WARRENSBURG Ñ The areaÕ s top leading guru on economic development told Warrensburg officials this week that job creation and prosperity depends on thinking regionally, having up-to-date infrastructure in place and cooperating with other municipalities and government agencies. Ed Bartholomew, Warren County EDC President met with town of Warrensburg government and community leaders recently to discuss prospects for economic development in town Ñ and to update them on ongoing efforts to spur the local economy. Bartholomew said that out-of-state enterprises were interested in building a woodpellet manufacturing plant in Warrensburg or Chester, and he had met with officials of one of the firms, along with representatives of state agencies involved in permitting such a new operation. He said that the company in question was seeking to build a plant that would employ 20 to 25 people and have a $20 million annual impact on the area. CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

Children used hand-held magnifiers to look at plankton harvested from the lake and search for spiny water fleas as part of the second annual ESSLA Floating Classroom that was held on Aug. 7 through a collaboration of the East Shore Schroon Lake Association (ESSLA), Word of Life Fellowship of Schroon Lake, and the Adirondack Watershed Institute of Paul Smith’s College. The Floating Classroom was filled with members of ESSLA along with their children and grandchildren as well as members of the Schroon Lake Association. They spent two hours experiencing a hands-on scientific and educational program conducted on Schroon Lake by members of the Adirondack Watershed Institute. They were informed of the effects of runoff from storms, fertilizers and septic systems to the ecosystem of the lake as well as threats from invasive plants and animals such as milfoil, curly leaf pondweed and water chestnuts.

War Eagle! LG, H-L join together for football By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com
LAKE GEORGE Ñ The athletic programs of Lake George and Hadley-Luzerne high schools have collaborated on a new joint venture Ñ a football team representing both schools. This week, officials of both schools and team members
expressed enthusiasm about the new joint program. Lake George has a long-standing tradition of hardhitting football with an aggressive approach and strategic play-making. Over the last 35 years, the Lake George team has won plenty of league and Sectional trophies Ñ and in 1997 they battled their way to the state championship finals.
But in recent years, with enrollment declining drastically, they’ve had trouble even fielding a team with the minimum number of players required. In 2010, for instance Lake George started the season with only 22 players, and they had to end their football season early because they could only field 15 players due to injuries.

August 30, 2014 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. Photo provided

Continued from page 1 Regardless of what town such an enterprise locates in, residents of the region will benefit because of the jobs and the additional money circulating locally, he said. Such a regional mindset is particularly appropriate in boosting tourism, as vacationers typically seek many activities throughout the area, he said. Bartholomew noted that a tourism summit among executives of the major area attractions, tourism-related entrepreneurs and community leaders, is scheduled for Oct. 30. Ò We have to think regionally and work together,Ó he said. Ò Tourists know they like the area, without knowing the particular town they are in at any point.Ó Bartholomew also praised the Saratoga-North Creek Railway officials for pursuing new deals to haul freight. Ò The railway is a good example of all the great assets this region has,Ó he said. He said that ideas now circulating for enhancing tourism in the region include developing tours of historic sites as well as galleries and artistsÕ studios Ñ which are plentiful here, Bartholomew said. Tourism by art enthusiasts is a growing trend, he said, noting that 42,000 people visited The Hyde in Glens Falls last year specifically to see the Georgia OÕ Keeffe exhibit. Infrastructure Ñ whether itÕ s municipal sewage treatment, good roads or broadband access Ñ need to be in place to attract new industries, he said. Also, people are increasingly discriminating about where they choose to live, and they want communities that are convenient and aesthetically pleasing for pedestrians and bicyclists, he said.

Ed Bartholomew to be aggressive in lining up grant funding so they can readily partner with business owners to enhance their storefronts, he said, noting that attractive streetscapes are vital. Grant funding depends on having a municipal master plan in place that is backed up with real data on what local people want in their community, he said. He added that WarrensburgÕ s recent survey was Ò very helpfulÓ in this regard. Bartholomew said Warrensburg now is on a roll, with the expanded Warrensburg Health Center under construction and the new Price Chopper supermarket nearby, Ñ with both enterprises providing jobs as well as drawing many people into town. He predicted the Warrensburg Health Center would be attracting new residents as well as businesses and industry, because it was bringing a sense of vitality to town as well as providing accessibility to health care, particularly new specialized services. Ò You have a lot of assets Ñ this is a great area,Ó he told Warrensburg officials. Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Geraghty offered his thoughts. Ò WeÕ Õ ve been very busy making contacts and assisting buinesses seeking to locate here,Ó he said. Ò WeÕ ve got a lot of projects now underway in town.Ó

