No bids on Civic Center

This Week LAKE GEORGE

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com

GLENS FALLS Ñ Nearly 200 people gathered Aug. 18 for a public auction of the Glens Falls Civic Center Ñ and many had high expectations Ñ but not one individual or organization submitted a bid to purchase it. The minimum bid for the 70,000-square -feet arena which seats 5,000 was $1.5 million, a fraction of its present construction cost.

Standing in the civic center lobby and surrounded by news reporters, Glens Falls Mayor Jack Diamond said he was disappointed Ñ but he will be meeting with other city council members soon to evaluate options in their ongoing effort to transfer ownership. The cityÕ s Common Council has sought to sell the 35-year-old venue in order to stop shouldering annual deficits recently averaging $600,000 to $700,000.

The council will undoubtedly be reconsidering area developer Rich SchemerhornÕ s $750,000 offer, submitted months ago before the auction was announced, Diamond said. Diamond and other city officials met with several of the 12 parties that expressed interest in acquiring the civic center, he said.

Glens Falls Mayor Jack Diamond answers questions from news reporters seconds after a public auction of the Glens Falls Civic Center began at 11 a.m. Aug. 18 — and not a single bid was submitted. The lack of offers was interpreted as a positive outcome for the Coalition to Save Our Civic Center, a community-based group that seeks to establish a public-private partnership to own and operate the facility — which benefits area commerce by an estimated $20 million annually.

GLENS FALLS Ñ U.S. Army Sgt. Jason Bradway of Queensbury, who has faced multiple challenges since he was seriously wounded in Afghanistan in 2010, received the Purple Heart award in a ceremony held Aug. 12 at the Adirondack V.F.W. Post 2475 in Glens Falls.

The award was presented by U.S. Rep. Bill Owens (D-Plattsburgh) in a ceremony attended by dozens of BradwayÕ s friends and family members, as well as military personnel and area dignitaries. Ò This award is a testament to the bravery of Sgt. Bradway who demonstrated the finest character traits and persevered despite severe injuries,Ó Owens said.

Ò This is a reminder that the greatest obligation we all have Ñ individually and collectively Ñ is to support our wounded soldiers and their families. Hopefully this day represents another step in the process of providing such support.Ó CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

Featuring classic fare and ambiance, Lake George HoJo’s to reopen soon

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Fried clams and 28 flavors of ice cream will be returning to Lake George as the Howard JohnsonÕ s Restaurant Ñ one of the last remaining in the U.S. of the once-popular brand Ñ will be reopening in mid-September under new management.

The fabled restaurant chain, known 50 years ago as the national Host of the Highways, dwindled from 1,000 or more roadside restaurants in the 1950s and 1960s to merely three eateries decades later as fast food stole their customers.

The Lake George Howard JohnsonÕ s, however, prevailed under the ownership of the Carl DeSantis family, until 2012 when it closed.

However, John LaRock of South Glens Falls, an employee of the restaurant during the 1980s and 1990s, is now taking over the enterprise with an eye on offering Howard JohnsonÕ s traditional fare while adding menu items to accommodate changing tastes.

Back by popular demand and unchanged from prior decades will be the eateryÕ s Friday Night Fish Fry special, featuring those sweet fried clams and savory scallops, accompanied by fried shrimp and haddock. Ò No one will be leaving the restaurant hungry,Ó LaRock said.

The restaurant will also have its crowd-pleasing salad bar with garden-fresh vegetables and fruit, as well as four varieties of soup, LaRock said. The salad bar is to be stocked from 4 p.m. onward.

Added to the traditional menu offerings of American food will be freshly prepared burgers and entrees featuring turkey roasted on site, he said.

The interior of the restaurant will retain the chic 1960s look, with its original retro furnishings, including the vintage booths and counter service Ñ as well as standard table accommodations, he said.

During a visit to the restaurant this week, the traditional Howard JohnsonÕ s interior de-

The Lake George Howard Johnson’s, complete with its vintage mid-century furnishings, is set to reopen in several weeks as Lake George HoJo’s Family Restaurant. On the expanded menu will be the popular Friday Fish Fry, with the fried clams and 28 flavors of ice cream that made the Howard Johnson’s chain so prominent in the 1950s and 1960s.

cor and furnishings were all in place, including their ice cream dishes Ñ appearing as they did under the brandÕ s iconic orange roof as they did 50 years ago. Ò WeÕ re trying to keep the restaurant as original as we can,Ó LaRock said, noting the eatery will feature new kitchen equipment.

Also to remain the same is Howard Johnson’s soda fountain — featuring 28 flavors of ice cream Ñ along with sodas, milkshakes and banana splits.

In past decades, the Lake George Howard JohnsonÕ s was not only renowned for its Friday Fish Fry, but its breakfast specials Ñ and for

hosting group and corporate meetings.

This tradition will continue, LaRock said, noting the five separate dining areas, two of which can be closed off for parties and meetings. With the ability to seat 225 people, The new restaurant, named Lake George HoJoÕ s Family Restaurant, is to feature extended hours. Plans call it to open at 6 a.m. and close at 10 p.m.

SUNY Adk’s new EMT course predicted to help local emergency squads

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY Ñ With an eye on boosting the number and expertise of emergency responders in the region, SUNY Adirondack and Mountain Lakes EMS are together offering an emergency medical technician training course beginning this fall on the community collegeÕ s Bay Road campus.

