WCS eyes building renovations, seeks public’s views New auditorium a possibility By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
WARRENSBURG — Officials of Warrensburg Central School District are seeking to renovate and upgrade their two schools, and they are seeking public input to determine
the scope of the project. The Warrensburg Central school board will be holding a public capital project forum at 6 p.m. Monday, Oct. 24 in the High School cafetorium to explain the proposed renovations — which aren’t expected to impact taxes — as well as review optional upgrades. These additional options include con-
structing a full-fledged high school auditorium, a proposal that gained traction with the public last year. A recent building condition survey identified an array of repairs and upgrades needed to boost efficiency and provide a safe, accommodating environment for learning, Superintendent John Goralski said Tuesday.

Both the high school and elementary school need new handicapped-accessible door handles and locksets, plumbing repairs, new water fountains and new gym bleachers to replace the existing ones that are malfunctioning, he said. In the high school, the public equipment >> See WCS | pg. 10

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A “super PAC” backed by House Republicans announced plans to spend $500,000 against Mike Derrick in the final stretch of New York’s 21st District Congressional race. The independent expenditure will include television advertising in the Albany and Watertown media markets, the Congressional Leadership Fund announced on Friday. “In just two years, Elise Stefanik has delivered for her district and stood as a conservative, results-oriented leader in Congress,” said Ruth Guerra, a CLF spokeswoman. “Mike Derrick, on the other hand, vows to be another rubber stamp to the failed Obama-Clinton agenda that has left hardworking families behind.” The spending influx comes three weeks before voters head to the polls on Nov. 8, and is part of a $10 million package >> See NY-21 | pg. 10

Drug Take-Back Day set for Saturday in Queensbury Annual event slated for Oct. 22 By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
QUEENSBURY — The Warren County Sheriff ’s office is participating in the National Prescription Drug Take-Back day this Saturday, Oct. 22, and area citizens are encouraged to participate. This event follows many prior ones that area law enforcement officials have said were a substantial success. All are welcome to drop off prescription and non-prescription drugs for safe disposal from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday Oct. 22 in the lobby of the sheriff ’s office. The county law enforcement team is particularly seeking the disposal of drugs and are subject to misuse, including painkillers, mood-altering and psychoactive drugs, according to the statement. The sheriff ’s office staff is seeking to prevent not only pill abuse, but theft by collecting potentially dangerous expired,
unused and unwanted prescriptions and over-the-counter medicines for destruction. Studies have indicated that a majority of abused prescription drugs — or those causing accidental poisonings — are obtained from family and friends, including from home medicine cabinets, according to the statement issued Monday by the sheriff ’s office. Another reason for the Drug Take-Back event is that leftover prescriptions can be harmful or fatal when taken in error — like by a youngster — or not under a doctor’s oversight. Also, they can taint public water supplies when flushed down the sink or toilet — a growing concern nationwide. Antibiotics, when released in the sewer or groundwater, are believed to spur the development of “superbugs” that are resistant to most all known medicines. The federal Drug Enforcement Administration is co-sponsoring the event with local governments and various public health and law enforcement agencies. Inquiries on the event may be directed to Sgt. P.A. DiFiore
at 743-3510. No questions will be asked, and drop-off will be anonymous, according to the sheriff ’s office.
Chestertown Historical Society seeks artifacts for election collection CHESTERTOWN — The Town of Chester Historical Society is seeking political artifacts from past elections. Museum Director, Nancie Welch, has been working with the museum’s collection and noted that there is just one poster from a previous town election in its collection.