ESSLA lake stewards work the shores HORICON Ñ The ESSLA Lake Stewards are being kept very busy at the Horicon Boat Launch located at the southern end of Schroon Lake. ESSLA has had four stewards on duty seven days a week this summer. Thus far in the boating season, they have inspected approximately 1,500 watercraft for the presence of invasive species to assure that they are not transported into or out of the Schroon Lake and River. They have found and removed Eurasian Milfoil and Water Chestnuts from a number of watercraft and thus avoided their spread. The Stewards are also participating in a pilot program by the DEC. The program is intended to assure that any resident water in a boats bilge or live well is dry and if not is flushed by the Stewards. This helps to assure that organisms in resident water that may be an invasive species are flushed from those areas. RIGHT: Justice Parker and Alyssa Jensen working at the Horicon Boat Launch.

Designer labels available in Warrensburg at Runway 67
mauranda@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ Entrepreneur and Ebay store owner Tina Combs is bringing styles from stores like MacyÕ s and Bloomingdales to Main Street in Warrensburg. Ò We have visited the area every year on vacation,Ó Combs said. Ò My husband is from Warrensburg and we just love the area. People are so friendly here and there is so much recreational activity.Ó Combs, a downstate New York native, recently moved back to the area after a 16-year stay in Minnesota. Arriving the first week in June, and sequentially purchasing a home in Thurman, Combs saw a need in the community and with her experience rose to the occasion. Ò I ran an Ebay store since 2002, the name of the store is Runway 67,Ó Combs said. Ò I taught some Ebay classes and I created a supply chain for merchandise during those years.Ó Runway 67 opened in midJuly and Combs said she has since received a lot of positive feedback from the community and also tourists. Items on display at 3897 Main Street Runway 67 include handbags, scarves, jewelry, dresses and sweaters in sizes 0 to 5x. Designer brands include Ralph Lauren, DKNY, Silver Jeans, Guess, Cable and Gage and Charter Club. Ò I never thought I would have a physical store after operating online for the last 12 years,Ó Combs said. Ò I developed the supply and I thought why not pass those discounts on to the people in the community who are looking for name brands at an affordable cost.Ó Affordability and variety is something that Combs has taken seriously, in her efforts to set up the new Runway 67 storefront. With a background in retail as well as marketing and merchandising Combs crossed all her TÕ s with market research. She is currently offering back to school sales of $20 or under and a special on womenÕ s skirts sizes extra small to extra large for $6.99. Ò Part of living in this community is about getting to know people,Ó Combs said. Ò This store is all about what people want and I would like feedback on what people would like to see.Ó Runway 67 will be offering shoppers the opportunity to special order items. Combs will also be offering private consultations by appointment for those looking for a more intimate shop-
ping experience with a veteran fashion connoisseur. While discussing future plans for the store Combs mentioned the idea of a runway show prior to Christmas and the possibility of a high end consignment boutique. Combs also plans to be a resource to customers purchasing merchandise from her racks. Ò My retail experience as a young adult gave me a good idea of how things are displayed and purchased,Ó said Combs. Ò I have also written articles for Ebay on the handling, care and washing of many of the unique fabrics of the brands I carry. My plan is to provided this community with a high end, affordable and unique shopping experience.Ó

