest group must strongly condemn these acts and the individuals who carry them out. Furthermore organized groups that encourage or even claim to understand or sympathize with the killing of any government officials, and who repeatedly chant death rhetoric and incite these actions versus allowing the judicial system to deal with heavy handed police officers who have overstepped their authority, should be outlawed as subversive terrorist organizations. The time has long since passed to put an end to these actions, as each of these events only increases the chance that law enforcement will be more on edge when conducting an arrest and the likelihood of another unthinkable fatal shooting. As I write this column Sunday night, we are hearing reports of 30,000 paid protesters converging this week in Cleveland to protest the at the Republican National Convention. Reports are protesters will be paid to show up and paid an additional stipend if they get arrested. I can’t imagine a worse recipe for disaster. I hope by the time you read this column those protests resulted in no deaths or injuries. Given the intensity of growing anger in this nation around the political posturing of both sides, it seems we are evolving into a highly combustible environment and cooler heads must prevail. Respect for our laws and law enforcement must prevail or we will find ourselves no better off than the lands governed by terrorists in third world countries. It’s up to those of us who abide by the law to remain steadfast in encouraging peace and order within the accepted norms of society. It starts and ends with respect and faith in our system, for without it we are left with nothing but anarchy. Dan Alexander is CEO of Sun Community News.

Cuomo a no-show at Adirondack Challenge
I
n what has become a new summer tradition, a cavalcade of government officials descended on Indian Lake in the central Adirondacks this weekend for the 2016 Adirondack Challenge, the weekend-long state-sponsored event designed to promote tourism. All the familiar hallmarks were present at the event, which is now in its fourth incarnation. There was the good-natured athletic events with predetermined winners. There was the six-mile hike to OK Slip Falls, part of the newly minted Hudson Gorge Wilderness Area acquired by the state and recently opened for visitation for the first time after over a century of private ownership. There was the reception featuring local food, drink and white linen suits. And of course, there were the encomiums from officials to Gov. Andrew Cuomo and his administration for the investments in the region. This year’s tourism numbers are in. The biz is at record-high levels in the Empire State, according to a report released by the governor’s office. Some of the key figures: The economic impact of the industry is now at $102 billion, an increase of 25 percent since 2010, the year before the governor took office. Industry-related jobs have risen 21 percent since that same time period, outpacing the rest of the state’s labor market, while visitor spending was up 26 percent. All in all, the number of domestic and international visitors to the Empire State is projected to have grown more than 19 percent since 2010 B.A. — Before Andrew — to nearly 234 million total visitors in 2015. Those trends are reflected in the Adirondacks. Last year, the region brought in more than $1.3 billion in direct visitor spending, an increase of more than 14 percent since 2010. Regional tourism generated $162 million in state and local taxes in 2015, supporting more than 21,000 jobs and $612 million in labor income in 2015. This is all easy to applaud. While we’re unsure of how much can be directly attributed to the state’s investment as opposed to global trends and other economic factors, hey, we’ll take any good news we can get. With that said, the event was missing one critical element: Gov. Cuomo, whose public schedule had him in New York City.
The day before saw him spend the day in Syracuse, where he introduced a marketing campaign for the New York State Fair and engaged in a canoe race against the Syracuse Media Group. Now, to be fair, perhaps the governor had enough fun in the sun. Or perhaps he felt that the event, now in its fourth year, was well established and could develop a life of its own — or at least could be buoyed by his chief emissary, Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul, a frequent and well-liked visitor to the region. But the governor’s absence in Indian Lake robbed the event of one of its intended purposes, which is for local lawmakers to mingle, network and lobby for Adirondack issues with officials from across the state — including its chief executive. Now is a time when several critical issues are swirling around the Park, chief among them, the upcoming land use classification process for the Boreas Pond Tracts, the newest acquisition in the state’s land holdings. The fight between motorized access will almost certainly make or break the futures of some of these communities, including the Five Towns at the center of the parcel, who arguably have the most riding on these discussions. Furthermore, two of the chief agencies governing life here — the Adirondack Park Agency and the state Department of Conversation — are both under new leadership. So what gives? The governor also bailed on the winter installment of the event, held in March. Despite the pageantry, which can be cheesy at times, the Adirondack Challenge is an innovative and unique idea at its core. But even if only for the symbolism, the governor’s attendance at this event is important. While the governor’s absence can be chalked up to any number of unrelated issues, the optics are just wrong. For the most part, Cuomo has served the region well. Tourism promotion, broadband and infrastructure development and his moderate influence steering land use debates are all policies that will undoubtedly raise the fortunes of a region which has traditionally felt overlooked by Albany. We just missed his wild eyed, toothy grin in this year’s “winners” circle. The Sun Community News Editorial Board is comprised of Dan Alexander, John Gereau, Keith Lobdell and Pete DeMola.

