Senior center envisioned for Town of Chester I Citizens group forming to explore options By Thom Randall CORRESPONDENT

CHESTER | A movement is now underway to establish a senior center in Chestertown

that will offer a variety of activities geared for area residents in their 60s and older.

Craig Leggett said last week that Linda Muench has been working toward the initiative for some time, and that Ava Ashendorff proposed to the town board at their July meeting to establish a senior center. Ashendorff has stepped for ward to chair the steering committee to found the group, Leggett said.

An initial meeting of the group is to be held in late August, and one of their fi rst decisions to be made is whether the group will encompass Horicon — as so many of the activities in the region are already joint efforts of the two towns.

Leggett said that the board heard requests to locate the proposed senior center at the town of Chester Municipal Center, but town officials suggested that

programming and group organization occur first before space is allocated. A spare room on the second floor of the municipal center has been envisioned as a prospective home base for the group, as town mealsite, the town library, the Chester Wellness Center and other community service groups and located in the municipal center.

Warren County CEO calls for facility upgrades at SUNY Adk.

Lake George Village Wastewater Treatment Plant chief operator Tim Shudt views digital readouts of operations at the village’s sewer plant on Aug. 27. The facility is due to be replaced by fall 2021 with a treatment plant utilizing higher technology — and construction on the $24 million project is to begin this week. Village board members heard Aug. 19 that the plant will cost $248,960 more than they expected just a month ago — due to a compressed construction schedule which calls for contractors to work through two winter seasons in order to meet a state-mandated deadline.

Johnsburg’s ‘History Days’ set for next weekend By Thom Randall CORRESPONDENT

NORTH CREEK | A graveyard walk, a radio re-enactment of a stagecoach robbery and a presentation of personalities from the past are featured in the fourth annual Johnsburg History Days celebration, set primarily for Friday Sept. 6 through Sunday Sept. 8.

Many decades ago, a stagecoach pauses at a stop in the hamlet of Riverside, now known as Riparius, presumably before it heads off to North Creek or elsewhere in northern Warren County. Johnsburg’s upcoming History Days, set for Sept. 6 through Sept. 8, includes a radio play of ‘The Great Stagecoach Robbery’ occurring in 1901. The re-enactment of this famous crime is slated for 2 p.m. Sunday Sept. 8 at North Creek’s Tannery Pond Community Center. Courtesy photo