A board of legislators: We deserve a study
A
year ago Denton Publications ran a handful of articles shining a light on the pros and cons of a county board of supervisors versus a board of legislators. We then took a stand in this column, advocating for the latter. Since no discussion or study has transpired on the subject, we feel it is again time to encourage the Essex County Board of Supervisors to disband in favor of a board of legislators. And here is why: It will save taxpayers thousands. By our estimate, the move would easily save county and town taxpayers a minimum of $500,000 annually. It would also provide residents representation at the county who have no other interest other than county business. The board also would no longer be ruled by the weighted voting power of the Ò big threeÓ Ñ the towns of Ticonderoga, Moriah and North Elba Ñ no legislator would have more voting power than any other. That would effectively erase the current squabbling over whatÕ s in the best interest of one town, replacing it with what is in the best interest of the people in a particular district and the county as a whole. Legislators could focus on county business, time would not be lost on bringing people up to speed on county issues and time management would certainly improve. Seven people sitting around a boardroom table with an equal vote and no outside agenda would most certainly get more accomplished than 18 with a foot in more than one camp. Perhaps that is why more than 70 percent of the counties in New York have already gone the way of a board of legislators. A board of legislators is a more efficient, more accountable form of county government. All you have to do is compare Essex County with nearby Franklin County Ñ which switched to a seven-member board of legislators in 1970 Ñ to quickly see the tremendous cost savings, both on the town and county level. On the town level, the average annual salary for a part-time supervisor in Franklin County last year was $10,735. Only one supervisor, in Harrietstown, was offered health insurance. In Essex County, on the other hand, the average annual salary last year for a town supervisor was $28,666, while 14 of 18 were offered health insurance. That means Essex CountyÕ s 18 supervisors
made $312,000 more in 2013 than Franklin CountyÕ s 19 part-time supervisors. Then, at the county level, the seven members of the Franklin County Board of Legislators made $108,000 last year compared to $319,137 in Essex County Ñ a difference of $211,137. Combine those two numbers and Essex CountyÕ s 18 supervisors cost more than half a million dollars more last year than Franklin CountyÕ s 19 supervisors and 7 legislators, with 12,000 less residents. Franklin County has 51,579 residents compared to Essex CountyÕ s 39,302. Add to that the cost of benefits both at the town and county for 18 people and the final tally no doubt pushes that number closer to $1 million annually. WeÕ ve heard the arguments in favor of a board of supervisors. Some believe the constituent service is better with a full-time, accessible town supervisor and officials argue that the county interaction with towns is better under the current governing body. But as a taxpayer, you have to ask yourself: Is it worth a million dollars more out of pocket each year? Under a board of legislators, each town would still be represented locally by a part-time supervisor, as well as a town board. Residents would still be represented by a legislator at the county level. Better representation for less money, if you ask us. But donÕ t take our word for it Ñ ask the 44 counties in New York that are already under a legislative form of government. Ask them if they miss the cost and bickering associated with a board of supervisors and a weighted vote. Making both the legislator and supervisor positions part-time also would open them to a different slate of candidates like people who might like to serve but are unable to do so in a full-time capacity. Local government truly began to go awry when elected positions evolved into an occupation instead of an opportunity to serve a community. Our supervisors should keep that in mind, and be open-minded enough to publicly discuss the subject of a board of legislators, and then commission a study to determine if that method of government would come with the kind of tax savings we feel it will. We, as taxpayers, deserve to know once and for all. Ñ