IsÊ thisÊ theÊ endÊ of Ê ourÊ republic? To the Editor: President Obama recently joked about the end of our republic. But what if he wasn’t joking? In spite of Obama being dishonest and unlawful, and Hillary being corrupt, dishonest and for sale on the world market, perhaps their pledge to fundamentally transform America will actually work. What would it take to cripple, then transform our republic of America into something else? You could start by making our Constitution and laws irrelevant by illegal executive actions, loading the Supreme Court with progressive liberals, and turning the U.S. Attorney General office into a politically driven social justice agency, whereby our nations top law enforcement official couldn’t be trusted to enforce the law; then incite chaos by tolerating some anarchy in the streets while demonizing our police; ignore a rapid increase in crime and murder in large cities; tolerate illegal alien immigration and sue border states that try to prevent it; fast track tens of thousands of non-resident Muslims into our country without background checks; accept the murder of our citizens in public places by illegal aliens and Muslim terrorists as unavoidable; allow sanctuary cities to break federal laws by harboring criminal illegal aliens; attempt to provide access to our Social Security network to illegal aliens; incite hate, distrust, and killing of one another though political and racial discord; significantly increase the cost of health care for the working middle class so as to provide free health care to others including illegal aliens; redistribute income from workers to others who haven’t earned it including illegal aliens; mandate diversity; erode our property rights which cascades into other areas of personal rights; plus degrade our future thru excessive government regulation and debt which has doubled on Obama’s watch and will pass $20,000,000,000,000. Will these things that are actually happening lead to peace and love or
COMMENTARY will chaos and disorder be the likely consequence of it? Human nature and history would suggest the latter. By all appearances, Obama and Hillary play checkers while other world leaders and radical Muslims play chess. The colossal folly of invading Libya, causing Benghazi, the Russian reset button, and the bizarre Clinton email operation are but a few examples of this, yet their dreams for our own country could materialize in spite of their incompetence and willingness to deceive us.

HillaryÊ victimÊ of Ê prolongedÊ GOPÊ smearÊ campaign To the Editor: Mr. Irwin’s hatred of President Obama, Hillary Clinton and Democrats is his right. However, he should not pass on false information. President Obama has made numerous accomplishments despite enormous obstruction by Republicans: Getting Osama bin Laden, saving General Motors and Chrysler and keeping thousands of American jobs, just to name a few. Mr. Irwin thinks that the 69 million Americans who voted for President Obama are “dumb”. I voted for President Obama. I am not dumb. For Mr. Irwin’s information, the night after President Obama was elected, the Koch brothers and many other billionaires met and amassed $889 million to stop and obstruct the president from gaining any legislation to move the country forward. (Read “Dark Money” by Jane Mayer). These are the people Mr. Irwin foolishly supports, the Koch brothers and their billionaire friends, people like General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt, who paid zero in federal income taxes in 2016 (zero!), while receiving $3.3 billion in tax refunds. Mrs. Clinton has been vilified for 25 years by the Republican propaganda lying machine. They are very good at lying. They dislike her because she is smart, she is a Democrat, she knows the government better anybody in office today and she is a woman. They fear her. Benghazi? Obviously Mr. Irwin neglected to read my last letter, citing the many embassy attacks during the Reagan and Bush administrations. Convenient amnesia? Politifact,the Pulitzer-winning fact checking project, determined for example, that Hillary was actually the most truthful candidate (of either party) in the 2016 election season, and in general, Politifact has determined that Hillary is more honest than most politicians they have tracked for years.

