HAPPY HOMECOMING
The Pinnacle, once to be developed, now a public preserve
This Week WARRENSBURG
By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com BOLTON — A local mountain peak known as the Pinnacle — a prominent landmark that provides a dramatic backdrop to downtown Bolton Landing — is now owned by the public and is protected from development through a conservation easement. Owned until recently by a family that planned to develop three home sites on the mountain, the Pinnacle is now owned by the town of Bolton — with the intent of keeping it wild while developing some hiking trails over portions of the mountain. The effort was engineered by the Lake George Land Conservancy and accomplished by contributions totaling about $500,000 from about 300 donors — individuals, couples, family foundations and trusts. Negotiations between the Lake George Land Conservancy and the peak’s former owners, the Ernest Oberer family, concluded with the Conservancy purchasing the Oberers’ 73 acres on the mountain July 16 for $525,000.

This weekend’s Jamboree to feature auction, midway & rides By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — For more than half a century, the Smoke Eaters’ Jamboree has been annually anticipated with enthusiasm by both children and adults in the North Country. A combination of a carnival and old-time country fair, the Jamboree is celebrating its 53rd anniversary this weekend. As the primary fundraiser for the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co., the event features carnival rides, a midway, an auction, top-name entertainment, a barbecue, fireworks and games of chance. The Jamboree will be held this year Friday, July 24 and Saturday, July 25 at the Warrensburg Recreation Field on Library Ave.
The renowned rock ‘n roll band The AudioStars are booked again this year for Saturday beginning at 6:30 p.m., and they’re expected to draw a large crowd. The gates open at 6 p.m. Friday. While youth enjoy the midway and various games, adults can cast bids beginning at 6:30 p.m. in an auction of new and used goods and services donated by area businesses and residents. For decades, Jim Galusha of Thurman has served as auctioneer. Entertainment Friday for younger children includes interactions with Rowdy the Clown and face painting by BonBon. Both days, adults annually enjoy the fun of placing bets on the roulette-style money wheels, attempting to multiply their handfuls of cash, or they test their skill and luck at the blackjack tables. Children traditionally amuse themselves with carnival rides and a midway. There’s an entrance donation of $5 per person on Saturday and $3 on Friday. Saturday, gates open at 5 p.m. as the Warrensburg firefighters grill up their traditional chicken barbecue. Appearing for
the children — before the AudioStars start their show — will be Rosco the Clown and the Joey D. Magic Show, while adults listen to the music provided by deejay After-FX. Saturday’s events include fireworks at dusk. Friday’s auction features a wide variety of quality home furnishings and nick-nacks as well as one-of-a-kind items — plus new goods and services donated by area enterprises, according to Warrensburg Fire Company President Kevin Geraghty. “The local businesses have been generous for decades, supporting us year after year,” he said. “We’ve got an impressive selection of items and services donated for the auction this year as always.” Geraghty added that people from all over the southern Adirondacks enjoy the action at Smoke Eaters’ Jamboree. “Each year, people of all ages turn out to have a good time, meet up with friends, and enjoy the music, games, — and find some bargains at our auction,” he said. “The Jamboree always provides a really good time at an affordable price.”

my whole life,” Moore said, noting the recent changes to the corner, from the renovation projects underway at the Band Stand and the Merrill Magee house, as well as the thrift shop which recently opened in the space next-door to Deadwood Mountain. While the couple hails from the southern Saratoga area, they are no strangers to Warrensburg and the Adirondack Park. All her life Moore has spent her summers and weekends on a Warrensburg property settled by her great grandfather along the Hudson river in 1914. Since becoming the property’s official caretaker 25 years ago, her family’s visits to the town increased to four days a week, and after their children shipped off to college out of state she and her husband decided to live and work in Warrensburg year-round. The store derives its name from a mountain on the Moore property, which borders on land owned by the Pack Forest Camp. “We love this area,” Moore said. “The lakes, the streams, the hiking — we love it all.” Those who remember Corner Car Care may recognize a stillfunctioning sink the couple left intact in the store, now housed by a rustic cabinet — the center of a display of spa items and decorations. But that’s not the only remnant of the old in Deadwood Mountain, as the couple painted a workbench left behind from building’s garage days, still adorned by a functioning table clamp which Benaquista said came in handy during the renovation process. “We love seeing people’s faces when they come in and see how the place has changed,” Moore said. Deadwood Mountain Traders is open on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Sundays from noon to 4 p.m., and Tuesdays and Wednesdays by appointment. Moore said the two are always on the lookout for quality products to sell at Deadwood Mountain, and hope to become a go-to stop for gifts for birthdays, anniversaries and other special occasions. “There is a little bit of something here for everybody,” Moore said.
Deadwood opens its doors in Warrensburg ryan@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — A small shop offering Adirondackthemed goods, produced primarily by artisans from the Hudson Valley area, recently opened its doors in the historic stone building overlooking the four-way intersection at the center of town. Deadwood Mountain Traders sells art, jewelry, antiques, rustic furniture, blown and fused glass and other hand-made gift items, all with a touch of Adirondack flavor. Owners Kim Moore and Paul Benaquista have been in the retail business for over 30 years, the duration of their marriage, and since recently making the Adirondacks their permanent home, they decided to continue their work on the bustling corner, at a location characterized by the sights, sounds and smells of auto-repair for over three decades. The pair spent five months personally renovating the space — pouring cement, re-wiring, scrubbing, painting, and ultimately transforming the garage into a cozy nook rich with Adirondack culture and craftsmanship. “I have loved this building