The classes begin Aug. 26, providing preparation for a state exam to be conducted in midJanuary. The tuition is $700 for students taking the full course for original certification, and $335 for the refresher course.

Noting how this new course would help reverse the trend of a declining number of volunteers in area ambulance squads, Warren County Emergency Services Director Brian LaFlure announced the new course to Warren County supervisors at their monthly board meeting Friday Aug. 15. Ò Area squads now have shifts that canÕ t be covered,Ó LaFlure said. Ò Training responders locally to get training and certification will help fill that shortfall. Training has been a huge thing that needed to be addressed.Ó He said the campus was conveniently located for EMS personnel, noting that under existing conditions, volunteers must travel considerable distances to get the training they need to serve their communities.

Travis Howe, Executive Director of Mountain Lake EMS told the supervisors that the course at SUNY Adirondack was in line with a national trend of offering EMS training on college campuses. He said that SUNY Adirondack had appropriate state-of-the-art classrooms and competent instructors available on its nursing program faculty.

LaFlure offered a similar opinion.

Warren County Emergency Services Director Brian LaFlure tells county supervisors Aug. 15 how a new EMT training course at SUNY Adirondack is likely to help bolster the shrinking rosters of trained emergency responders serving on ambulance squads in the southern Adirondacks region.

Ò SUNY Adirondack is an excellent venue with its facilities, equipment and central location.Ó In March, LaFlure and other EMS officials had warned about the thinning ranks of trained volunteers Ñ because of how training requirements are becoming more rigorous year-byyear, along with the ever-increasing demands on peopleÕ s time.

LaFlure noted that 21 students were already enrolled, surpassing a goal that had been set.

Ò This is a giant step in the right direction,Ó he said. Ò Training volunteers locally will help stop the bleeding now experienced by area squads.Ó Course instructor Doug Wildermuth said he was Ò elated and excitedÓ to be involved with the initiative. Ò This is so advantageous to this area,Ó he said, noting that local training will boost both the membership and expertise of local EMS agencies. He said that when volunteers travel to Albany and beyond to get their

Lake George Bowl now evolving into family fun center

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE Ñ Residents and visitors will soon have new activities available year-round, as northern Warren CountyÕ s sole bowling alley is now undergoing a million-dollar transformation into a family entertainment center.

Area hotel and mall developer Dave Kenny along with his offspring David Kenny, Jr. and Laura Kenny Kohls are reconstructing the former Lake George Bowl into the new entertainment complex.

The venue is to include an extensive laser tag arena, a 20-feethigh indoor climbing structure and array of elecronic arcade games, Dave Kenny Sr. said his week. Ò We wanted to provide an entertainment center that includes attractions that Lake George doesnÕ t now have,Ó Kenny said.

The Kennys bought the bowling alley in May 2013, with the vision of keeping a local bowling alley in operation while adding a variety of new attractions for both area residents and visitors, Dave Kenny Sr. said. Ò Our goal is to give people more things to do year-round so theyÕ ll have more reasons to stay in Lake George rather than go elsewhere,Ó he said.

A two story structure now under construction, will host the large climbing structure as well as the existing 24 bowling lanes.

The second story will also host several rooms for birthday and wedding parties, Kenny said. The upper floor may also feature a gym area, he added.

Plans call for the building to feature an Adirondack-style facade, a freshly paved parking lot and new landscaping.

The bowling centerÕ s restaurant and sports tavern, to be leased to another entity, will feature hearty food as well as an array of television screens, Kenny said.

The bowling lanes should reopen on Sept. 15, and the laser tag facility and arcade should be open several weeks later, he said. The working title for the family entertainment center, located at 2211 Canada St., is Lake George Lanes & Games.

North Country Ministry golf fundraiser slated WARRENSBURG Ñ The sixth annual Fall Classic golf tournament to benefit North Country Ministry will take place Sunday, Sept. 14, at CroninÕ s Golf Resort. The tournament will be a scramble with a shotgun start at 1 p.m. The early-bird rate is $90 per person paid by Sept. 5 and $95 after that or at the door. Nongolfing friends

The former Spare Time Lanes bowling center is now being reconstructed into a two-story family entertainment complex featuring a laser-tag arena, a towering climbing structure and an extensive arcade of electronic games. The bowling lanes are to reopen Sept. 15 with the other attractions available to the public several weeks later.

and supporters may join in for the steak dinner and auction activities only for $30 per person.

The Fall Classic will feature 18 holes of golf with cart, lunch, dinner, prizes, and a silent auction. In addition, North Country MinistryÕ s Summer Jackpot drawing will take place during the after-golf festivities. A maximum of 200 tickets are being sold for $100 each with a grand prize of $5,000 and 2nd and 3rd place prizes of $2,000 and $1,000, respectively.

Purple heart

Continued from page 1 VFW Post 2475 Commander Michael Hoag, who was awarded many years ago with a Purple Heart for bravery during the Viet Nam conflict, also called for people to provide Bradway with support, while praising the 32-year-old sergeant for his service. Ò The Purple Heart is not a medal that is won like in a sports competition Ñ This is a distinction of honor,Ó he said. Ò We all need to remember we have a moral and legal commitment to take care of our wounded veterans.Ó Bradway, a quarterback on the Queensbury High School football team, worked long hours as a chef before he was deployed to Afghanistan to serve as a Combat Engineer due to his experience in construction and operating heavy equipment.