Turning Back the Pages By Jean Hadden One Hundred Years Ago – August, 1914 Famous boat out of commission
Farewell to Ankle-Deep! How those words pull at the heart strings of the sporting populace of Lake George and vicinity, for the people of northern New York have learned to admire the big speed boat, which has won for Warren County a high place in the sport of motordom throughout the world. Count Casimer S. MankowskiÕ s Ankle-Deep is no more. The mahogany craft which won such high honors on the water will never be put in commission again to race for trophies against the speed demons of the world. In the races at Buffalo during the first part of the month of August, 1914, the Ankle-Deep was so badly burned by reason of the rupture of the gasoline feed pipe that she is practically a total loss to Count Mankowski, as no insurance can be carried on boats of her character. Countess Mankowski has received word that the Ankle-Deep was practically destroyed and the count and his mechanician were safe. The famous thirty-two foot long boat will never again sail over the clear waters of Ò Old Horicon,Ó as Lake George was once known. From the time that the Dixie boats began to win world wide recognition up until 1912 there had been no marked advance in the development of reliable racing boats. There had been freaks and boats capable of short fast spurts but the Ankle-Deep, with her one 300 horse power motor, capable of traveling over 50 miles an hour, was the first great long distance racer in several years to break all records and set an entirely new standard for the speed craft of the future. The count is a mighty good sport, having been bitten deep by the racing bug and it is a fairly safe wager that another season will see him in the game again with another world beater. Whether there will ever be another craft to succeed the famous racing boat is, however, very much a matter of doubt. No matter how fast boats may go in the years to come, Lake George and Warren County will always remember with pride the name of the beautiful queen that carried her flag to victory on the Saint Lawrence and will ever delight the honor of the lovable unassuming man who could laugh at defeat with a whole heart. (Note- Count Casimer Mankowski lived for several summers in Bolton Landing with his wife, Lena, at Tallwoods, which was in later years named the Countessa Restaurant before it closed. Before coming to Lake George, he raced motorcycles in events around the northeast. He then raced several fast boats on Lake George and elsewhere. They were Ankle-Deep, Ankle-Deep Too, Hummer, The Scat and The Gem. On May 17, 2002, Bateaux Below discovered a 25 foot long shipwreck on the bottom of Lake George, with nine decades of algae over its white painted hull that was believed to be The Gem, one of MankowskiÕ s vessels. There are many differing stories about what ever became of him but the internet states that he died of typhoid fever on April 23, 1917 while spending the winter in New Orleans, Louisiana. He was only 38 years old, a good age for a hero of his magnitude to die. Ò Live fast, die young and have a good looking corpse.Ó )
Harry Houdini opens magic show
This year, in 1914, magician Harry Houdini, 40, has attempted to launch a straight magic show in England called the Grand Magical Revue, but the public expected him to be the famous escape artist and being disappointed, the show soon folded. It
was last year, in 1913, that he built his Chinese water torture cell, in which he was tied upside down before his escape and he performed this act with a circus in Germany. This year in England, Houdini was the founder of the new MagicianÕ s Club. He later returned to America on the liner Imperator and baffled ex-president Theodore Roosevelt with a spirit slate test. In New York he presented Ò Walking through a brick wall,Ó for a brief run. With the outbreak of World War I, he has thrown himself into the war effort selling war bonds and teaching soldiers how to free themselves from German restraints. (Note Ð Harry Houdini, whose real name was Erik Weisz, was born in 1874 in Budapest, Hungary. He began as a trapeze performer and appeared in vaudeville for his entire career. He gained a reputation as an illusionist and escape artist. His mother, Cecilia Steiner Weisz died July 16, 1913 of a stroke and Houdini was devastated by her loss. He spent a considerable amount of time for the rest of his life attending sŽ ances, trying to contact her in the spirit world and crusading against phony spiritualists. He died in 1926 on Halloween of a ruptured appendix. His last words were, “I’m tired of fighting.” After his death, his wife, Wilhelmina Rahner, waited to receive a message from him as he had promised her that he would. She never told anyone if he had kept his word.)
Hungry thieves raid village
A band of hungry burglars is operating in Warrensburgh. Several houses have been entered at night and considerable loot has been secured by the thieves, consisting mostly of small articles of comparatively little value and trifling amounts of money. The lauder seems to be the center of attack in most cases and the invaders have feasted on the premises and also taken eatables away with them, particularly canned preserves, etc. Some time between midnight and daylight, Sunday morning, Aug. 30, 1914, three houses were entered. They were the homes of Senator James A. Emerson, Dr. James E. Goodman and Louis E. Reoux. No one heard the thieves or caught a glimpse of them. At the Goodman residence an entrance was gained through the dining room window. Disregarding a large amount of silverware and cut glass on the side board, they ransacked the refrigerator in the rear of the house and made away with considerable food, milk and cream. In leaving they took a coat belonging to Mrs. Goodman. Tracks under the window showed that a woman was with the gang. Senator EmersonÕ s house was entered through a window in the reception hall and the front door was then braced open o facilitate a quick getaway. A silver card case valued at $6 was taken and $3.15 was taken from a jacket. Constables were placed on night patrol by the town board but in spite of their vigilance the residence of Jane Davis, on lower Main Street was raided and 45 cans of preserves were taken from the cellar and also a quantity of fire wood from the yard. The refrigerator of the Wayside Hotel in Lewisville was also cleaned out. Orlin Magee caught a masked black man in his house but was unable to capture him. This is the first glimpse caught of any of the invaders and it is supposed that the gang is composed of followers of the fair that is going on at the present time. (Note Ð Dr. GoodmanÕ s house is today Eileen FrasierÕ s Seasons Bed and Breakfast, next door south of Faithanne BuckÕ s Emerson House. Louis ReouxÕ s house is todayÕ s the Senior Citizens, 1873 Miles Thomas House.) In other news, burglars are operating in Fort Edward with a boldness that is astounding. The residents are demanding pro-
Letters to the Editor
Editorial gets it right To the Adirondack Journal: Finally!! Someone gets it right. Your editorial in the July 19 Times of Ti, regarding the defensive use of guns, is to be applauded. When so much of the liberal news media is constantly on the attack regarding gun ownership, you have written a piece that will make all the gun control advocates shake their heads with disgust. You canÕ t reason with them, but thanks for your valiant effort. Over the last 30 or so years, our country has systematically shut down thousands of institutions for the mentally ill and placed them in mainstream society. The results are and have been predictable. Most of the atrocities committed by people with guns should never have happened because they shouldnÕ t have had access to the guns in the first place. It is time to place the blame squarely where it belongs… on the person behind the weapon that is used illegally. To cite two
cases, the Newtown, CT shooting was committed by a clearly mentally disturbed young man whose own mother allowed him access to weapons he should have never been near. The response was, and still is, to blame the so-called assault rifle. Recently, near the University of California in Santa Barbara another disturbed young man stabbed three people to death before going on a shooting rampage that killed three more. Most of the focus from the media was on the shooting deaths and very little was mentioned about the three stabbings. As a long time member of the NRA, I receive a monthly publication called American Rifleman, which contains a column called Armed Citizen which highlights several episodes of people who were not victims of a crime because they were armed. Virtually none of these stories make national news. Your editorial gives hope to those who believe in our second amendment. Roger J. Nolfe Ticonderoga
tection from the authorities, but the looting has gone on with apparent contempt for the police.
Rampaging weather
On a Fort Ann farm recently, during a thunder storm, lightening struck a field of potatoes, ripped open several hills and baked some of the tubers to a crisp. On top of one of the opened hills was found an English coin dated 1780. At an early hour, Monday morning, Aug. 17, 1914, an electrical storm passed over Hague and Ticonderoga which is reported to be the most severe that this section has had in a decade. Lightening struck in several places and the damage is estimated at several thousand dollars. The Cleveland cottage, at Hague, was struck and Mr. Cleveland, on the front piazza, was severely shocked. The residence of Wallace Jeffers at Ticonderoga was struck and the chimney was demolished. Four cows, owned by a farmer named McCaughlin, five miles from Ticonderoga, were killed as they stood under a tree in the pasture. Three barns along the Hague - Ticonderoga Road were burned and numerous trees and fences were destroyed.
World War I
The European war is affecting America in many ways. Although we are fortunate to not becoming embroiled in the general conflict, we cannot escape some of its evil effects. Even now the prices of the necessities of life are rapidly advancing and the minor luxuries have already gone beyond he reach of persons of moderate means. The beloved head of the Catholic Church, Pope Pius X, died Aug. 2, 1914. The gentle spirit of the aged pontiff was appalled by the inhuman slaughter in Europe in the great war he so desperately sought to avert. He died of a broken heart.