Adirondack Shindig returns to save historical structure By Ryan Edwards
ryan@denpubs.com HORICON — The Adirondack Shindig is set to return to the hamlet of Adirondack Saturday, Aug. 8, to raise awareness and funds toward the preservation of a 1881 church building, breathing new life into the structure and converting it into a historical museum. The structure, once called Union Church, is the product of seven Adirondack families coming together to contribute funds, material, and labor to build a place of worship on donated land, where it served the community for over a century. The church was acquired by the town of Horicon in 2010 due to nonownership, and the following year the Horicon Historical Society formed a committee to rehabilitate the structure — which, naturally, had weathered over the course of the intervening century — to use it as a historical museum annex to the existing museum in Brant Lake, where there is insufficient space to display the society’s thousands of historic regional artifacts which date back centuries. Despite donations from over 300 individuals and businesses totalling $33,000 and a number of interim emergency repairs, however, rapid deterioration of the structure’s stone foundation, which requires remedy before any other repairs can begin, is projected by a hired architect to likely not survive another winter in its current condition. The problem: all of the funds have not yet been raised, and winter is coming. A competitive public bidding for the installation of a new masonry foundation received a low bid of $66,000. Combined with $7,000 in scarce funds made available by the town of Horicon, the society is short $26,000 of its goal to begin construction before snowfall. The historical society filed an application for New York State Project funding in January, but the application is still pending. John Donovan of the Horicon historical society said this conversion of church to museum will “create a much-needed and meaningful quality of life, cultural and tourist attraction within the Hori-
con community.” According to Donovan, the museum will “offer a visual, handson educational opportunity for local residents, including students, neighboring communities, visitors, educational facilities and organizations; create additional housing for viewing significant local and regional historic artifacts; bring additional revenue to the region; and, keep our region’s hearts forever young with visible memories of historic yesterdays.” In order to expedite the fundraising process and raise awareness for the cause, the Adirondack Shindig will take over the Horicon hamlet with a day-long series of events which drew hundreds of attendees last year.
Events schedule
The Adirondack Yard Sale will begin at 9 a.m. in the parking lot by the ball field, and continue until 3 p.m. Those seeking a space for the sale should contact Peggie at 4944430. Boccee contests will be held throughout the day between such groups as the East Shore Schroon Lake Association, the Brant Lake Association and the Tri-Lakes Business Alliance at the recreational field. The Northern Warren Trail Blazers Snowmobile Club and the Schroon Lake Snowmobile Club will battle it out in tug of war or horseshoes. Starting at 3 p.m., Red Wing Road will be closed in front of the Adirondack General Store to the intersection of Church Street, where artisans, local food growers, a dowser and setting up in the parking lot past the post office starting at 4 p.m.. At 5 p.m. the Shindig officially begins. Country and Western band, City Limits, will return this year, performing from 5-8 p.m. The whole street becomes a dancefloor during this time, according to the Kathy Hill of the Horicon historical society. Emceeing the event will be Horicon historical society’s Kathy Hill. “I lost two pounds at the Shindig last year, dancing in the street, and I have my mobile headset ready to go!” Hill said.
Higgins-Bollman a candidate for Chester’s town clerk post By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — Patricia Higgins-Bollman of Pottersville has announced her candidacy for the position of town clerk for the town of Chester. Patricia Smith, the local town clerk since January 2012, and deputy clerk for eight additional years, has announced her retirement. Over recent decades, Higgins-Bollman has acquired experience in municipal accounting which she said gives her skills and credentials vital in the position of town clerk. She worked for about 10 years as an account clerk for the Warren County Treasurer’s Office. Patricia’s family’s involvement in public service goes back a long time. Decades ago, her father Jack Higgins was a tax collector for the town of Horicon for a few years until her mother, Eleanor Higgins, ran against him and won. During Eleanor Higgins’ tenure, Patricia — for 15 of her adult years — assisted her mother in collecting taxes and documenting those payments until about three years ago when her mother retired from the post. “I am very familiar with the town systems,” she said.
Higgins-Bollman is now employed as an Operating Room Recovery Technician at Glens Falls Hospital — a position she has held for 14 years. Also, Higgins-Bollman worked at Gallo Realty for five years during the mid-2000s as a sales associate. She said these work experiences would be helpful if elected town clerk. “I have extensive experience in customer service, and serving the community,” she said. Higgins-Bollman grew up in Brant Lake and moved to Pottersville about 30 years ago with her husband Fred Bollman and their two children. “I strive to help people on a daily basis — it’s truly my passion to be able to assist in whatever way that I can,” she said, noting her high motivation level and various job skills.
The Adirondack Shakespeare Company will arrive around 6:30 p.m., fresh from their performance of Romeo and Juliet at the Schroon Manor Amphitheater, to stroll the crowd and entertain in costume Adirondack General Store and Buttino’s Italian Bistro will be providing cookout style foods, gelato and more. Games with prizes will be available throughout the day, and the historical society will raffle off donations from local businesses and sell 50/50 raffle tickets. Booths will be available for the North Warren the Schroon Lake Chambers of Commerce, and the Tri-Lakes Business Alliance will have a Model-T on display to advertise the upcoming Rum Runners Weekend. A rain day for the shindig has been set for the following day, Sunday, Aug. 9, from 1-4 p.m.