About five months after being sent to Afghanistan, Bradway was driving an all-terrain military transport vehicle on Dec. 7, 2010 in Kunduz when a 1,000-pound explosive device exploded under the driverÕ s side, injuring all the vehicleÕ s passengers. BradwayÕ s injuries were the most serious.

As a result of the blast, Jason suffered a traumatic brain injury, and multiple back and spine injuries. Due to the incident, Bradway also has experienced reduced use of both hands as well as post-traumatic stress disorder, according to information provided by the family. Ò IÕ m very honored and humbled with this award,Ó Bradway said as Owens pinned the Purple Heart to his uniform.

BradwayÕ s wife Amy watched the presentation. She herself incurred an injury just three days after her husbandÕ s injury Ñ she fell as she

Ò JasonÕ s never been concerned with awards Ñ heÕ s always felt that the ones that didnÕ t come home are the ones that deserve the medals,Ó she said. Ò Every day, heÕ s been grateful to have been able to come home and be with his family despite his injuries Ñ and watch his boys grow up.Ó The coupleÕ s two boys, Jason Jr., 6 and Riley, 3, were present for the ceremony, dressed in suits and ties.

In accepting the award, Bradway deferred credit to others. Ò I am very honored and humbled,Ó he said.

Crystal Bradway, Jason Sr.Õ s sister, offered her thoughts. Ò IÕ m so proud of him and I respect him so much,Ó Ó she said. Ò IÕ m glad he came home safe Ñ and IÕ m happy heÕ s getting this kind of support.Ó Jason BradwayÕ s mother-in-law Brenda LeClair of Gansevoort said she was pleased the ceremony was well attended. Ò Jason deserved to be recognized for the sacrifice he made for his family and country,” she said, noting how he routinely suffers painful migraine headaches along with his other ailments.

A long line of veterans, soldiers and citizens lined up to greet Bradway after the ceremony and thank him for his service. Ò ItÕ s an honor that all these people took time out of their day for this ceremony,Ó Bradway said as the event concluded. Ò But the true heroes are those who lost their lives or are still fighting. There’s quite a brotherhood among soldiers Ñ if you havenÕ t been in combat, you canÕ t ever really know what itÕ s like.Ó

The Jerry Lewis Telethon of the 21st Century

T

here is one thing we absolutely cannot understand: why has anyone had anything bad to say about the Ice Bucket Challenge?

The Internet sensation has swept the nation, drawing millions of followers and million of dollars to help support the fight against ALS. LetÕ s start with why this message is so important.

ALS, short for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and also known as Lou GehrigÕ s disease, is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by muscle spasticity, rapidly progressive weakness due to muscle atrophy, difficulty speaking, swallowing and breathing.

It is the most common of the five motor neuron diseases. Despite this, many people learn about it for the first time when they are in the doctor’s office receiving the grim news. ALS has no cure, and a diagnosis is basically a death sentence.

Enter the Ice Bucket Challenge.

It started as a challenge for charity in general, but then started to grow in the ALS community headlined by the challenge from former Boston College baseball captain Pete Frates.

The challenge is simple: if you are nominated, you have 24 hours to either accept the challenge and pour a bucket of ice-cold water over your head or make a $100 donation to the ALS Association.

Many of the people who have accepted the challenge have opted to do both, giving a donation along with getting soaked for the cause.

The challenge has spread, going to the heights of power (Pres. Barrack Obama opted to donate $100 to the fight against ALS and not take the challenge), celebrity (Justin Beiber, Oprah Winfrey, Taylor Swift and many others) to the small towns around the North Country.

Locally, members of the Essex County Courthouse took the challenge in honor of one of their own, Lawrence Bliss, who succumbed to the disease in 2011. It then extended to members of the Essex County SheriffÕ s Department and has also included town supervisors Tom Scozzafava and Bill Grinnell, among others.

Here at Denton Publications, editors John Gereau and Keith Lobdell have accepted the challenge, along with many members of their families.

ALS is a far too common word here. The ALS Raising Hope Foundation was started by Roger and Darlene Long in 2009 after Roger was diagnosed with the disease. They found there was an unusual Ò bubbleÓ of people diagnosed with the disease in the area and started the fight on the local level to help find treatments and a cure for the disease.

Roger himself has taken the challenge, although a modified version given his frail condition. Along with the posting of his acceptance of the challenge, his wife held a sign for him that simply stated, Ò I challenge you.Ó So what has this internet phenomenon done?

As of Tuesday morning, Aug. 19, donations to the ALS Association marked as resulting directly from the Ice Bucket Challenge had totaled $22.9 million.

August 23, 2014

The ALS Association has also only been tracking donations coming from the challenge since July 28, so that means they have received an average of $996,000 per day since the challenge hit the mainstream.

LetÕ s compare that to Aug. 19 of last year, when donations to the association as a whole totalled $1.9 million over the same time period. Simple math - thatÕ s an increase of $21 million. Ò Our top priority right now is acknowledging all the gifts made by donors to the ALS Association,Ó said Barbara Newhouse, President and CEO of the ALS Association in a press release. Ò We want to be the best stewards of this incredible influx of support...

When people look back on this event in 10 and 20 years, the Ice Bucket Challenge will be seen as a real game-changer for ALS.Ó The association reported that along with regular contributors, the challenge has brought in 453,210 new donors. ThatÕ s almost 500,000 who know more about ALS and what it does to people, and took the time to give.