ith solar technology changing so rapidly, it can be difficult to tell the difference between truth and common misconceptions. Here are a few facts to debunk these myths. MYTH: New York doesn’t get enough sun for solar. FACT: Solar irradiation levels vary across the US, but every state receives enough sunlight to make solar a good investment. Consider that Germany leads the world in residential solar - six times the installed capacity of the U.S. - with a solar resource roughly equivalent to that of Alaska. MYTH: Solar is too expensive, only rich people can afford the upfront costs. FACT: The price of solar technology has fallen steeply in the past several years, and solar technology has never been as affordable as it is right now. Most homeowners choosing solar are middle-income families looking for ways to help keep household costs down. New York State offers an incentive to everyone installing solar at $.40 /watt. Beginning this year, the state has also introduced a program that raises the incentive to $.80 /watt for households with incomes less than 80% of the median county income. Federal and state tax credits may further reduce cost by as much as 55% depending on how much tax is owed by the homeowner. On average, solar panels return two to four times their cost in saved electricity bills and pay for themselves completely in 7 to 15 years, while continuing to produce energy for 25 years or more. MYTH: With solar I won’t receive an electric bill. FACT: Most modern solar systems are grid-tied which means they are connected to the electrical grid. A system generates power when the sun is shining and excess flows back into the grid through a process called “net metering” – solar production spins your meter backwards and you build credits against your electric bill that are used at night or on overcast days. You will continue to receive a monthly bill from your utility company. The amount owed to the utility will vary from month to month depending on your credit balance and usage. Regardless of how much electricity you generate and use, you will still be charged the basic service charge each month. MYTH: Solar system cost is based on a home’s size. FACT: Solar systems are custom designed with particular attention paid to the home’s roof orientation and slope, as well as any shading. Each home is carefully assessed to maximize system production based on the most recent electric bill. A good way to determine the size array your home will need, as well as the cost, is to sign up for a free, no obligation site assessment at www.solarizetrilakes.com or call 891-5212.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
ThankÊ youÊ volunteers To the Editor: Adventure Sports Rafting Company would like to give a huge thank you to the Indian Lake Volunteer Fire Department. Our building, which we operate our rafting company out of was recently involved in a structure fire. Though the damage was substantial to the building, without the quick response of our neighbors at Pines Country Store who spotted the fire and the immediate arrival of the Indian Lake Volunteer Fire Department the loss would have been horrific. With many historical buildings being located so closely together here in the center of town, fire could have quickly spread to surrounding buildings resulting in a devastating loss for our community. Much of our town was destroyed by a fire very reminiscent of this in the early 1920s. Not only was the quick response of our dedicated firemen a key factor in saving the building but the location of the fire hall was also a pertinent factor. With plans in the works for the Fire Station to be housed where the grocery store used to be here in Indian Lake, the new location is a strategic property to do so. With homes and businesses being just steps from each other response times are of the utmost importance for containment of a fire so it will not spread to other structures which are so close. The Indian Lake Volunteer Fire Department is the “heart of our town” and we once again would like to say thank you for what you have done, what you do and what you will bring for the future of our great town. John Starling Adventure Sports Rafting Company Indian Lake
ViewpointÊ wasÊ misleading To the Editor: I have followed many articles written by Keith Lobdell for years, enjoying our personal conversations, his candor, his sense of humor, his love of the North Country but mostly the down to earth local way he reports it. So when I read his guest viewpoint about the Essex County fairgrounds I was very upset since the article lead me to believe the county board of supervisors swayed by the chairman of a task force was giving up on the fairgrounds and tearing buildings down with little or no notice. I felt like such a fool when I barged into my town supervisor’s office (who happens to be the task force chair) to make myself heard as to why his task force was doing the fairgrounds so wrong. He politely informed me about the procedures and how everything came about and why, insisting that people were notified, options discussed and options were still on the table. This explanation was not the dire story I read. Mr. Gillilland was very surprised to read the article and the way it was written as he was never contacted by the reporter. He had not been asked about how, what, where, when or why the things being done were happening. In fact as we discussed the article it became clear that there were no quotes from anyone mentioned, no opposing view, no gathered facts from them. Mr. Gillilland and his wife are farmers and deeply involved in the Essex County Fairgrounds, the fair itself and its continued success. He also informed me he volunteered to lead the task force as he felt (I’m sure with his wife’s influence) he had a vested interest in its success as a farmer, a horseman and cattleman. I recall scuttlebutt a year or so back that some supervisors wanted to get rid of the fairgrounds and sell/give it to the town of Westport. That would be a financial disaster for the town to upkeep and run. Yes the Midway Diner is gone and if other changes are coming that will insure we still have a fairgrounds and fair for another 168 years, then I am for it. Win Belanger, Willsboro
Sen.Ê JosephÊ McCarthyÊ tacticsÊ beingÊ used The the Editor: “I have a list, a wonderful list, of names of people who may do harm. I can put anyone on it and I do not have to prove they have done anything wrong. It is kept secret until they try and do something, and then I spring it on them. It is not hard to get on this list. There are many ways, like: Their politics are wrong (they disagree with me.) They have made a neighbor mad. There are no consequence’s to false reports. Have been in the wrong places with the wrong people. Can’t have people hanging out with who ever they wish. Wrong reading material. Wrong kind of mail. Visited with wrong countries. Doesn’t matter why they were there.