Locals celebrate success of Oscar’s Smokehouse Iconic l ocal b usiness celebrates 70 years
ferings: low-salt and low-fat meats, and a totally natural bacon — without nitrates; cured instead with sea salt, unprocessed sugar, and using celery seed as a preservative. Also, their new specialty concoctions, including their smoked blue cheese spread, have impressed their fans, including Rachael Ray.
By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
WARRENSBURG — Wrapping up sausages behind the counter at Oscar’s Smokehouse for one of hundreds of customers purchasing meats and other products, Dave Decker paused and gestured towards his sons Christopher, 30, and Daniel, 17 who were also at work in the renowned local enterprise. “It’s awesome working here — I’ve supported my family over my whole life on my employment at Oscar’s,” said Dave, who has worked at the iconic business for 28 years. The Deckers and other employees of Oscar’s were exceptionally busy on Oct. 16, the day Oscar’s Smokehouse celebrated their 70th anniversary situated on the side of Hackensack Mountain in Warrensburg, where three generations of the Quintal family have produced gourmet smoked meats and cheeses for tens of thousands of loyal customers. An estimated 1,500 of these customers showed up for the celebration, congratulating Jerry Quintal and his wife Kathy and their sons on the enterprise’s longevity and present success. ORIGINS In 1940, Oscar Quintal and his wife Edith came to Warrensburg from Canada. In 1943 they opened the original Oscar’s Smoke House in the Warrensburgh Music Hall on Main St. downtown, but a fire destroyed the building in 1945. Determined to continue his popular enterprise, Oscar Quintal built a brick smokehouse and retail meat store a stretch north at the present location, and the business has thrived ever since. Oscar’s son Jerry Quintal started working there as a teenager, growing the business to its present prominence. His son Joq is now heading up the operation, backed up by
brother Joel and brother in-law Gabe Egloff. With their internet sales and endorsement of celebrity chef and talk-show sensation Rachael Ray, their business has blossomed, as their smoked meats and cheeses are achieving national fame. 8 MILLION POUNDS OF BACON As through those 70 years, Oscar’s has sold an estimated 8 million pounds of bacon alone — and countless more tons of hams, sausages and hundreds of other smoked, cured and fresh products, primarily meats and cheeses. Their business has also provided dozens of year-round jobs in an Adirondack town that until recently has hosted limited employment opportunities. Decker said at Sunday’s celebration he was fortunate not only that he could walk to work, but that the local jobs have kept his sons from moving out of town. Gazing at the crowd filling the smokehouse’s parking lot, Jerry offered a similar thought. “We’ve been blessed by this community, and that my family has been able to work here for generations,” he said. Decker had earlier expressed his appreciation for the Quintals and their commitment to the citizens of Warrensburg. He recalled
the major fire that burned the store and smokehouse to the ground in 2009, and how the Quintals continued to pay him and their other full-time employees for five months while the business was being rebuilt, but had no revenue, Decker recalled. “The Quintals kept paying their employees for months out of their own pockets while rebuilding,” he said. “They are a phenomenal family.” LOOKING TO THE FUTURE Just recently, the Quintals built a historiclooking red barn just downhill from their smokehouse and store, to accommodate their online sales and shipping as well as storage. They’ve also added three new smokers to handle the ever-greater popularity of their products. Joq Quintal said that although Oscar’s online sales had increased substantially over the past six years or so, walk-in customers remained responsible for 85 to 90 percent of the sales. The last full year before the 2009 fire, Oscar’s had $2.5 million in gross revenue. In 2015, it was about $5 million, Quintal said. The company has recently branched out with new of-
LOCAL PRAISE On a proclamation issued by the town council, Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Geraghty offered his congratulations for Oscar’s in helping the town by providing “many civic and economic benefits” over 70+ years. A proclamation by state Sen. Betty Little also praised the success of Oscar’s, and how it’s boosted Warrensburg’s economy — as well as its recent green initiatives of geothermal heating and cooling, low-energy lighting and superinsulated facilities. Joq looked over the hundreds of people gathered in Oscar’s parking lot, swapping memories while eating hamburgers and other foods at the anniversary party the enterprise hosted. “Our success is a culmination of hard work — Dad has done a lot through the years for our family, our business, our employees and our community,” he said. “The number of people here today says it all.” During the 70th anniversary celebration of Oscar’s Smokehouse, the enterprise’s patriarch Jerry Quintal takes a break from greeting hundreds of loyal customers to share some time with his grandchildren and other family members. Over seven decades, the business has provided steady good-paying jobs while its products have gained national fame.