Concerned with pollution, officials seek to cut road salt use By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Armed with newly confirmed evidence that stormwater runoff is threatening the purity of Lake George, municipalities surrounding Lake George are embarking on a new effort to reduce the use of de-icing salt on area roadways — and the initiative is expected to gain traction in the southern Adirondacks. July 20, the Lake George Village Board voted unanimously in support of a Memorandum of Understanding to take action to reduce the use of salt on roads in the Lake George watershed. Eric Siy, Executive Director of the Fund for Lake George, said that about half of the municipalities surrounding the lake have already signed this pledge to work together on the issue, and all are expected to do so before this winter. “Salt is the acid rain of our times, and it’s threatening our vulnerable waterways,” he said. “The beauty of this is, we know what it takes to solve the problem, and we don’t have to look towards the Midwest power plants, we can solve the problem right here and right now.” Salt levels in Lake George have tripled over the last 30 years according to long-term studies conducted by the RPI Darrin Freshwater Institute. This statistic has been confirmed recently by findings of the Jefferson Project, an internationally renowned, innovative high-technology study of Lake George. The data revealed that Lake George now has saline levels 30 times greater than in remote Adirondack lakes, and it is altering plant and marine life as a result. Also, those monitoring lake quality have voiced alarm that the amount of road salt the state and local municipalities use on roadways in the area has doubled over the past four decades. Data indicates that the state and municipalities use more than 33 million pounds of rock salt per winter on roadways in the Lake George watershed — and much of this salt eventually seeps into the lake. Siy, other environmental advocates and municipal officials note that application of roadway salt must be reduced dramatically to protect the purity of the water, and the balance of its ecosystem and the survival of its aquatic wildlife.
In a recent editorial published in a regional newspaper, Lake George Mayor Robert Blais said that action to reduce salt use substantially was an urgent necessity. “As researchers warn, unless we curb salt levels soon, Lake George will eventually reach a tipping point with cascading impacts that may be impossible to reverse,” he wrote. In the editorial, the mayor noted that village officials are seeking the cooperation of the state Department of Transportation, as their trucks spread a high proportion of the roadway salt used in the Lake George watershed. In recent years, the Village of Lake George has been reducing its use of road salt by applying de-icing compounds that are more effective with less material applied to roadways. The compounds are commercially available as “Magic Salt” and “Clear Lane” — which contain liquid magnesium chloride. The substances, while more expensive than rock salt, are more effective — they melt ice at far lower temperatures while adhering better to pavement surfaces and working longer. At the July 20 Lake George Village board meeting, municipal officials said they want to take further steps to reduce the use of salt and other polluting road de-icers. Blais and village Public Works Superintendent Dave Harrington said they would be seeking to equip at least one of their snow plows with a high-technology de-icing spreader which better regulates the amount of substance applied to roads. The equipment measures pavement temperature, ambient temperature, road slope, truck speed and other conditions and applies the least amount necessary to keep the road clear, Harrington said. “There are no trucks in the area so equipped now,” Harrington said, suggesting that Lake George could demonstrate the effectiveness of the equipment — and enhanced training of highway personnel — so other area municipalities could benefit from the village’s experience. Harrington also noted that reduced salt use decreases corrosion of municipal highway trucks, bridges and other infrastructure, as well as citizens’ vehicles. The ecological action group SAVE Lake George Partnership — through which municipal officials and environmental advocates are working together — is planning a “road salt summit” in midSeptember. The symposium, sponsored by SAVE and the Snow
and Ice Management Association, is to share innovative application techniques, equipment, and review new training protocols for highway crews. The SAVE Lake George Partnership, of which Blais is the chairman and Siy is a member — was originally dedicated to stop invasive species. It’s acronym represented Stop Aquatic inVasives from Entering Lake George. Siy said Tuesday that the title has an additional meaning: Salt Abatement is Vital to the Ecology of Lake George. Siy noted that officials of the Salt and Ice Management Association, an international group, was going to discuss salt-reduction initiatives used in Vermont and New Hampshire to protect the environment. In Blais’ editorial he also observed that heavy use of road salt was killing trees and other plant life. “Look no further than the Adirondack Northway, once heralded as the nation’s most scenic highway and traveled by millions of visitors every year, to see what salt application leaves in its wake,” he wrote. “Dead and dying trees, most obviously brown-needled pines, line the highway mile after mile—inescapable, and inexcusable.” The town of Bolton has been using rock-salt substitutes for several years to spread on its roadways. Town officials have also been evaluating new spreaders. Also, Bolton Town Supervisor Ron Conover has been advocating that Warren County reduce its reliance on salt use. Tuesday, Conover noted that the deteriorating condition of highways due to the state’s lack of support for pavement maintenance has prompted municipalities to use more salt to keep the roadways safe — because the road’s surfaces are so irregular. A week earlier, he urged at a Warren County Public Works Committee meeting that the county minimize its salt use. County Public Works superintendent Jeff Tennyson responded that he and his assistants are evaluating new de-icing equipment, materials and crew-training enhancements. He added that intermunicipal cooperation was vital in reducing chloride pollution. Conover amplified the point on Tuesday. “Reducing the use of road salt is a critical issue not only for Lake George but other Adirondack waterways,” he said.
year. Lake George Mayor Robert Blais told village board members at their monthly meeting Monday that a substantial number of village homeowners were unaware of the need to obtain a permit from the village at a cost of $250 in order to rent rooms to the public. Most of the village residents renting out rooms do so to accommodate the annual influx of foreign students who work various
summer jobs in the village. “We can’t turn these foreign students out on the street in the middle of the season — there’s no housing available now for them,” he said. Blais said that the boarding permits and village registry for boarders was vital in case of an emergency. He said that village

Iconic Lake George A&W drive-in gutted by fire on Sunday By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — A roadside eatery that’s been a landmark in Lake George Village for generations — the A&W Drive-In — was closed down this week after suffering severe damage by a fire early morning July 19. This week, passersby stopped, took photographs of the charred building and shared memories of the restaurant that featured car-hop service, its signature root-beer floats, curly fries —and other All-American Food, as its signs proclaim. The fire was reported to the Warren County dispatch center at about 4:30 a.m. Sunday. Within minutes, a county patrol officer was on the scene. Moments afterward, firefighters of the Lake George Fire Department arrived. Lake George Fire Chief Jason Berry was on the first fire truck to arrive. He said the fire apparently had a substantial head start. “As we approached, we saw thick smoke pushing across Rte. 9,” he said, noting the fire was most intense at the northwest corner of the building where the kitchen is located. Much of the second floor remained intact, apparently due to fire-resistant drywall used in the construction of the second floor, Berry said. Berry noted that the second floor, which hosted an office and storage area, incurred water damage. He said firefighters sawed through the metal roof to attack the blaze from above. Also avoiding major damage were the basement and outside food storage areas, Berry continued.
The firefighters worked for about four hours to quell the blaze and prevent it from re-igniting. Working at the scene were 15 firefighters from Lake George, six from North Queensbury, six from Bay Ridge and five from WarThe Lake George A&W rensburg, Berry said. A contingent of Bolton firefighters was stationed on standby at the Lake George firehouse. The cause of the fire is still under investigation, he said, noting that some evidence indicates the fire was electrical, originating with a computer printer in the kitchen area — according to fire investigators with the Glens Falls Fire Cause and Origin Team, he said.