I get to use this list to cause people to lose their jobs, their homes, any rights they thought they had. Once on the list you lose your rights. Their friends desert them, turn on them, falsely accuse them, just to save themselves, even though they feel the charges are false. Oh this is fun! I get to monitor their speech and shut it down if they say anything I disagree with. Even if I find out they are not a threat I never take them off the list. Where there is smoke, there’s fire. You can never take a chance. Due process rights, don’t make me laugh! The only thing I can’t do is to stop them from buying a gun. A communist should not be allowed to possess a firearm!” — Senator Joseph McCarthy, 1950
in place to keep people out who don’t belong in there. We have cleaned up a lot of the items that were being stored there that the county knew nothing about. 5. Lastly the Fair Board and Ag Society have been on board with the direction the task force has taken. In closing the county has not given up on the fairgrounds. Rome was not built overnight, the fairgrounds had become an afterthought for a lot of years, so changes will be slow, but changes are coming to make this piece of county property attractive and a central location for future events.
This is how it starts, a list, then our rights die. There has been much made about the no-fly or terrorist watch list. We should use it to stop people from buying guns. I was lead to believe that a person was innocent until proven guilty. These lists prove nothing, they make unproven accusations and cause innocent people harm. We have no idea how many of us are on it. There may be someone reading this who is on this list and not be aware of it. There is no place in an open society for such secret lists and those who would use them to deny citizens their rights. This is not how our country is suppose to work. If we have to fight this war on terror by taking a page out of Joseph McCarthy’s playbook then we have already lost! I find it fascinating how those who condemn McCarthyism are the first to use his tactics. Keep in mind, Senator Edward Kennedy was at one time on this list. Took him a week to get his name off it. At one time, 72 members of Homeland Security were on it and at least one four old. Only a fool would trust this list and those who would use it. Raynard Corrow Indian Lake
To the Editor: The U.S. Forest Service was established in 1905 to manage the nation’s “forest reserves” to ensure that the United States would always have adequate timber and clean water resources. Those forest reserves were first formally recognized in 1881, shortly before the forest reserves were proposed in NY, but established by law in 1891 when Congress placed the national forest reserves under the control of the Department of the Interior. President Roosevelt transferred them to the Department of Agriculture upon the establishment of the Forest Service. The U.S. Forest Service is a unit under the U.S. Department of Agriculture, a logical location as its initial purpose was to raise trees. That said, at no time has the U.S. Forest Service been “the agency that oversees the national parks” as you stated in your 16 July Editorial concerning the Rainbow Family. Yellowstone National Park, the very first national park in the world, was established in 1872. Congress placed Yellowstone, and all subsequent national parks, under the aegis and management of the U.S. Department of the Interior, a separate Cabinet level department from the Department of Agriculture. In 1916, the National Park Service was created as a bureau within the Department of the Interior. In subsequent years, lands under the control of other Departments, such as the Department of Agriculture and the War Department, have been placed under the aegis of the National Park Service by executive order of the President or by the Congress.