You know what the Ice Bucket Challenge is?

ItÕ s the Jerry Lewis Telethon of the 21st century. Comedian and former Rat Pack member Lewis hosted an annual telethon over Labor Day Weekend with the goal of raising funds for The National Muscular Dystrophy Association. The show would take the airwaves for an entire weekend, with celebrities giving their time to perform and answer phone calls while top executives from companies around the nation would come on stage and present Lewis with checks for staggering amounts to go toward helping Ò JerryÕ s Kids.Ó The show has since lost ground in the fast-paced world that revolves less around television and more around Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. So with a new generation of media, comes a new generation of media fundraising, with the Ice Bucket Challenge being the prime example of the right way to use the medium in order to gain attention to a cause.

Unfortunately, with the social media culture of today comes a horde of Debby Downers, raining on the parades of anything wholesome by trying to nit-pick at the smallest details to turn something as pure as the Ice Bucket Challenge into nothing more than a clever rouse. These people are wrong.

The Ice Bucket Challenge proves that, as a whole, we are not a society of cynics. We can rally together for a cause. We can support each other by taking a couple minutes out of our days to show support for people suffering from terrible breaks in life. We can give hope to people fighting the biggest fight of their lives.

So, when you get tagged on someoneÕ s Facebook video or Twitter feed, we encourage you to accept the challenge and give to the ALS Association. Then, invite your friends to do the same. Be part of something amazing and help change the game forever in the battle against ALS. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board

Earlier this summer, the Lake George Association’s annual summer gala was a great evening of dinner and dancing, all in the name of lake protection. For one day a year, LGA staff puts down the plankton nets and Asian clam sieves, and trades in their rubber boots and waders for dresses and shirts and ties. “This year, we had a sold out house, selling out in record time over a month prior to the event,” said Nancy-Cobb Zoll, the LGA’s Director of Development. “Cash sponsorships and silent auction income was up. We are very happy to report that the final numbers are in and our net income was $90,500, which was a 24% increase from last year.”

“Money raised at the gala allows us to fund critical projects and programs that haven’t received funding elsewhere,” said Walt Lender, LGA’s Executive Director. “This is our major fund-raising event of the year, so a great deal rides on its success. If we don’t meet or exceed our projections, we can’t accomplish the important work we do for Lake George. “ To learn more about the Gala, or any of the LGA’s projects and programs, you can attend the Annual Member meeting coming up on Friday, Aug. 22 at the Lake George Club. The meeting is free and open to anyone who would like to attend.

By Jean Hadden One Hundred Years Ago – August, 1914

scalp wound requiring six stitches to close, both ears badly cut and his hip and groin badly bruised. He was taken home the day after the accident.

Two tons of solid protection

A Mosler safe of large capacity has been purchased by the Warrensburgh Town Board at an expense of about $200 for the protection of town records. It arrived Monday, Aug. 24, 1914 weighing nearly two tons. It was somewhat of a problem how to place it in the town clerk’s office in the Aldrich-McGann building. The job was given to Peter Dary, head machinist of the Schroon River Pulp and Paper CompanyÕ s mills at Burnhamville, who is equal to any task along that line.

The safe was hoisted by tackle blocks from a wagon, swung across a wide piazza through a window and gently deposited in the desired position on the floor of the office. As a safeguard against accidents a pier of railroad ties was raised under the safe as it was raised from the wagon. The usual crowd of advisors watched the operation from the sidewalk and offered several suggestions as to the best method of procedure, which had little effect on Mr. Dary as he knew just what he was doing and how best to do it.

There was considerable trepidation among the tenants in the first story who feared the floor above them was not strong enough to sustain the weight, but their fears were groundless.

(Note Ð I canÕ t help but wonder how many poor overworked horses it would take to deliver a two ton safe to its destination.)

Lost in the town’s back yard

Three out of town visitors, Thomas J. Kean, Jr., Miss Josephine Murphy and Mrs. OÕ Connell, have been visiting the home of John Duggan and on Aug. 25, 1914 they had a harrowing experience on Hackensack Mountain in Warrensburgh.

Shortly after dinner they climbed the mountain to view the town from its lofty summit. When they attempted to descend, they missed the footpath and became lost in the woods. For several hours they roamed aimlessly about and darkness found them still searching for a way down. Mr. Duggan, in the meantime, became alarmed at their continued absence and went searching for them with a lantern. By wigwagging at the foot of the declivity Mr. Duggan attracted the attention of the weary young people and by lusty shouts guided them to the bottom which they reached at 9:30 p.m.

Miss Murphy was nearly prostrated by fatigue and fright but recovered the next day with no ill effects from their thrilling experience. (Note Ð In this column in the June 7, 2014 Adirondack Journal, I told the story of 79 year old John DugganÕ s fall down a flight of stairs into the cellar of the Adirondack Hotel where he broke three ribs. I am surprised that he was well enough to go looking for his lost friends only a short time later.)

Automobile flips, driver hurt

John Carson, of Moriah, while driving his automobile on the Schroon Lake Road, about three miles from Pottersville, Friday afternoon, Aug. 28, 1914, was pinned under the machine when it turned turtle and remained there for some time before he was discovered by other motorists. He was unconscious when extricated and was taken to the Wells House in Pottersville where he was attended by Dr. George Bibby.