Berry said although the damage was substantial, the structural elements of the building were spared. “They should be able to rebuild,” he said. Repeated attempts to contact property owner Dave Madden were unsuccessful as of Tuesday evening. Madden, however told an area news reporter on Monday that he wasn’t sure if he was going to rebuild the iconic eatery.

ood riddance. The Confederate battle flag has been taken off the statehouse grounds in South Carolina. It’s been placed in a museum — where it belongs. Last month, Gov. Nikki Haley, R-South Carolina, called for the controversial banner to be removed from the statehouse grounds, following the killing of nine black people at a church in Charleston. The white man accused of the mass killing embraced the flag. “My hope is that by removing a symbol that divides us, we can move forward as a state in harmony and we can honor the nine blessed souls who are now in heaven,” Haley said. We applaud this decision to remove the divisive symbol from a very public place in the heart of the South. But let’s also use it as a time to take stock of where we are in the North Country. Spend a few hours driving down a country road and chances are you will see the stars and bars unfurled on a residence or two. The flag is seen by many as a sign of having a rebellious spirit. In popular culture, we have seen it displayed lightheartedly on the “Duke’s of Hazard” television show; Lynyrd Skynyrd and other musical artists have used it as well, conceivably meaning no harm. But don’t forget the history. To defend the flag as solely a commemoration of Confederate soldiers who died in the Civil War denies basic truths. It’s been used a rallying cry for segregation and white supremacist causes. The flag was put up on the Statehouse in the early 1960s as a sign of defiance against the Civil Rights Movement. It was removed from the capitol dome in 2000 as an agreement between those who had differing views of the flag’s symbolism, but controversy continued to boil over the placement of the banner. The Confederate battle flag’s popularity was also resurrected in part by segregationist Strom Thurmond of South Carolina. In 1948, Thurmond, who would serve as a governor and U.S. Senator during his long life, ran as a presidential candidate in support of “States’ Rights.” His run came after many southerners broke ranks with the Democratic Party, after a civil rights plank was added at that year’s convention. Some defenders of the flag say its use keeps alive an important heritage of the South. But any thoughtful reading of history reveals that “heritage” is linked to a time when the United States was embroiled in a Civil War — which was fought over slavery. Haley said she understood people would disagree with the move to take down the banner, but argued it was in the best interest of South Carolina’s future. The statehouse belongs to all people — whether they be white, black or another race. In her well-reasoned argument, Haley seemed to acknowledge the debate would persist in private organizations and in neighborhoods throughout South Carolina. “We respect freedom of expression, and that for those who wish to show their respect for the flag on their private property, no one will stand in your way,” Haley said. While this publication wholeheartedly and vociferously defends every person’s right to free speech, we also recognize that just because someone has a right to display the flag, that doesn’t mean it’s a wise choice. That’s why it is terribly disheartening to see the flag raised in even one North Country yard or above even a solitary vehicle. Lest we forget the sacrifices borne by previous generations: The Civil War ravaged the United States with more troop bloodshed than any other conflict before or since, with an estimated 620,000 men perishing from death in combat or disease. The shocking violence and heartache it brought was deep and wide, in towns of all sizes across the country. Roughly one in every four soldiers who went into the Civil War would never make it back. Combat deaths and deaths by disease numbered approximately 38,000 in New York — more than any other state, according to research shared on the Civil War Trust’s website. For those who were lucky enough to return home, from the Civil War, they faced returning to lives in communities where they were unable to work in the jobs they had due to an array of health reasons. Those soldiers fought against troops who carried the Confederate flag. That is history worth remembering. Again, let’s take solace in the removal of the flag from the South Carolina statehouse grounds. — Denton Publications Editorial Board, Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau

Letter to the Editor
Open letter to Donald Trump To the Editor: Dear Mr. Trump: Wow, you really have tried to stir up xenophobic enmity toward Mexican immigrants, legal and non-legal alike. But I don’t understand that while you were at it, you didn’t mention another group that commits a majority of crimes in the U.S.? Which group? White males. According to The Encyclopedia of Murder and Violent Crime, “Compared with assailants who kill but one victim, mass murderers are overwhelmingly likely to be male, [and] are far more likely to be white, and the numbers prove it.” So why, Mr. Trump, didn’t you take note of at least some of the white males who are (or were) mass murderers, serial killers, terrorists, mobsters, rapists? Here’s just quick sampling. It barely scratches the surface: John Dillinger, David Berkowitz, Albert de Salvo, Jim Jones, Ted Bundy, John Gacy, Caryl Chessman, Charles Manson, Ted Kaczynski, Eric Harris and Dylan Kliebold, Jeffrey Dahmer, Timothy McVeigh and John Nichols, Al Capone, John Gotti, James “Whitey” Bulger, Charles Ponzi, Adam Lanza, David Sweat and Richard Matt and Dylann Roof. But wait. What about all those white collar criminals? What about
some of the executives of bailed out banks, that brought the economy cashing down, for example. Overwhelmingly white males. You never mentioned them. OK, a number of them got bonuses rather than criminals convictions, so I guess I shouldn’t mention them. And they may be your friends. Nevertheless you get my drift. What do you think we should do about white males in our country? Because they are U.S. citizens for the most part, of course we can’t simply send them back to the countries of their ancestors. We didn’t send Japanese Americans back to Japan during World War II. But we did incarcerate them in camps even though not one of them committed treason. So, how about putting all white males in encampments, at least until they repent? I know, I know, there are too many of them to do that, and besides, the richest among them are buying our government and our judges. So, Mr. Trump what would you do about white American males? Or rather, why don’t you stop negative stereotyping of Mexicans? And, just because I mention some white male criminals don’t start stereotyping white males either. Monique W . Clague, Keene
Queensbury welcomes The Furniture House By Ryan Edwards
ryan@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Saratoga Springs business The Furniture House recently opened its second location in Queensbury with an official ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday, July 17. Local officials, sale-seekers and miscellaneous well-wishers gathered at the two-story location — the centerpiece of the shopping plaza just south of Great Escape on Route 9 — to welcome the new business to the Queensbury community. The Furniture House has been in business since 1980, supplying the region with primarily American-made furniture, art and homeaccessories — including pieces from the Amish and Menonites and American Craftsman — and offering free design consulting including home visits and delivery to anywhere in the country. “I can’t say thank you enough to everyone who’s been a part of this,” said owner Mario Di Siena, shortly before cutting the ribbon symbolically separating The Furniture House from the surrounding community. “The people have been so instrumental, and the commu-
nity has been so receptive.” Queensbury Town supervisor John Strough said he and Di Siena go back 21 years. “Now I won’t have to drive to Saratoga to get my furniture,” Strough said. “Now you’re here in Queensbury, right on Route 9— where all the action is.” On behalf of the Warren County Board of Supervisors, Queensbury Supervisor at Large Rachel Seeber said, “This area is a great place to live, to work, to play, and we are so privileged and honored to have you be a part of it.” Matthew Scollin, Glens Falls regional director for Rep. Elise Stefanik’s office, read a personal letter on behalf of the congresswoman welcoming The Furniture House to the area and offering future assistance to the Di Siena family. After the ribbon cutting, dozens of guests poured into the store, where they enjoyed snacks and refreshments before perusing marked-down floor items and the warehouse sale which accompanied the grand opening.
Acclaimed painter to hold events in Chestertown By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — Cate Mandigo, one of the Adirondacks most celebrated painters, will be in Chestertown on two dates, presenting an art shows and sale on two upcoming Wednesdays — with a share of the proceeds going to help local families in need. On July 29 and Aug. 5, Mandigo will be at the Helper’s fund office on Main St. with her paintings and prints. She will be greeting art patrons, friends and making new acquaintances while signing her prints, which will be available at a deep discount. Her works up through this year will be available for at least 75 percent off, she said. The Helpers Fund office is located across from the Chester Municipal Center. The sale is being held concurrently with the Chestertown Farmers’ Market. Half of proceeds are to go to the Helpers Fund, which helps families in Northern Warren County with critical and emergency needs. This show and sale is part of a series of shows this year celebrating her 35th anniversary of her painting career. Mandigo has for decades been a mainstay of the art scene in the Adirondacks. Her American primitive folk-art paintings have been collected by art enthusiasts across the nation as well as overseas. She’s won major national awards for her work, and she’s been invited four times to paint artwork to be displayed in the White House.
Student housing From page 4
control over boarding houses helped prevent abuse of foreign workers, including housing four students or more per room, as was occurring decades ago. Years ago, village leaders recognized that unscrupulous landlords were packing foreign student workers into motel rooms and homes — some of them in poor condition — and charging exorbitant rents. To combat the abuses, in the 1990s the village leaders established Student Connection, a service that arranged and inspected student housing, investigated complaints about unfair labor practices and substandard housing. In its later years as an independent agency, the Connection secured jobs for students, while it monitored the students’ welfare, including arranging for medical needs and dealing with emergencies. The Connection received a statewide award in 1998 for its innovative services. Despite its success, the agency closed down in 2009 as the need for its services dwindled. In other business conducted July 20, the village board approved spending up to $24,000 to transport finely-ground recycled glass from northern Vermont to use as a substitute for sand in one of the village’s 18 filtration beds at the sewer treatment plant. The recycled glass is available for free — the money pays solely for trucking. Village Public Works Superintendent Dave Harrington said the village couldn’t efficiently transport the 1,000 cubic yards needed as their suitable dump trucks could haul a maximum of 30 cubic yards per load. Harrington said the use of the recycled glass, as suggested by the village’s consulting engineer, might qualify for grant funding as a green initiative — if the crushed glass works well, as anticipated, as a filtration media. Addressing other matters, the board voted to seek proposals
A former full-time resident of Chester and a gallery proprietor here, she is now a part-year resident. Said this week she was happy to hold the two events in Chestertown. “Chester has always been terrifically supportive to me,” she said. “It’s one of the strongest communities I’ve ever experienced — people really help each other — and I want to give back.” ABOVE: Internationally acclaimed painter Cate Mandigo will be holding a show and sale on two Wednesdays — July 29 and Aug. 5 — with half of the proceeds going to a local charity.