thom@suncommunitynews.com
LAKE GEORGE — Panoramic, scenic views of Lake George and surrounding mountainous terrain will be available to the public during an upcoming weekend promotion honoring U. S. veterans for their service to the nation. The general public as well as veterans’ and their families will be able to drive up Prospect Mountain on Veterans Memorial Highway at no charge from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. both Saturday Nov. 5 and Sunday Nov. 6. The highway, controlled by the state Department of Environmental Conservation, has for decades been closed down in mid-October. But a lobbying effort by several local veterans — Dennis Galloway, Dan Hurley and Phil Santasiero — has been successful in keeping the highway open during the weekend prior to Veterans Day. This is the second year of the free access to the highway during the first weekend of November. Last year, 2,040 people in 800-plus vehicles took the trip up the mountain in this weekend promotion, Galloway said this week as he invited motorists to take the free trip. Access is normally $10 per vehicle. “This is an opportunity to enjoy beautiful views, take scenic photos and enjoy great fellowship,” Galloway said. Galloway, Hurley and Santasiero will be joined by other volunteers to greet motorists.

Vintage clock in Lake George to be dedicated to Walter Marinelli LAKE GEORGE — On Sunday Oct. 23, the Village of Lake George will be dedicating a new antique street clock in honor of Walter Marinelli. The two-faced bronze clock, manufactured by the 174-yearold Verdin Co. of Cincinnati Ohio, will be located permanently on the corner of Beach Road and Canada Street next to the Village’s Visitor Center. Ceremonies are scheduled to begin at 1 p.m., coinciding with Marinelli’s death in 1999.
Marinelli served on the committee that originally conceived and raised funds for the Lake George Village Recreation Center. The 320-acre park, located on Route 9N, is home to three ballfields, a soccer field, football field and cross-country ski trails. Along with Neil McPhillips, Michael Lanfear and Mayor Robert Blais, Marinelli organized several fundraisers including an annual golf tournament to support construction of the recreation center.
He also served the community for years as a member of the Lake George Youth Commission and Village Planning Board. Walter and his wife Dolores operated the Admiral Motel in the village for years. Funds to purchase the clock were donated by the annual Marinelli’s Golf Outing and matched by the Lake George Village Board.

e’ve witnessed the process g row i ng worse election by election, but clearly this year’s campaign has now reached new depths. Key factors that can corrupt even the most wellintentioned among us are all in play this year and they are affecting more than just those running for office. Politics, money, influence, power and sex are the tools that fuels that drive Washington, which is why we shouldn’t be at all surprised by what’s taking place. But this year, the media has chosen to further flex it’s unbridled power and influence to play a role in creating extra drama, as both sides have argued, tipping the scales of this election through their reporting or lack of reporting. Set party affiliation aside if you can for a moment. This election and the final two candidates have been in play for nearly two years. Nothing being revealed in the last few weeks about either candidate is new. It’s all old news. So why are these breaking news events occurring at this pivotal point? Forget fair and balanced. Forget your party affiliation and candidate choice. This is pure octane spiking of the news for obvious reasons. Perceived scandals are far more stimulating, plain and simple. If the national media with all their investigative crews, truly did it’s job all this “stuff ” would have come out long ago disqualifying these candidates and perhaps today we could be spending more time having conversations about the real issues that affect everyday Americans and the world. This whole mess has been so carefully choreographed if it were a movie, they would have a landslide victory at the Academy Awards, but unfortunately it’s real life and this election will affect millions, both in negative and positive ways, for perhaps years to come. Our Constitution calls on a free press to be the guardian of the people; to afflict the powerful and comfort the afflicted. Unfortunately, the national media has become far too influential and comfortable with the position they enjoy and are swayed by the flow of big money, much like our political system. Their first priority is driving sales and enhancing the cash flow. Their second priority is to insure that continues long after the >> See ALEXANDER | pg. 7