When he regained consciousness he was unable to tell how the accident occurred. It is supposed, however, that the car skidded on the wet road and struck an obstruction which caused it to turn over. The injuries sustained by the victim consisted of a

Car banged up, driver safe

A Premier automobile, owned by O.R. Mitchell, of Glens Falls, and a runabout with Stanley Mason, of Mineville, at the steering wheel, were in collision on the Lake George road a short distance below Warrensburgh on Sunday afternoon, Aug. 23, 1914. No one was hurt but the Glens Falls car was badly damaged.

Umbrella made her deaf

Mrs. George Irish, of Lake George, was struck by a northbound trolley car just south of the village, Aug. 26, 1914, and painfully, but not seriously injured. She was walking close to the track and an open umbrella she carried over her shoulder prevented her from hearing the whistle of the approaching car.

World War I makes travel unsafe

R.P. McKee, editor of the Adirondack Record, published at Ausable Forks, has returned from abroad where he went some weeks ago for his health. He came on the Ansonia, the passage of which was delayed as a precaution of war. The ship changed her course and had lights out at night.

Magnate builds Adirondack camp

William Rockefeller, the Standard Oil magnate, is having a $100,000 camp erected on his estate at Bay Pond, in the Adirondacks. The building is to be two stories high and to cover twice as much ground as the Riverside Inn. Thirty carpenters are at work on the construction of this summer palace. The structure, a frame one, is to be built from timber grown, felled and sawed on the Rockefeller estate. (Note Ð William Avery Rockefeller, Jr., bought 110,000 acres of land in 1900 at Bay Pond in Upper Saranac Lake, a vast deer park, and later built his fanciful log Ò Great CampÓ of native timber and stone and constructed forty miles of roads. He caused much animosity among some local landowners, such as resident Joe Lamora, who resented his tactics and refused to sell to him. Rockefeller died in 1922 and later the estate was owned, along with 23,000 acres, by his grandson, William A. Rockefeller II.)

Stony Creek doctor dies

Dr. Jeremiah H. Drake, 87, a former resident of Stony Creek, died Sunday evening of heart failure at the home of his grandson, Bert Aldrich, in Gloversville.

Dr. Drake was a prominent factor in Warren County politics.

After serving as constable and justice of the peace for several years he became county judge and surrogate. He was interested in several mining concerns engaged in the extraction of various minerals such as asbestos, feldspar and mica. About eight years ago he moved to Gloversville and lived with his grandson who is his only surviving relative.

Chestertown news

A successful masquerade dance was given by Harry Downs at the Chester House on Saturday evening. Both attendance and good cheer prevailed. The costumes of those in semi-disguise were distinctive enough to hold attention and especially so was the dress worn by Mrs. A.S. Westion, who represented a type prevailing about 1850.

Family grateful To the Adirondack Journal: To our Friends, Neighbors and the Johnsburg Community at large: Your overwhelming acts of kindness during our challenging time of sorrow were humbling. George B. Studnicky Jr. may have been known to you as George, Stud, Papa, Herm or perhaps even, The Big Salami.

No matter what you called him, if he was a friend, he was indeed Your Friend! He was also a decorated USMC Korean War Veteran and a quick witted man who did not necessarily struggle to state what was on his mind and tell you exactly how he felt about things in general.

He was a Family man and strived to keep his Family close. He never took sides with another against any of us in the family. George also never stopped Loving his wife, Katherine, and he lived his life as only he would!

You have our deepest respect and extreme appreciation for all you have done over the years.

Special thanks to Father John and the Saint James congregation, our very close friends at the Inn on Gore Mountain and to the unknown Gentleman with the road crew department working at The Glen bridge who removed his hardhat and placed it over his Heart as our Funeral procession drove by.

News near and far

The war office in Paris announced that the German’s in the north had assumed the offensive again and that they are attacking the combined English and French armies. The British losses in the fighting in southwestern Belgium are estimated at 2,000.

World War 1 drags on.

Artist Georgia OÕ Keeffe, 27, is presently teaching summer classes in Virginia. She will spend the winter studying composition with Arthur Wesley Dow in New York.

The August nights are getting to be very cool and light wraps are comfortable in the early evening. Autumn is coming on apace and potato digging time is soon to be at hand. Apples in this area will be a poor crop this year owing to the abundance of worms which infected the trees in the spring. On Monday, Aug. 24, 1914 it was 42 degrees above zero in Bakers Mills.

Some miscreant dug from James Warren’s field, in East Thurman, about a bushel of potatoes and carried them away. There will indeed be a warm reception for all other such callers.

Many well known horses will start in the various races at the Warren County Fair. The 41st annual exhibition will be held Sept.

1, 2, 3 and 4 on the societyÕ s grounds in Warrensburgh. Jesse Cooper, of Diamond Point, is working out his trotting horses and getting ready for the races. A balloon ascension will take place and there will be parachute drops, fancy roller skating and demonstrations of popular society dancing. The grand prize purse for the ox races is $18.

A merry party of explorers paddling up the Schroon River in twelve canoes, passed through West Bolton and they were having a delightful time.

A big shepherd dog was struck and killed by a trolley car on Monday, Aug. 24, 1914 at the junction of Main and School Street.

The name of the owner has not been found. (Note Ð School Street is now Steward Farrar Avenue.)