from food concessionaires to operate a hot dog cart near Shepard Park beach. Blais noted that although the board had in the past declined to allow such vending in the park in order to uphold revenues of nearby established eateries, many swimmers and sunbathers, especially those with children, would appreciate the convenience of obtaining food without having to change clothes and go to a local restaurant. He noted that other beaches in the area are hosting food concessions — Brown’s Beach at Saratoga Lake, as well as beaches at Schroon Lake and Lake Luzerne. He suggested that the village contract with a vendor with the agreement specifying payment to the village for an exclusive permit. “I see it as a convenience to our visitors, and as a new source of revenue,” he said, adding steamed food like hot dogs, sausage and kielbasas would be allowed, but grilled food such as hamburgers would not be permitted due to the smoke emitted. Blais predicted a vendor could have a cart in place by the end of summer as he suggested that the concession would likely be situated near the beach rest rooms. Board member John Root acknowledged the need to preserve the income of established eateries, as their owners shoulder substantial property taxes or stiff rents. Suggesting an additional revenue source for the village, Root suggested that the village allow billboards to be installed above the urinals in the men’s rest room at Shepard Park. Agreeing that it was a good place to advertise, Blais suggested that the village could promote their upcoming events on handbills that could be slipped into frames affixed to the wall above urinals in the village’s men’s rooms and above the sinks in the municipal women’s rooms. Root noted that the relatively new foot-wash station at the beach was very popular with visitors. “This weekend, there was a waiting line to use it,” he said.
Camping memories
I
love music and enjoy a little trivia. As the years roll by, though, many lyrics have escaped me like a slow leak in your car tire. When my busy head was searching for this week’s topic in the middle of the by Gordie Little night, one word stepped front and center: Camping. So, let’s talk camping. My troubled mind is more bizarre than that of the average bear. For some reason, it conjured up an old song that the vast number of my readers will not recollect. A few history buffs will be humming along with me, while the rest of you are left in the lurch. It’s called “Tenting Tonight” or “Tenting on the Old Camp Ground.” To set the record straight, it was written by a man named Walter Kittredge in 1863 and became popular with Union Army troops during the Civil War. My late mother had the sheet music crammed into the piano stool and we sat around singing it more than seventy years ago. That’s what families did after supper. It was a sad song about war and death and homesickness and all the rest. But, it stuck in my young memory and has remained there. My own tenting memories are far more pleasant and I’ll conjure up a few. As a young lad, my brother Jim and I joined our parents in traveling to campgrounds in Beacon, NY as well as all the way up from Westchester County to the Mooers Campground here in northern Clinton County. The old canvas Army tents on wooden platforms had a special odor that is hard to describe. And the services in what they called “the tabernacle” were full of fire and brimstone. Kaye and I have also tented with our family many times throughout our long relationship and marriage. I seem to recall spending a lot of time trying to waterproof the tent seams to keep rain water out. Once, at a campsite near Lake George, we went to sleep confident that the tent wouldn’t leak. That changed when I woke up a few hours later in a driving storm and felt for my trousers. They had soaked up about fifteen pounds of water. We scrambled into the SUV for the rest of the night. From there, it was pop-up campers and they were only slightly better. On one memorable occasion on Cape Cod, I was jolted awake to the sensation that I was falling and ended up in my BVDs on the ground after the metal supports gave out under the bed. The neighbors cheered. We spent over forty years at our all-time favorite place called Cole’s Creek on the St. Lawrence River between Massena and Waddington. Family, friends, music and marshmallows over open fires gave us magical memories enough for a lifetime. Over the past 30 years or so, we graduated to tow-behind hard-sided campers with many home comforts. The sunsets there rival those we enjoyed in Hawaii and we have thousands of photos to prove it. Friends from the Plattsburgh area and many from other counties, states and Canada joined us each year for two weeks in July. Campfire stories, long walks, games of dominoes and hundreds of good books to read. How can you beat that? While you are reading this, many of those same folks are camping at Cole’s Creek. We are not. It’s a lot of work preparing for the annual sojourn and we decided, after last year, to pack it in. We sold our truck and the camper and spend a lot of time reveling in the ambiance offered by our enclosed back deck along the beautiful Saranac River in Morrisonville. Do we miss camping? Sure thing. As a matter of fact. We’re visiting our family and friends on the St. Lawrence right now for a couple days while sleeping in a nearby motel. The times they are a changin’. Let’s all sing the tenting song: “We’re tenting tonight on the old camp ground, Give us a song to cheer Our weary hearts, a song of home And friends we love so dear.”

Lt. Governor emphasizes balance in Adirondack speech By Pete DeMola
pete@denpubs.com LONG LAKE — Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul said Adirondack Park policymaking should be based on striking the right balance between preservation and economic development. “The economy and the environment are mutually dependent — they don’t have to compete,” said Hochul. The state’s second-in-command spoke Wednesday, July 15 at the Common Ground Alliance, the annual forum that brings together stakeholders from across the Adirondack Park to discuss ways to map out the region’s future. Hochul hailed the group for their willingness to put aside their differences for the greater good. “The common good is so much bigger than all of us individually, and that’s the beauty of what I see going on here today,” said Hochul.
Wealth of issues
The lieutenant governor’s speech came at a time when Adirondack-related issues have been burning bright in the public sphere. Earlier this month, the DEC held a pair of public meetings on
their plans for the newly-accessible tracts of state-owned land parcels in the central Adirondacks, the largest addition to the Forest Preserve in nearly a century. The proposed DEC plan for the Essex Chain Lakes Management Complex includes a new community-connector snowmobile trail, bicycle and horse trails, more opportunities for paddling access and primitive tent sites. Groups are conflicted over a number of connector trails as well as a proposed new bridge over the Cedar River. Another hearing will be held in Albany on July 22, while the public comment period runs through July 27. For Invasive Species Week, which wrapped on Saturday, the state opened 12 new boat decontamination stations as part of a pilot program designed to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species in the region. To cap off the week, the DEC announced a new action plan on Friday to combat aquatic invasives, including expanding the networks of boat launch stewards, developing new response frameworks to guide decision-making when invasives are located and identifying and evaluating the risks associated with the various pathways for invasives introduction into, and movement within, the state. On the infrastructure front, groups like the Adirondack Council are continuing to push for cash-strapped municipalities to tap into new clean water infrastructure funds to replace outdated or ailing systems in their towns. Some $200 million will be made available until 2017.
$500 million battle royale
Earlier this year, the state legislature approved an Initiative that will see seven regions battling for three $500 million pots of eco-
nomic development funds. Hochul serves as the chair for the state’s economic development council. While she didn’t discuss specifics, she did offer a highlight of the general goals that the North Country group has zeroed in on, including the creation of the state’s greenest economy, activating tourism as a driver to diversify the economy and broadcasting to the international community that the Adirondack Park is one of the most special places on the planet. “I like the way you think big up here,” she said. The regional councils will submit their progress reports and priority projects for the fifth round of the regular annual competition on Sept. 21, while the seven regions taking part in the enhanced competition will make those submissions on Oct. 5. Hochul also stressed the importance of protecting and revitalizing local Main Streets. Doing so, she said, will continue to draw tourists to support local businesses. “Some of them are more vibrant; some of them have been spruced up… some are looking okay, and some are not,” she said. Last week’s Common Ground Summit was the ninth installment of the conference. Noting the once combative tenor that once marked discussions between stakeholders in the Adirondack Park, Hochul said officials from elsewhere in the state are increasingly looking at the North Country as a model for working across municipal lines. Being the birthplace of the wilderness movement, she noted, also carries a lot of cachet elsewhere. “You figured out that united together, as one voice for this region, you are far stronger than being divided,” she said. “There was an inherent conflict, but all of you have come together and said, that’s not the way to go anymore — that we can do so much more together.”