The Warren Country Bike Trail between Glens Falls and Lake George is a great place to get moving and be active
North Country ahead of healthy living curve thanks to local officials
W
e’re buoyed by the results of a national poll released last week that reveals a connection between communities built for active living and the health of their residents. According to Gallup, communities with the greatest investment in supporting active lifestyles yield residents who do “significantly better” in key aspects of well-being. The polling organization surveyed 48 communities nationwide. Residents in the five highest-ranked active living communities — including Boston, San Francisco, Chicago, New York City and Washington, D.C. — have on average significantly lower obesity and diabetes rates. Their blood pressure is lower. So are their cholesterol levels and rates of depression. Residents also report better exercise habits and lower levels of smoking than those living in communities with comparatively little active living infrastructure — things like parks, trails, bike paths and public transportation networks. While the cities surveyed are all urban areas, our very own small towns are making great strides in catching up with their more cosmopolitan counterparts. In fact, our North Country communities are actually at the forefront of this shift towards more healthy lifestyles as a result of the strategies pursued by our governmental agencies and their nonprofit counterparts. Essex County, for instance, recently wrapped up a five-year project designed to install healthy infrastructure in each town, including public gardens, walking paths, playgrounds and exercise equipment. Their hard work has been ensured to continue for the next half-decade through a new partnership with Clinton County that aims to promote healthy
A
eating and daily exercise in schools and communities, and to implement Complete Streets plans, or blueprints designed to improve walkability. At the same time, walking trails and fitness projects are blossoming in towns across Clinton County, from athletic efforts in Plattsburgh to a proposed river trail project in Saranac. And in Warren County, a bike trail from Lake George to Glens Falls has proven to be ever-popular. These folks deserve to be commended for their foresight and dedication to public health. The report shows that these developments are not mere fanciful concepts, but are projects that have resulted in tangible and concrete changes for the general public. But, as the poll notes, continued success can only be possible with the support of the entire community, from schools to retail outlets, employers and restaurants. That’s already happening here in the North Country, and we never fail to be amazed by the partnerships and collaborations we see moving forward on a daily basis. So let’s all pitch in to ensure our local communities remain at the forefront of this trend. The Sun Community News Editorial Board is comprised of Dan Alexander, John Gereau and Pete DeMola. We want to hear from you. What do you think of our new look? Drop us a line on our new Facebook page, or follow us on Twitter, to share your thoughts.
ENDORSEMENT POlIcy
s we approach the upcoming election season we want to make an important distinction regarding candidate endorsements. With a free distribution in excess of 60,000 homes, our papers are inundated every election cycle with candidate endorsements. The only source of revenue our community publications receive to offset the cost of print, delivery and overhead is paid notices and advertisements. All candidate endorsements must now run either in the form of an advertisement or a paid endorsement notice and include the name of the individual making the en-
dorsement. The paid endorsement notice can be purchased in three sizes — a quick 50 words or less for $15; a 51-175 word endorsement for $50 or a 176-300 word endorsement for $75. A paid advertisement will be based on standard advertising rates taking into consideration size and frequency according to the current rate card at the open advertising rate.