PoorÊ choiceÊ of Ê photo To the Editor: I was very disappointed with in the photo you chose for the front page of your July 9th edition of The Sun. I feel that the photo had absolutely nothing to do with the reason for a Fourth of July parade. Unfortunately, many of our youngsters haven’t a clue as to why we celebrate the Fourth because they think it is all about water guns and free candy. Well, it is not. July 4, 1776, was the day our country’s founders declared their independence from the absolute tyranny of King George, III. When our children and grandchildren ask why we celebrate this special day, we need to tell them what happened. We need to tell them that our founders decided it was worth the risk of war to win the freedom to govern themselves. We should celebrate this day to honor those who fought so hard for our freedom and honor those who continue to fight for our freedom. I believe a photo of children waving American flags, or a photo of veterans who have proudly served our country would have been far more patriotic and suitable for your front page. Richard A. Nadeau, Ticonderoga
ClearingÊ theÊ airÊ onÊ fairground To the Editor: In response to the editorial written by Keith Lobdell that appeared in the July 16 edition of The Sun, I would like to correct some things. As a member of the fairgrounds task force, believe me there is no intent to sell the grounds, in fact that couldn’t be further from the truth. The task force mission is to bring the fairgrounds back to a usable commodity that can not only be used for the fair, but to make it attractive to bring other events to the venue. One of our first tasks was to dispel any myths and inaccuracies about ownership of buildings and alleged contracts. There has been a lot of handshake agreements and assumptions but nothing in writing. 1. As far as the Midway Diner, it was not going to be open this year because the building was falling in around itself and the individual running it could not get it fixed, therefore for liability reasons it was taken down and was offered to the individual to place a vendor cart there. They were informed each step of the way. That building in fact was built by the Mason Brothers several years before Mr. Hommes took over. 2. Ike Tyler, while not a member of the task force, has sat in on committee meetings all along, as can any supervisor. You’re right that he has the most skin in the game and that’s why he has been included in these meetings. 3. Opening up county property to let some build on it opens up many other issues we are trying to avoid. If the need arises and the fairgrounds become successful then maybe we can rebuild these buildings to be leased during events. 4. The task force has taken many steps, working with DPW to clean up a lot of the areas on the grounds; we have put gates

SettingÊ theÊ recordÊ straight To the Editor: I want to thank Bert Windle of Putnam Station for thanking me for my service. Mr. Windle like John Sharkey is entitled to his opinion but when he makes statements such as “both (Hillary and her husband) have been disbarred” his opinion becomes fantasy. Mrs. Clinton’s license to practice law lapsed in 2002, but not because she was disbarred or otherwise sanctioned for professional misconduct. Mrs. Clinton simply stopped practicing law and didn’t need a license. Had Mr. Windle done a little investigating he would have found this was another rumor stated by zealous people. In my opinion’s I never said one had to serve our country before becoming president. I did say Trump was a draft dodger who got deferments while others served. I also made mention that Trump keeps beating the drums of war and wanting to send others to die for his causes. When comparing Trump’s morals with Bill Clintons with regard to women I believe both have bad track records when it comes to infidelity. Why Bill Clinton is mentioned is beyond me as it is Hillary Clinton who is running for president. I would submit that Mr. Windle calling Hillary Clinton a liar is like the pot calling the kettle black. His statements are anything but the truth and in fact they belong in a fiction novel. Trump an asset to the USA? How can one call him an asset when thousands lost their jobs due to his bankruptcies? What about his hiring of illegal’s at his golf club? As for being in a foxhole with Trump it wouldn’t happen, as he wouldn’t be there. Mr. Windle closes his opinion letter with “God Bless America” but I wonder how he can make this statement while standing up for a foul-mouthed tyrant? A man who belittles women and uses four letter words to make his point. No Mr. Windle, I won’t be voting for this poor choice for a human being and I won’t stop writing the truth. My opinion is worth no more than yours but my words will always carry the truth. You and John Sharkey have every right not to like anyone but you don’t have the right to tell outright lies. Man up and just say you are one of the zealous people who would never give credit to anyone who disagrees with your political thinking. When we talk about Americans who were assets perhaps Nelson Rockefeller or Andrew Carnegie would be better choices. God Bless America. Gary Philip Guido, Ticonderoga

Ranches, Rodeos & Wranglers Reunion returns this weekend By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
LAKE LUZERNE — Former cowboys, cowgirls and other employees of the area’s three-dozen dude ranches active over the last half of the 20th century — as well as enthusiasts of their legacy — are gathering this Friday and Saturday in Lake Luzerne to celebrate the rich heritage of these guest ranches. The 2016 edition of Ranches, Rodeos and Wranglers Reunion is set for Friday July 22 through Saturday July 23, to be held primarily at Painted Pony Rodeo & Longhorn Saloon off Rte. 9N. For three years, the Wranglers event has received considerable attention, with cowhands and rodeo competitors from decades past convening from afar, reminiscing about their colorful experiences at the region’s 36-or-so dude ranches from the late 1940s through the early 1970s. These cowhands shared tales of their