Homecoming From page 1
at the girls’ favorite summertime destination. Sporting matching blue dresses and red bows in their hair, the girls rushed through the front gates and led the morning crowd to the carousel plaza at the front of the park. There the sisters were delighted just to dance with Frankie the Fox, unaware that they were the center of the growing media swarm. In honor of their ostensibly absent father, in-house performing artist Carly Merrill led the crowd in a rendition of the national anthem. Garbed in full camouflage, Donald snuck up behind Frankie and his partner, a bear in a bowling T-shirt, as the girls sang along. Then it was time for the girls to declare the park open, but before they could speak the fluffy friends parted for the big reveal. Excitement and disbelief danced across the sisters’ faces as they made the breathtaking realization: Daddy’s home. Donald ran to his girls, ducked down low and scooped them both into his arms with a single lunge, their mother looking on, overjoyed by the scene. “Oh, I missed ya,” Donald told his daughters. “Oh, I missed

The previous night, Donald’s flight from Washington D.C. was cancelled, threatening to destroy his chances of making it in time for the surprise. But the soldier in him refused to surrender to the circumstances, and Donald resolved to get home to his family no matter what the cost. Alisha even offered to drive to D.C. and back overnight. But Donald managed to secure the last rental car on the lot, which he had to share with a stranger. The unlikely pair drove all through the night, where Donald was dropped off to meet Alisha in Albany at 6 a.m. From there, Donald hid in the basement until Alisha and the girls left for the park, still having not slept a wink. Alisha said it was hard to keep the surprise from the kids — especially from Zoe, whom her mother called a “daddy’s girl” — but it was all worth it in the end. “This means everything to me,” she said, looking on as Donald caught up with their girls. The day-to-day of Donald’s deployment has been hard, Alisha

Reunited at last, the Chadwick’s began their VIP experience at the park, topped off with a complimentary overnight accommodation at the Lodge and Indoor Waterpark across the street. Evidently the girls inherited a predilection for soaring the sky from their dad, as, when asked what ride they planned to hit first, “The Condor!” the girls shouted in agreement.

Turning Back the Pages By Jean Hadden One Hundred Years Ago – July, 1915 Fear sweeps Horicon
The death of William Kennedy, of Jersey City, a summer visitor at Brant Lake, Horicon, Sunday night, July 18, 1915, caused a sensation owing to the fact that three local physicians could not agree as to the cause of death and none of them therefore, would sign a death certificate and consequently permission to embalm the remains and make arrangements for the funeral could not be secured. In some way a rumor was started that the man had died of smallpox and spread like wildfire through Horicon and Chestertown causing great alarm. This was only put at rest when Dr. C.S. Prest, sanitary supervisor for this district, was called into the case Tuesday, July 20, 1915 and after an examination of the body pronounced death due to odema of the lungs. As far as can be learned none of the doctors were of authority for the statement that Mr. Kennedy had died of smallpox, the tale being the invention of gossip which grew stronger as the news carried around the area. Mr. Kennedy came to Brant Lake the third week of July with his fiancé, her sister and the latter’s children and they leased a cottage from Philetus Smith, proprietor of the Pebloe Hotel, intending to remain for five weeks. During Saturday night he went in swimming and on coming out of the water complained of being sick. Shortly after he was attended by Dr. Perkins, Dr. George Bibby and Dr. F.E. Aldrich. The patient’s condition grew worse until his death. Mr. Kennedy was about twenty-five years old.

105 Saxon dealers who participated in the big Saxon parade and economy drive, held Thursday, July 15, 1915 under the auspices of the Saxon Motor Company, in Detroit, Michigan. Mr. Granger made the trip across the state and return with his Saxon Six. On the return trip Mr. Granger left Buffalo shortly after noon Friday and arrived in Warrensburgh at 3 o’clock Sunday morning. In the run of 375 miles he did not make a single readjustment of parts and consumed only sixteen gallons of gasoline and seven pints of oil, an average of twenty-three miles per gallon of gasoline. (Note- This Saxon Six automobile, a five-passenger “tourer”, 30 to 35 horse power, selling for $785, became available in 1915 and was considered a 1916 model. It had an unprecedented electric starter and headlights. The factory started in Detroit and later moved to Ypsilanti, Michigan and in 1921 they produced the Saxon-Duplex there. Production ceased in 1923.)
Granger’s further adventure
Edison Granger, of the Warrensburgh Garage, while walking to his home on Lower Main Street, Warrensburgh, about 11 o’clock Sunday night, July 18, 1915, was run down by an automobile and seriously injured. Ligaments were torn loose in his left shoulder, his neck and his back was badly bruised, knees and hands were cut, chest bruised and an ugly gash cut in his forehead over the left eye. The accident occurred at a point just above the Bolton House and was entirely due to the carelessness and incompetency of Edwin Stimpson of 26 South Street, Glens Falls who was driving the touring car which struck the garage man and narrowly escaped causing his death. When the car was but a short distance from him, the driver deliberately pulled over to the left of the road, almost striking the curbing with his front wheel and in another second Granger was struck. He rolled over and over and when picked up, his feet were clasped about his neck. Had it not been for the curbing, the car would surely have run over his body. Mr. Granger did not lose consciousness and shouted to the driver of the car, his cries bringing out several people from the Bolton House. They noticed two young men and a girl leap from the machine, an old five-passenger model and start up the street. They were seen later taking a trolley car going to Glens Falls. Another girl, who had been riding in the auto, stayed with Stimpson, the driver, but refused to give her name. A crowd rapidly gathered and first-aid was given to Mr. Granger before Dr. Goodman arrived and Dr. Parker arrived a few minutes later. No bones were broken and no internal injuries had been sustained. (Note – Looking closely at the newspaper dates, I see that Edi-
son Granger arrived home from Detroit in his Saxon Six automobile on Sunday, July 18, 1915 at three o’clock in the morning and was struck by an automobile at 11 o’clock that same night. The Bolton House, owned by Harry Bolton, was a popular bar originally called the Trimble Inn. It once stood just across the street from today’s Judd Bridge on the east side of lower Main Street. Back in 1902, when it was called Riverside Hotel, the proprietor, Powell Brace was shot and killed there. The building burned in 1926.)
Horses hate cars
Jerry McCarthy, while driving from Warrensburgh to his home on the Chestertown Road, accompanied by his sister, Miss Margaret McCarthy, was run down by a Glens Falls automobilist, thrown from his wagon and was severely bruised. Miss McCarthy suffered severely from shock and their wagon was practically demolished.
Man’s allotted time expires
Having lived six years beyond man’s allotted span of three score years and ten John D. Harris, on a Monday morning, laid down the burden of life and entered into rest eternal. He was ill little more than a week and death was caused by Bright’s disease. A native of Thurman, he left that town twenty-six years ago and came to Warrensburgh to make his home. For the past fifteen years he had been engaged in buying wool for the Warrensburgh Woolen Company and he had a large circle of friends and acquaintances throughout the northern section by all of whom he was highly esteemed. He was the owner of the “Harris Block” in which he occupied a suite of rooms. (Note – The Warrensburgh Woolen Mill was located at 18 Milton Avenue. The “Harris Block,” according to author and historian Steve Parisi, was located where Jack Toney’s gas pumps are now located.)
New hotel Sagamore
It is expected that within the next month work will be started on the contract providing for the erection of a modern hotel on the site of the far famed Sagamore Hotel, which last spring was destroyed by fire. A novel feature of the design lines is the fact that there will be no corridors, all rooms opening direct on larger porches which will encircle the building on all three floors, insuring a maximum of light and air and freedom from fire danger. The hotel will stand on an eminence commanding a view of one of the most beautiful parts of Lake George and will have an ample shoreline. The rates will be reasonable with a special CONTINUED ON PAGE 17