Sembrich ends season
The Sembrich brings its 2014 summer season to a close in grand fashion on Saturday, Aug. 30, with a gala performance featuring acclaimed Metropolitan Opera mezzo-soprano Stephanie Blythe in Ò WeÕ ll Meet Again,Ó The Songs of Kate Smith. Tickets are $125 and include music, wine and delicacies at 6:30 p.m., a concert in the Sembrich studio at 7:30 p.m., and a lakeside reception following the performance. Although Stephanie Blythe is renowned internationally for her performances on the opera stage in repertoire ranging from Verdi and Wagner to Ricky Ian Gordon, “We’ll Meet Again” reflects the singer’s deep commitment to the Great American Songbook. The program features songs made famous by Kate Smith, the popular music icon whose stirring voice helped America find its way out of the Great Depression and World War II. Ò I believe these songs are very much a part of our song tradition,Ó says Blythe. Ò They need to be sung and people need to hear them.Ó Accompanying Stephanie Blythe in Ò WeÕ ll Meet AgainÓ is pianist and music director Craig Terry. Among the popular standards highlighted in SaturdayÕ s concert are Ò WeÕ ll Meet Again,Ó Ò The White Cliffs of Dover,Ó Ò When You Wish Upon a StarÓ and the iconic classic Ò God Bless America,Ó a song thatÕ s still played, in Kate SmithÕ s rendition, during the seventh-inning stretch at New York Yankees home games. “I’m very proud to be an American singer,” affirms Blythe. Ò I feel itÕ s a responsibility as well as a joy to sing the music that is ours, and thatÕ s why I love this program so much.Ó Throughout the summer, The Sembrich has commemorated the outset of World War I in a series entitled 1914: Summer of Destiny, tracing the path that led Marcella Sembrich, over time, from the Alps to the Adirondacks.