exploits and those of many other notorious wranglers who worked at these once-popular western-themed ranch resorts. This year’s installment of the cowhand gathering features, on both Friday and Saturday, a Meet & Greet reception at 5 p.m. with exhibits of cowboy memorabilia, a barbecue buffet at 6 p.m. and a rodeo beginning at 8 p.m. — all at Painted Pony Ranch. The Wrangler fest starts off Friday at 9 a.m. with “Cowboy Coffee,” conversation and memorabilia sharing on the front porch of the Hadley General Store — at the Corner of Rockwell St. and Stony Creek Road in Hadley. A similar session of reminiscing over java is set for 9 a.m. Saturday at the Stony Creek Market & Cafe at the Stony Creek crossroads. This latter gathering is followed by a Heroes & History presentation from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday at Gailey Hill Schoolhouse Museum in Lake Luzerne. The museum’s program features noted cowboy poet and storyteller Mark Munzert and
singer-songwriter Kimmy Hudson-Munzert, renowned for their performances across New York State as well as in Texas and elsewhere out west. At noon in the museum, inductees to the Adirondack Cowboy/Cowgirl Hall of Fame will be announced and honored. On display at the Schoolhouse Museum will be a tribute to cowboy, trapper and totem-pole carver Johnny Thorpe who died earlier this year — and another tribute honoring Jack and Nancy West, managers of Hidden Valley Ranch and Alan Mitcheltree the owner of the venue. Also to be featured is vintage memorabilia from Bennett’s Riding Stables and the Longhorn Ranch. Late Saturday afternoon, the gathering returns to the Painted Pony Ranch, with reminiscing and tale-swapping beginning at 5 p.m. at the Painted Pony’s outdoor pavilion and inside their adjacent Longhorn Saloon. The aforementioned barbecue dinner begins at 6 p.m. followed by the rodeo. Incidentally, Satur-
day July 16 is National Cowboy Day. The Painted Pony Rodeos are competitions sanctioned by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. Friday’s is open to all competitors and Saturday’s is for PRCA members earning points toward a national championship. Both begin at 8 p.m.
‘History on Hudson’ events The Wranglers Reunion is being held this year in conjunction with “History on the Hudson Day” in Lake Luzerne, also on July 23, event organizer and former cowgirl Pam Morin said. This parallel event, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Rockwell-Harmon Cottage Park, includes an informal picnic, a presentation about 1600s Native American Kateri Tekakwitha at the Kinnear Miuseum nearby, as well as vintage soldier re-enactors appearances, exhibits and a shooting demonstration by Walt Ulrich.

Dupuis said the board’s decision was based on the deficit in which the program was running and not placing a burden on taxpayers to foot the bill for the program that was serving very few children. The principal said while canceled, a reopening of the program could be considered. “If there is a huge need, we will revisit,” she said.

retired, some scoot games in on their days off and some can only play when their grandfather brings them. Their skill levels and experience is just as varied, but one thing remains constant for the group. “It’s fun,” said Muench. “I don’t know of anyone that’s come here and tried it and hasn’t come back.” Player after player last week said the main reason they love the sport is the ease of learning the rules. “It’s like ping pong and tennis combined,” said Tommy Sorrentino, 9, visiting with his sister, Angela Sorrentino, 16, from Allentown, Pennsylvania. Tommy said some of the elements are trickier to catch on to, such as serving, though hitting the ball across the net has come naturally. A perforated plastic ball is hit over the net using paddles a little larger than those used in ping pong. While Tommy is energetic and quick on his feet, the game doesn’t require the same level of agility as tennis, making it easier to play for older folks or those with mobility issues. While the Sorrentino siblings have played a few times before with their grandfather, Doug Dixon, of Friends Lake, two friends in tow, William Jebejian, 9, and his 12-year-old sister, Lily, were first-timers. They caught on quickly, and as Muench had described, the veteran players instantly took the newcomers under their wings. “It’s always a friendly game,”
said Nixon of the competition, but that doesn’t exist solely in Chester. Nixon competes in Florida, most recently earning a spot in a national tournament. Even at those levels, he said the game is social and fun. Whichever side of the ball the net is on, gives that team the right to call the ball in or out. “It never leads to an argument, even if you disagree, you just move on. That’s the rules,” he said. Nixon rose to the top ranks after just three years of playing. He doesn’t have a tennis background, which is more proof, he said, that the sport is for everyone. The ages varied last week, from the nine-year-olds, up to some in their mid-80s. The bulk of the group, though, said Muench, are in their 50s and 60s. Some were still able to play despite some knee and other joint troubles, while Nixon himself played left-handed, nursing an injured right shoulder. The two courts were filled and the rest of the group gathered on benches and around the courts, chatting and waiting for their turns. “It’s an addicting game because it’s simple enough to play as a beginner,” said Bob Hatch, of Thurman, who came to play with his wife Laura. The addiction continues, he said, as you improve. “Everybody comes back, that’s why it’s been growing,” he said. The Hatches weren’t the only ones traveling for the game.