A horse owned by Harry Bolton, valued at $225, was struck and killed by lightening in the pasture recently.

Ellis N. Jones, 7, the son of Rev. Louis H. Jones of East Thurman, while alone fishing, caught a string of eleven fine bass from the river there.

Guy Brittell, 73, died of heart trouble while on a fishing trip about twelve miles in the woods from his home in Newcomb. He was a widower and a veteran of the Civil War. Update Ð On June 21, 2014 I told the story in this column of the tragic drowning death of Frank and Myron Spaulding, father and son, who were fishing from a row boat on June 8, 1914 near Hague on Lake George. I was told that their bodies were found and that they are buried in Hague Cemetery. I have since heard that they were actually never recovered and although the stone is there with their names inscribed, actually FrankÕ s other son, Robert Spaulding and his wife, Mae are buried in the grave and the names on the stone were never correctly changed.

I would like to thank Spaulding family members, Brenda Ross and Theresa Gagliardi for their interest and impute, as I enjoyed hearing from them.

Letters to the Editor

Thanks for scholars support To the Adirondack Journal: The 12th running of Race the Train was filled with excitement on a beautiful day. Runners from as far away as Texas joined to participate in the 8.4 mile race. Among the 200 racers were many of our very own Johnsburg Central students and teachers. It was inspiring to see racers spanning generations from age 14 to 74.

The winner of the MenÕ s Division was our own Paul Allison, now residing in Jericho, Vermont, finishing the race in 45 minutes and 42 seconds! Mary Hallet of Gloversville was the top female finisher, with a time of 58 min. 20 seconds. A short one mile family run took place after the main race with around 30 participants racing.

Our sincere gratitude is extended to Saratoga and North Creek Railway for hosting Race the Train. Special thanks go out to all our sponsors, particularly National Grid, North Country Imports, Barton International, TC Murphy Lumber, Basil and Wicks, OP FrederickÕ s, Peaceful Valley Lumber, Braley and Noxon Hardware, Glens Falls National Bank, Hornbeck Boats, Creative Stage Lighting, StewartÕ s Shops, Saratoga and North Creek Railway, Community Bank, Upstate Insurance Agency, North East Promotional Group ,and Garwood Boats. Also, thanks to StewartÕ s, TOPS Market, The Wevertown Country Store, BiscuitÕ s Bakery and CafŽ Sarah for generous donations of water and food. A big thanks goes out to all the local businesses who contributed to our raffle and offered special discounts to our runners.

Lastly, we would like to thank the many volunteers who helped in all aspects of the race. here are many tasks to oversee such as timing, water stations, registration and safety details.

Without each and every volunteer, we could not have staged this race. The proceeds from the race will assist Johnsburg Dollars for Scholars in funding scholarships for JCS graduates as they continue their education. Again, many thanks to everyone for making the race a success!

Responds to letter

To the Adirondack Journal: I was happy to see the letter about the new health center in Warrensburg penned by three prominent women from that town, one a former Hudson HeadwatersÕ board member, another the wife of a former board member. I couldnÕ t agree more that Hudson Headwaters has benefited from strong support from the Town of Warrensburg for decades. There are many, many people who deserve our thanks in Warrensburg and beyond.

We have also benefited from the support of communities that are home to our health centers, like Bolton Landing, Chester/ Horicon, Indian Lake, North Creek/Minerva, and Schroon Lake.

People from these communities come to Warrensburg for urgent care (walk in, without appointment) that is available seven days a week and six evenings.

As for the new health center that is now rising on Main Street in Warrensburg, we need to add even more to the honor roll for their generous involvement. We are grateful to the Schultz and Himoff families from Brant Lake, and the Wolgin family of Bolton Landing. We are grateful to the Charles R. Wood Foundation, StewartÕ s Shops and the Dake Family Foundation, Glens Falls National Bank, Adirondack Radiology Associates and Price Chopper. The list goes on. Thanks to these generous people and organizations, Hudson Headwaters is well on its way to raising its goal of $2 million toward the new health center.

Once construction is completed, Hudson Headwaters will hold a public event to dedicate the new health center. I hope that there is room enough to accommodate all the people who deserve our thanks.

Awareness day planned To the Adirondack Journal: Sept. 9 is the 15th International Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder Awareness Day. FASD Awareness Day was created to alert people to the importance of abstinence from alcohol during pregnancy and the need to provide effective services for individuals and families impacted by these disorders.

Birth defects that come under the umbrella of FASD are 100% preventable. When a pregnant woman ingests alcohol so does her fetus. Alcohol is a poisonous drug and in any amount or any kind does irreparable damage to the fetus. This damage may range from a slight learning problem to severe retardation and physical deformities. It can also cause miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth.

Yet, a recent study involving focus groups of childbearing age women published in the American Journal of Health Education showed that women acknowledged the risks and consequences of drinking alcohol during pregnancy, but many held common misconceptions. Some women thought it alright to continue consuming alcohol until the pregnancy was confirmed. Some thought it okay to drink certain kinds of alcohol and that drinking during the third trimester (last three months) was not harmful. Others thought that drinking small amounts of alcohol was acceptable and some said that their health care providers agreed that it was okay to drink small amounts.

Other study findings were: That a woman’s partner, family and friends influence her use of alcohol during pregnancy; That

women rely on the Internet and health care providers for information about the risks of alcohol consumption; and That the information received is not always consistent or accurate.