lETTERS TO THE EDITOR
EssexÊ CountyÊ needsÊ aÊ tetheringÊ law To the Editor: In early 2015, the Essex County Animal Cruelty Task Force presented the Board of Supervisors with a comprehensive report on the state of animal cruelty in the county and a series of recommendations to address it, including a county law to restrict the chaining of dogs to a fixed object. As the Ways and Means Committee is poised to vote on the law a second time, there is a need to explain the necessity for this law and clear up any misunderstanding about its purpose and requirements. Studies have shown that tethering or fastening a dog for a prolonged period to a stationary object is inhumane and presents a threat to the safety and wellbeing of the dog. Tethers can injure dogs, become tangled and inhibit their access to food, water and shelter. Chained dogs cannot escape from extreme weather, predators or other threats to their safety. When a dog is tied or chained for long periods of time, its basic needs of companionship, freedom of movement and exercise are not being met. The U.S. Department of Agriculture, the American Veterinary Medical Association, the Humane Society of the United States and ASPCA all oppose the practice of chaining or tethering dogs. Yet, current New York State law does not address tethering – at all. Right now, an owner can chain a dog for life and there is nothing anyone can do about it as long as adequate food, water and shelter are provided. However, while the state prohibits the county from passing laws related to most animal cruelty issues, tethering is one of the few exceptions to this rule. And that gives us an opportunity in Essex County to put an end to the suffering of dogs forced to live their entire lives – or a good part of it – at the end of a chain. We are asking the Board to act on this because tethering is a clear and present problem in Essex County, affecting nearly every town. In fact, most cases of cruelty to dogs investigated by the Sheriff ’s Office involve tethering. Overall, communities that pass tethering laws are safer for people and more humane for dogs. Dog bites, loose dogs and barking dog complaints decline significantly over time. Tethering laws also reduce animal cruelty complaints because they set clear expectations for pet owners and allow law enforcement to intervene before it is too late. The proposed law represents the collective efforts of local agencies in consultation with community members including animal care professionals. We have tried to be responsive to the needs of caring pet owners while ensuring that the law is enforceable. The proposed law: • Imposes a limitation on tethering of four continuous hours, eight hours total in any 24-hour period as long as the owner is on the property. • Prohibits tethering to a fixed point if the owner is not on the property. • Sets forth design requirements for safe tethers (e.g., no logging chains or choke collars). • Allows owners to confine a dog on an overhead run or in a dog enclosure (fence/kennel) for up to 12 hours in a 24 hour period, whether or not the owner is present. Exceptions are made for hunting dogs, agricultural working dogs and sled dogs. • Sets forth specifications for runs and enclosures as well as for crates and kennels used for the purpose of temporarily confining or transporting working dogs. • Establishes penalties for failure to comply, including a graduated schedule of fines for repeat offenders. Monies collected from paid fines will be dedicated to animal protection education, enforcement and/or for the maintenance of an animal abuse registry if one is established in the future. We want to stress that the goal is to keep dogs with their owner, while ensuring that they receive proper care. The primary responsibility for enforcement of the law is with the Sheriff ’s Office. The State Police, local police and town animal control officers may enforce the law but are not required to. Law enforcement will act with discretion and evaluate every situation to decide the best course of action. Every step we take to end the abuse of animals in Essex County is also a win for its residents as animal cruelty is strongly associated with domestic violence, child abuse and other violent crimes. When we protect the vulnerable among us, we improve the quality of life for all. Kristy Sprague, Essex County District Attorney Richard H. Cutting, Essex County Sheriff Major John H. Tibbitts Jr., Troop B Commander, New York State Police Jessica Hartley, Executive Director, North Country SPCA Diane Dodd, DVM
GreenÊ PartyÊ Ô dependentÊ onÊ signageÕ To the Editor: (In response to “Sign thefts a troubling sign of the times,” by the Sun Community News Editorial Board, Oct. 8 edition of the Valley News Sun.) As one of the volunteers putting out signs for the Green Party, I have noticed the sign theft issue.
Alexander
cOMMENTARy However, I disagree with the suggestion of banning signs for the following reasons: As we are all aware, “corporate funded” vs “people supported” is a major issue this year from local to national levels. As the only party not receiving corporate funding, the Green Party is very dependent on signage and the social media for getting the word out. Matt Funiciello is well known and loved as owner of Rock Hill Bakery whose goods are available from Oscar’s Smoke House to the Main Street Ice Cream Parlour. His record of community involvement in Glens Falls is well known. Barkenhagen and Ruzbacki are also fairly well known in the local area. However, candidates like Robin Laverne Wilson (running against Schumer for US Senator) or even Dr. Jill Stein (running as President) are not even known by many people. This is because a “people supported” campaign cannot afford expensive ads in papers, radio and TV. I thank anyone respecting the Green Party signs. We are proud to say that we put the signs up and take them back down. Thank you to the Sun for the great job you are doing for local candidates. Anna Busser Chestertown
MichelleÊ ObamaÊ Ô isÊ aÊ hypocriteÕ To the Editor: When my two boys were growing up, I told them there were three things that I did not want them to be: lawyers, politicians or reporters. I went on to tell them it would be okay if they were pimps — at least that is an honorable profession. Now this should give you some idea how high a regard I hold these other positions in. This week, my ideas about these were reinforced with Michelle Obama’s speech. I am not going to defend Trump’s speech or what he might have done. But I find it funny that Trump’s possible actions send Michelle into a tailspin of despair. But she has no problem supporting the enabler of a sexual predator. If Trump had done in the oval office what Clinton did, now that would be called it rape. But the democrat just got a wink and a nod. Now don’t think that I expect anybody in the lame stream media to step up and do the honorable thing and call Michelle what she is. The word you would be looking for if you had any honor is “hypocrite.” With what I have heard from the media about Michelle’s speech, none of you have any honor, just more evidence that it is okay for a powerful democrat to abuse women. Good job folks! Raynard Corrow Indian Lake
OneÊ voteÊ awayÊ fromÊ dictatorship? To the Editor: Note the quotation of Alexander Tayler in 1787 about the Athenian republic some 2,000 years prior: “A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.” “The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence: 1. From bondage to spiritual faith; 2. From spiritual faith to great courage; 3. From courage to liberty; 4. From liberty to abundance; 5. From abundance to complacency; 6. From complacency to apathy; 7. From apathy to dependence; 8. From dependence back into bondage. The blindness of voters is evidenced in the recent debate by the interest in Peyton Place more than the condition of the country. Consider this: Obama has compromised the Supreme Court. The Judiciary Branch and the Attorney General are under the directive of the Executive Branch now. You’ve seen the actions of the IRS in recent events. You’ve watched the early retirement of many high military officers in recent years. We may be one vote away from dictatorship. Vote wisely. Remember always it is God who places rulers and kings. God has his program and this portion is nearing completion. Next phase soon to start. Look into God’s program for your own wellbeing. The USA is not found as a player in end time events in the Bible.