www.suncommunitynews.com
Players came from Bolton Landing, Horicon, Johnsburg, Saratoga and Indian Lake. The wait to play has grown longer with the popularity of the program, prompting a new request from Muench to the town board. “He showed us how we can turn one of the tennis courts into three pickle ball courts,” said Town Supervisor Craig Leggett. The other tennis court would remain as is, with lines for the smaller spaced game, giving a total of four pickle ball courts and doubling the playing space. “It’s a great use of this resource,” said Leggett of the tennis courts, original to the old school building where the town offices now reside. New tennis courts have been installed at North Warren School and are the primary courts of choice for local tennis players. “The town is always looking at its recreational assets,” said Leggett. “These courts are existing. It would be a very minor cost to alter them. To have them be used more would be the least cost/best return for recreation in town.” Chester players said they’d welcome another league to play against, while also lessening the amount of players at the Chester courts. Players meet at the town hall courts at 10 a.m. Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. An afternoon session is also held at 2 p.m. every Thursday.

One Hundred Years Ago – July, 1916 Vanished without a trace The discovery, on July 21, 1916, of the nude and badly decomposed body of a man, half buried in the sand on the shore of Stearns’ Island, probably explains the mysterious disappearance of Harry Ellsworth Abbott, of Oakville, Connecticut. Abbott was last heard from on September 27, 1915 when he mailed two letters at North Creek, one to his brother, Charles F. Abbott, of Oakville; in which he stated that he had been ill for four days in an Albany Hospital, and left there the night before at seven o’clock. According to the letter, he evidently went by train to North Creek and said he was going to try to walk from there to Saranac Lake, as he had no money to pay his way. He concluded with the assurance: “I’ll be all right, don’t worry about me.” Immediately upon receipt of this letter, Charles F. Abbott went to North Creek in search of his brother. Every possible effort was made to trace the missing man but to no avail. He had seemingly disappeared from the face of the earth, and no trace of him was ever found; though the facts regarding his disappearance were given wide publicity in the columns of The News and other local newspapers. The missing man was described as about 40 years of age, of good sized frame, but very thin, about five foot ten inches tall and weighing 126 pounds. He had dark eyes, thin hair graying at the temples, three vaccination marks on his left arm and partial false teeth. When last seen he was smooth shaven and wore a dark gray suit, almost black, no vest, light underwear, black button shoes and a dark green hat. The body found Friday was so badly decomposed that many points of the description would not serve to identify it. However, the size of the corpse was about the same. The body had been in the water a long time, and had evidently floated down the river in high water and lodged on the island. The left arm and right hand and part of the head were missing. There was but little flesh upon the bones and not a shred of clothing. This may be explained by the length of time it had been in the water and contact with rocks and logs while floating down the river. There can hardly be a doubt as to the identity of the corpse. The man was probably overcome by weakness during his long walk and fell into the river at some point in his journey. The body was discovered Friday evening by Earl Eddy, track patrolman for the Delaware and Hudson Railroad between Thurman and Stony Creek. He was enjoying a swim in the river and was horrified to discover a human body. Charles F. Abbott has not yet been notified.

Divorce, old time style It was long a popular belief among the ignorant in England that if a man sold his wife at public auction such a sale had all the legality of a regular divorce. The latest case of the kind on record occurred in 1832 when the woman, Mary Anne Thompson was sold to Henry Mears for 10 shillings and a Newfoundland dog. At midday Thompson placed his wife on a large oak chair with a rope or halter of straw about her neck. He said to the crowd that had gathered, “She has been to me only a born serpent. I took her for my comfort, the good of my home. But she became my tormentor, a domestic curse, a night mare invasion and a daily devil.” Man and wife parted in perfect good temper, Mears and the woman going one way, Thompson and the dog another.