Every child deserves a healthy start and that happens in its motherÕ s womb.

For accurate information about FASD, you may visit the CDC atcdc.gove/fasd or fasdcenter.samhsa.gov/ . For information about alcohol and pregnancy visitcdc.gov/NCBDDD/fasd/ alcohol-use.html ornofas.org/.

If you or a friend need help with drug or alcohol related issues call 1-877-846-7369 for available help in your area.

Reacts to editorial To the Adirondack Journal: Your recent editorial about the expense of quarantining two American victims of Ebola virus was thought provoking. I share your frustration about funding priorities. Ebola has caused hundreds of deaths and we hope a cure and treatment are in the not-too-distant future.

But to put this in perspective, in the early 2000Õ s when multi-drug resistant TB was discovered, it cost NYC up to half million to quarantine each patient. TB is treatable with a pretty inexpensive regimen of drugs IF people get tested, treated and take their full course of treatment. Let us not forget that millions of people die from TB, AIDS and Malaria. And that millions of children die in Africa of vaccine treatable diseases.

Den Pub readers might be interested to learn that thanks to the global vaccine alliance called GAVI, hundreds of millions of children were vaccinated and six million lives were saved since 2000. Because many more villages in Africa have access to health care and vaccines, many families no longer watch their children die of measles, diarrhea and pneumonia. An additional three million childrenÕ s lives will be saved if GAVI’s multi-national budget is funded for the next five years. New anti-rotoviral drugs (anti-pneumonia) are available but need refrigeration and staff and a way to get them into isolated towns and villages.

The 25 percent growth in African economy due to health improvements has yet to diminish the view expressed in your editorial of hopeless frustration. I invite you to educate your readers with what is working in global humanitarian foreign aid. To counteract that, please join me in asking your Member of Congress, (mine is Congressman Bill Owens) to co-sponsor House Res 688 which supports GAVI, the global alliance for vaccines. The Resolution was recently introduced by Congresswoman Betty McCollum. Nine Republican and nine Democratic members have provided strong bi-partisan initial co-sponsorship. Tell your representative to co-sponsor. Save lives.

Record numbers seen at the Chestertown Farmer’s Market

By Mauranda Stahl-Sorensen mauranda@denpubs.com

CHESTERTOWN Ñ Nearly 1100 individuals attended the Wednesday mid-day farmerÕ s market Aug. 6 in downtown Chestertown.

Celebrating its third season, market president

and business alliance publicist Cindy Mead explains the marketÕ s history and the track they are on to remain successful. Ò The market has been a boom to the community,Ó Mead said. Ò The Chestertown and Brant Lake areas see many second home owners and weekly rentals in the months of July and August. These people are looking for fresh, local

produce and Adirondack crafts and gifts.Ó In an effort to meet that need, local business women from the Tri-Lakes Business Alliance formed a group and were granted monies from the Town of Chester to create the market. Ò On opening day in 2012, we had 14 vendors,Ó Mead said. Ò We had no idea how many people would come to shop but that first year was a huge success.Ó Many local businesses have thrived during the summer months in downtown Chestertown, some restaurants run specials on market days to encourage the economic prosperity brought on by number of people walking the streets on market days.

This year, the market averages 25 to 30 vendors each week, offering meats, cheeses, breads,

baked goods, fresh fish, coffee, vegetables, maple products, jewelry, adirondack gifts, crafts, stonewares, paintings, books and much more.

“This is our first year at the market,” said Carrie Garippa, vendor and owner of BeanerÕ s Gourmet Coffee. Ò We travel over an hour to go every week and it has always been worth our while. The customers are wonderful and the vendors and market people have been fantastic.Ó In an effort to make the market a social event for the community organizers added live music to the line up. Recently featured acts include Mark Piper, Curtis Becraft and Rich Ortiz.

The Chestertown FarmerÕ s market takes places Wednesdays 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the front lawn of the Chester Town Hall.

Old fashioned candy shop brings back memories

By Mauranda Stahl-Sorensen

mauranda@denpubs.com

46865

WARRENSBURG Ñ GoodyÕ s has opened its doors independently on Main Street in Warrensburg. Owner, baker, and candy aficionado Carol Ross officially opened for business Aug. 5. Ò I was a waitress my whole life,Ó Ross said. Ò My doctor told me recently that due to a back issue I was going to need to find another line of work.Ó

Ross found that line of work in a hobby she was already performing, candy making. Originally GoodyÕ s opened in 2013 in another location with a local business that has since closed. Ò When my former business partner was ready to close up, I wasnÕ t ready to throw in the towel,Ó Ross said.

Ross moved her business to 3747 Main Street, where she cleaned, painted and set up shop in two short weeks.

GoodyÕ s will be offering mix and match candy by the pound starting at $5.99 per pound, childrenÕ s toys, soy candles, jewelry, snacks and cotton candy. Ò Everyone has that old penny candy store story,Ó Ross said. Ò The story of going into the candy store and picking out your favorite snacks. The problem is there are just none of them left.Ó A few throwback items on the menu include wax bottle drinks, candy whistles, astro pops and salt water taffy. In an effort to please children and candy lover alike Ross has offered to order and source most candy items shoppers are looking for. Ò I love the maples and the butter creams,Ó said Gloria Loffler, shop patron. Ò I really like

anything with cinnamon and Carol is looking to find them.”