election with those in control of Washington. At the end of the day, we are all afflicted with the human condition. We all have flaws and are prone to give in to those flaws along the way. Those in power and with financial security are even more at risk to be swayed to use their powerful influence for their own advancement. This country was built on the premise that we could avoid these traps by keeping the power with the people. We have allowed ourselves to be manipulated and we are headed for trouble if we don’t turn things around very soon by demanding truth, accountability and limit the powerful from owning the upper hand.

Wikileaks and the media Proof of collusion Rick Jensen Columnist
S
tunning. Is there a more relevant word for describing the Wikileaks proof of collusion between members of the national media and the Hillary Clinton campaign? There’s no surprise that the Hillary campaign colluded with the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to demean, disgrace and defeat Bernie Sanders. What may (or may not) surprise many Americans is that “journalists” in the national media also colluded with the Hillary campaign. Hillary was given debate questions in advance. Imagine a reporter investigating Hillary and the DNC’s questionable campaign fundraising tactics and then asking that campaign if they would like to edit the story before the reporter’s editor sees it. That’s exactly what one email proved Politico, reporter Ken Vogel did. He emailed his story with the subject line, “per agreement... any thoughts appreciated,” to Mark Paustenbach, Deputy Communications Director for the DNC. Paustenbach forwarded it to Luis Miranda, Communications Director at the DNC. “Vogel gave me his story ahead of time/before it goes to his editors as long as I didn’t share it. Let me know if you see anything that’s missing and I’ll push back.” Collusion. Another email titled “WaPo Party” exposed the, Washington Post, planning a secret fundraiser with the DNC. “They aren’t going to give us a price per ticket and do not want their party to be listed in any package we are selling to donors,”, wrote Anu Rangappa, Senior Advisor for General Election Strategies for the DNC. Jordan Kaplan, National Finance Director for the DNC, replied, “Great - we were never going to list since the lawyers told us we cannot do it.” The lawyers told them they could not do it. Just because this story isn’t front page news doesn’t mean it isn’t one of the biggest scandals in this election. It is. Haim Saban is a major Clinton donor. Wikileaks proves that in 2016, he received an email praising the Hillary-friendly moderators in the March Democratic primary co-hosted by Univision. This email was from Rob Friedman, retired co-chair at the Motion Picture Group. This email reveals moderators Karen Tumulty, Maria Elena Salinas and Jorge Ramos as players in roles written by Friedman and Saban, designed to promote Hillary over Bernie Sanders. This is the dark hole of soul-sucking depravity that is the root cause of American distrust of the national media. If the goal of journalism is honest, unbiased reporting of facts, then shouldn’t those reporters revealed to be colluding with the Clinton campaign meet the same employment fate as the disgraced Dan Rather did with CBS?