Lightning bolts create havoc
Helpful medical news
Fully 80 per cent of the men and women who travel in the trains and street cars sit cross legged and this habit is responsible for many ills according to a prominent physician. Besides cutting off the blood supply there is another danger. Too much crossing of the legs is sure to bring lopsidedness. The legs should be left to rest limply.
Boy writes home
A heavy thunderstorm visited Johnsburgh, July 13, 1915 and lightning struck in several places. On Elm Hill, John Armstrong, in passing the telephone, was knocked senseless, the lightning burning his side and shoulder. A tree by W.H. Armstrong’s barn was struck. The telephone at J.D. Washer’s was burned out. There were several hard thunder storms in Diamond Point.

Fred Mundy, son of Robert Mundy of Chestertown, a nephew of former Postmaster Fred J. Mundy, is a soldier in France on one of the Canadian regiments. He enlisted in Calgary, Canada and has been on the firing line for the last couple of months. In writing to his mother he stated that he had a board for a bed but he usually selects the softest one so that made it better.

vancy in turn sold the land, protected with a conservation easement, to the town of Bolton for $150,000. Major contributors include Neil and Jane Golub, Manning and Virginia Rowan Smith, plus the Waterhouse and McGahren families. The Golub family owns and operates the Price Chopper supermarket chain. Other substantial gifts to the project — $10,000 or more — were donated by the Lehigh Hanson Heidelberg Cement Group, The Sagamore Resort, the Marjorie and Richard McGahren Foundation, and Wildlife Forever Fund. Lake George Land Conservancy Executive Director Jamie Brown said this week that he and others involved in the land acquisition were very grateful for the people who stepped forward to contribute — so the land that would have been closed off to the public would now be forever preserved and open to all. “This has been a true community effort to protect a community treasure,” he said. Brown reserved special credit for the Fund for Lake George, which worked with the Conservancy through the entire process. Brown noted that Lake George Waterkeeper Chris Navitsky, affiliated with The Fund, had launched the process to keep The Pinnacle wild years ago when he challenged the mountain’s

development plans. He and others were concerned not only with preserving the viewshed of the Pinnacle — but the stormwater pollution that the proposed development would likely cause. Water flows off the steep slopes of the Pinnacle into Finkle Brook, which drains into Lake George. Brown also noted that The Fund for Lake George was the entity contributing the largest sum — a grant of $135,000 — towards preserving the Pinnacle.

for their contributions to the effort. “This achievement shows what’s possible through partnership and shared investment in precious assets — the protection of which wouldn’t otherwise be possible,” he said. In celebration of the acquisition, Brown invited the public to hike the Pinnacle and enjoy the view. His agency is conducting three guided hikes up the Pinnacle, two of which are for those who donated toward the project — one on Aug. 4 and the other, Aug. 11, both from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. No reservations are required. The third hike, featuring a scavenger hunt and intended for children ages 7 through 13, is to occur from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 6. Parents are asked to supply their children with sunscreen, water and hiking shoes, plus make reservations with The Conservancy by Aug. 4 at: 644-9673 or: hbartonbenedict@lglc. org. All three hikes begin at Bolton Conservation Park on Edgecomb Pond Road.
Pinnacle preservation prompts praise
The acquisition agreement calls for the Conservancy to maintain the Pinnacle’s trail system and oversee the property. The organization already owns a conservation easement on 165 acres elsewhere on the Pinnacle. This week, Navitsky called the public acquisition and protection of the Pinnacle “a land-
mark achievement.” “After more than a decade of work, it is immensely satisfying to realize this conservation solution,” he said. Neil and Jane Golub released a statement noting they were “pleased and privileged to have played a small role in preserving the beauty and uniqueness of Bolton Landing.” The document continues, “What makes Lake George special is its pristine beauty and the mountains that surround and engulf its shores.” Brown said the property’s protection advances Bolton Landing’s appeal as a hiking destination. A proposed trail system is to be developed that would link the Pinnacle, Bolton’s Conservation Park, and the popular Cat and Thomas Mountain Forest Preserve trails. One key objective is to develop a trail that connects both the Pinnacle and the Cat and Thomas Mountain Preserve to the downtown business district, Bolton Town Supervisor Ron Conover said July 21. “The Pinnacle is a major natural landmark in our town — it’s priceless —and its preservation is so important to not only area citizens today, but for future generations.” He said that many local people have poignant memories of hikes up the mountain. “The Pinnacle has very special meaning to Boltonians, and it’s a privilege for me as supervisor to sign the agreement — I’m thrilled.”