Ross explained that she wanted to create a space that was more than just another storefront. She wanted a place where people could come to chat and take their time to browse. In an effort to make that wish a reality Ross placed a table with oversized chairs and a chess and checkers board in a corner of the shop to attract youth. Ò When kids come in they can get their picture taken and framed where we add it to our wall,Ó Ross said.

The wall, a picket fence structure lining one side of the building, holds photos of a number of smiling children holding their favorite sweet or sour treat. Ò I want to make it clear that this is not my store,Ó said Ross. Ò It is their (the childrenÕ s) store.

Including the community and keeping reasonable prices is the only way to make it.Ó

Hours and Information

Summer hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Diamond said he was pleased with the emergence of support for the civic center, from both the private and public sectors. In recent weeks a citizensÕ group named the Coalition to Save Our Civic Center formed. Spearheaded by French Mountain Commons mall owner Ed Moore and Adirondack Regional Chamber of Commerce president Peter Aust, the group cited its mission as assuring the future of the venue.

The arena, first of its kind in the area, has in the past 35 years hosted a halfdozen hockey teams, nationally-known rock bands, country music performers, countless basketball tournaments and trade shows.

The day after the auction, Ed Moore said the outcome of the auction was favorable to the prospects of the Coalition to own and operate the civic center. Ò This presents an opportunity for our coalition to bid on the civic center and this outcome positions us to take control of it under a public-private partnership,Ó he said.

Area public officials also came forward recently, stating they’d entertain proposals of regional funding. Although months ago Warren County supervisors rebuffed DiamondÕ s pleas for money to pay toward operational expenses, the supervisors showed interest last week in an idea raised by Queensbury resident John Salvadore to establish a public authority to own and operate the venue.

Diamond said he appreciated the new expressions of interest.

“The community now is finally realizing the civic center is a regional asset, he said. Ò Apparently people do care about what happens to the facility.Ó Diamond added that the city is now beginning to prepare a budget for 2015, and appropriations for the civic center are not included in the spending plan.

City officials said that people and organizations interested in acquiring the civic center are welcome to submit offers Ñ with no minimum bid required Ñ to the city Comptroller by 11 a.m. Sept. 12. Included in the sale is the centerÕ s 3.5-acre site plus a parking lot nearby at the intersection of Oakland Avenue and Fredella Avenue. All bids must honor an existing three-year lease contract with the Adirondack Flames to conduct hockey games in the arena.

Aust said the Coalition had raised $600,000 as of Monday morning, and theyÕ d likely be soon submitting a purchase offer. Ò WeÕ ll be developing a strategy of how we can be a part of the new ownership,Ó Aust said. Ò Our hope is that Warren County will look at the civic center as a regional asset and partner with our group so the center will continue, over the long term, to provide entertainment and sports events.Ó Although many community leaders have voiced concerns that the civic center would be razed or put to a use that doesnÕ t support commerce as the center traditionally has, Diamond said he was welcoming to all offers, regardless of the fate

of the venue. Ò The eventual use of the civic center is up to the new owners,Ó he said. Ò If someone comes up with a different vision for the building, we couldnÕ t ignore that offer.Ó Warren County Supervisor-at-large Doug Beaty of Queensbury said he believed that since Saratoga and Washington County benefit from the center, they should help pay for the facility alongside Warren County Ñ either through a public appropriation or by a ticket surcharge. Ò The Glens Falls Civic Center is a great asset for the entire region,Ó he said.

Beaty added that he heard that one person was prepared to bid Monday, but that this individual had backed out when he saw that no one else was submitting bids.

Lake Luzerne Supervisor Gene Merlino said that his recent proposal to change the Warren County sales tax revenue distribution would help direct more about $400,000 money to Glens Falls, which could offset most of the civic centerÕ s losses.

Merlino has called for basing sales tax revenue allocation more on municipalitiesÕ population rather than property wealth.

Local hockey fan T.J. Wade said he was disappointed in the auctionÕ s outcome, because he expected that an entrepreneur possessing the business sense necessary to make the civic center profitable would submit an offer to buy it. Ò Purchasing the civic center was never put up for a public referendum,Ó he said. Ò Local taxpayers are tired of paying for its debt.Ó Ed Moore said that if the CoalitionÕ s bid goes forward and is accepted, the future is bright for the civic center. He estimated that the venue is responsible for $20 million or more annually in revenue for area commerce. He suggested that lining up corporate sponsorships would be one way of offsetting the venueÕ s operating deficits. Ò Our coalition is getting more and more support every day,Ó he said. Ò The civic center has great value to area communities.Ó

Leadership program announced for 3rd year

NORTH CREEK Ñ Students from Johnsburg, North Warren, Indian Lake, Warrensburg and Wells will come together for a third year to take part in the Adirondack Teen Leadership and service (ATLAS) program.

The ATLAS program is designed to encourage and promote community leadership and service. Deb Morris, owner of Barkeater Chocolates and Johnsburg Youth Committee Member is heading the program which will run from Oct. to March.

10 to 13 teens are chosen each year to participate. Each month a different facilitator from the northeast will lead a session designed to encourage independent thinking, Morris explained.

The 2014 ATLAS class participated in a day of service at the Open Door Mission in Glens Falls, where students prepared, cooked, cleaned and served meals to area residents in need. This yearÕ s class will have a day of service; as well as, a social outing that will include ATLAS alumni.