War Eagles
Continued from page 1 This yearÕ s merger with Hadley-Luzerne, however, has not only brought in 16 more players and enabled Lake George to field a Junior Varsity team for the first time since 2000, but it’s also boosted the Lake George studentsÕ participation in the program, Lake George football coach Jeff Bennett said. This year, four more Lake George students than normal have signed up for football, boosting the merged team to at least 42 players Ñ the most in recent history, he said. Ò Football is a numbers game,Ó Bennett said. Ò The addition of the Hadley-Luzerne students is really going to change our program and make it very competitive.Ó The two schools are merely ten miles apart, and the Hadley-Luzerne players will be practicing and playing on Lake GeorgeÕ s football field. They will be competing in Section II Class C, their traditional level Ñ although Lake George has for several years been playing in Class D. Hadley-Luzerne has not had a football team since 1983. Bennett said that the Hadley-Luzerne students on the football team are fitting in well, having gained gridiron experience at the elementary-school level in the Corinth Youth Football League. Plus, theyÕ ve already proven themselves in the two schoolÕ s combined wrestling team, merged in 2008, several of the Hadley-Luzerne wrestlers were Section II Class C champions. Also, several of the Hadley-LuzerneÕ s basketball team players Ñ who are accomplished athletes Ñ are now playing football, Bennett said. The merged team will be adopting the same name as the combined wrestling squad, the WarEagles. The term combines the monikers of the Lake George Warriors and the Hadley-Luzerne Eagles. Ò The Hadley-Luzerne players have athletic ability, they work hard, and theyÕ re really coachable,Ó Bennett said. Ò They are interested and dedicated to football Ñ they donÕ t miss practice.Ó Matt Howard, a French teacher at Hadley-Luzerne High is serving as an assistant coach for the WarEagles football team. Last year, he served in the same role at Queensbury High School Ñ and the Spartans enjoyed a perfect 13-0 season and captured the state championship. Howard Ñ who will be concentrating on mentoring the teamÕ s running backs, linebackers and special teams Ñ said the Hadley-Luzerne players were enthusiastic about the new joint gridiron venture. Ò The kids are really pumped Ñ theyÕ re excited about playing football Ñ they love it,Ó he said.
Howard, an All-American fullback at Hobart College, said the new depth of the team due to the merger is likely to boost the level of play. Ò The kids are excited to be competing for spots as starters on the team,Ó he said. Ò The team has a lot of potential and itÕ s headed in the right direction.Ó Bennett said that several Hadley-Luzerne players already are demonstrating that theyÕ re ready for positions as starters. Tyler Vanderbogart will likely start as a fullback and defensive tackle Ñ and Mike Sutliff and Derek Visscher will probably both start as defensive ends, Bennett said. Ò For sure, weÕ ve got the talent now,Ó he said. The veteran coach added that the merger makes a considerable difference in providing talent for future Varsity WarEagles teams: the collaboration with Hadley-Luzerne has now boosted the Modified football team to 47 players.
Community excited about football revival
At a practice this week, Hadley-Luzerne players also expressed enthusiasm over the merger. Tyler Vanderbogard said he appreciated the opportunity to play football, and that it would help keep him in shape for wrestling this winter. Ò A lot of my friends have talked about playing football for years, so this means a lot to us,Ó he said. Ò WeÕ re getting along great with Lake George Ñ weÕ re meshing well.Ó Tuesday, Hadley-Luzerne High School Principal Beecher Baker said that the football merger was creating excitement among students and parents. Ò For years, people wanted football at Hadley-Luzerne,Ó he said. Ò Nothing builds school spirit like football.Ó

Baker said that Corinth Coach Chris Doody had dug out the vintage Ò Wooden CanoeÓ trophy from his schoolÕ s basement Ñ in the late 1970s and 1980s, it had been presented to the winner of the annual football game between the two rivals. Baker said he and Doody plan to once again put that coveted trophy to use. Ò WeÕ ll be reviving an old tradition,Ó he said. As Baker programmed his schoolÕ s new digital sign Tuesday to announce the first interscholastic football game in 30 years involving local students Ñ the season opener Sept. 5 against Corinth Ñ he realized the significance of what he was doing. Ò It was unreal,Ó he said. CENTER: Veteran Lake George Football Coach Jeff Bennett demonstrates a blocking strategy to several players on the new WarEagles team during their practice Aug. 22.

In brief Return of banner requested
THURMAN Ñ Each year the day after the Thurman Townwide Sale close, volunteers go out to take down the materials and store the reusable ones for the next year. This year there was a disappearance of one of the banners, described as Ò Pepto-pink,Ó about 12 to 15 feet long, with white lettering that advertises the Thurman Townwide Sale. The banner had been hung on the west side of Route 28, about half a mile north of The Glen, near the historical marker for the Mathew Brady homesite. The committee asks that anyone with knowledge of the bannerÕ s whereabouts email or call Perky Granger, PersisGranger@aol.com or 623-9305. Says Granger, Ò Replacing that banner would cost a good deal of money - more than we can afford with our barebones budget. We hope to get it back.Ó