Big summer at the Leland House The Leland House, at Schroon Lake, had dinner guests on Saturday, July 22, 1916; Secretary of the Treasury William G. McAdoo and Mrs. McAdoo, and Mr. and Mrs. Douglass Robinson of Herkimer. Mr. Robinson is a brother-in-law of Theodore Roosevelt. “Teddy” and his family, now in Elizabethtown, will later be guests of the hotel which is owned by brothers James and Louis Emerson, of Warrensburgh. The hotel is enjoying its most prosperous season ever and currently 400 guests are registered.

BOLTON — The Lake George Land Conservancy will offer a scavenger hunt and hike for kids on July 26 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The route was designed by 15 year old Jahnavi Bhavsar of Huletts Landing. Kids ages 7-13 can be dropped off at the LGLC office, and will be shuttled to the trailhead for a moderate one-mile hike up the Pinnacle. The event will begin with an introduction to compass and map skills during check-in. Directly following will be a team scavenger hunt incorporating survival and nature-themed clues along the trail. Educational tips about hiking safety as well as some notes on edible plants will also be covered. Hikers will eat their lunches on the top of the Pinnacle.

Trailed by a bloodhound, Thomas Cane, a convict who had escaped in 1916 while working with a gang of trusties on the new tuberculosis hospital at Dannemora, was caught in a shack two miles from the prison within three hours of his escape. In June of 2016, it was reported that a fight among four inmates at Dannemora state prison escalated and guards were surrounded and tear gas was used. Clinton Correctional Facility, as it is known, was locked down.
New business to open Pereau’s Garage, in North Creek, apart from repairing most of the automobiles in this section, has announced that they are prepared also to shoe horses. For this purpose they have secured the shop across the street from the garage known as the C.S. Wood Blacksmith Shop, and have hired a first-class workman to take charge of it. Prices will be low they state, but strictly cash, and credit will not be given to anybody. Special attention will be given to horses with lame feet.
Sweet and sour notes All the farmers in this locality are haying and report a bumper crop. The hot weather is bringing corn along fast, as well as potatoes and all kinds of grain. Henry Griffing is entertaining at the Griffing farm in Thurman - his annual house party during the month of August, 1916. A valuable guernsey bull owned by Mrs. Jane Morehouse, of Johnsburgh, was found dead in the Morehose barnyard Sunday morning, July 30, 1916. The cause of death is unknown. Jesse Bruno and Miss Elizabeth Potter, both of The Glen, were quietly married Saturday afternoon, July 22, 1916 by Justice of the Peace Willard Baker, at his home in Athol. Mae Combs and Mrs. Nellie Williamson were witnesses. The couple will start housekeeping at once at The Glen in East Thurman. The remains of Mrs. George Fuller, who died of typhoid fever in Blue Mountain Lake, were taken through North River for internment in Troy. There will be an ice cream social on August 3, 1916 at T.H. Smith’s lawn on High Street, Athol. All are cordially invited as guests of the High Street Sunday School. Readers are welcome to contact Adirondack Journal / Sun correspondent Jean Hadden at jhadden1@nycap.rr.com or 6232210.
Parents are welcome to join their children for this event. Participants should come prepared with a packed lunch, sunscreen, bug spray, water and proper shoes for hiking. The hike is free, but RSVP is required by July 22. For more information, call 644-9673 or email hbartonbenedict@lglc.org.

ADK Wine and Food Festival a success, say organizers QUEENSBURY — The Adirondack Wine and Food Festival, held June 25-26 at the Charles R. Wood Festival Commons in Lake George attracted more than 5,200 people and raised more than $8,600 for the SUNY Adirondack Foundation.
www.suncommunitynews.com
The festival fundraiser, organized by Sasha Pardy of Adirondack Winery, more than tripled the $2,400 amount raised at last year’s inaugural event. The vendor list for the event included 21 wineries, four breweries, four distilleries, two cideries, 19 artisan food producers, six food and beverage trucks and one local restaurant. SUNY Adirondack culinary students
presented hourly cooking demonstrations throughout both days and sold cookies to benefit their culinary scholarship. Next year’s ADK Wine and Food Festival is already scheduled for June 24-25. The festival was recently awarded $63,000 in funding from Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s Craft Beverage Marketing and Promotions Grant Program, which was created to increase the