Breakthrough in Cuba/U.S. relations offers new world of art
T
his week in 1962, this nation was in the throws of the Cuban Missile Crisis. According to history.com, the world was poised at the brink of a nuclear conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union. In America, many citizens began building or replenishing bomb shelters, waiting anxiously to see if the Soviet Union would use nuclear missiles to attack the United States from Cuban soil. Now, 54 years later, relations between the United States and Cuba are finally being normalized, with the U.S. government announcing on Oct. 14 that further measures would be taken to ease trade, travel and financial restrictions. Not only does this mean that Americans can now legally bring more of Cuba’s famed goods — cigars, rum, etc — back to the U.S., but it opens up new opportunities for Americans to learn more about Cuba’s art world. That being said, there is also an art world to explore a little closer to home, with entertainment of all sorts to fill in the gaps: Lake George’s Harvest Festival weekend will return on Oct. 21-23 with live entertainment, craft beer and wine, food and more.

system and school clock system need to be replaced, Goralski said, noting they don’t always function. The proposal also calls for boosting energy efficiency by upgrading all windows and converting fluorescent lighting to LED arrays. The high school needs a new hot water system to replace the existing failing equipment, he added. In the elementary school, old heating boilers are aging and inefficient, and need to be replaced, he said. and many of the schools rooms have vinyl-asbestos composition floor tiles which need to be removed and replaced, Goralski continued. “We want to transform our schools into modern facilities,” he said, noting that the board is committed to accomplishing the work without increasing the property tax levy. Last year’s grassroots lobbying effort to create a new auditorium — a suitable performance space for Warrensburg’s acclaimed drama and music programs — is an option school officials have reviewed, Goralski said. To secure state funding for an auditorium, it would have to be a conversion of an existing space at the school and not a building addition, he said. To accomplish this, several classrooms now used for study halls could be converted to a cafeteria, and the existing cafetorium could be converted into a well-equipped auditorium with tiered seating and proper acoustics, according to one proposed option. Additional space might be available by converting one of the high school’s three computer labs into a classroom, as students are now increasingly completing their assignments on laptop computers that are brought into classrooms rather than on

bulky computer towers that stay put, he said. While basic upgrades and repairs are expected to cost $8 million to $9 million, converting the cafetorium to an auditorium would likely boost the cost to about $13 million, Goralski said. The state is expected to pay about 80 percent of the repairs and capital improvements, and the school district has both capital reserves and repair reserves to pay for the remaining expenses so taxes don’t increase, he said. Also, the efficiency upgrades are expected to reduce the district’s operational costs, he added.
A vote on the renovation project is scheduled to be held in March. If approved, the project is to be designed over a six-month period and submitted to the state Education Department by December 2017. The construction work would be completed in phases during the summer and fall of 2019 and 2020. Goralski said he and the school board members are seeking to meet society’s changing educational needs. “Education has changed dramatically since both buildings were constructed, and our vision is to create a 21st-century learning environment for our students,” he said.
of the partisan establishment in Washington for more than 10 years and it’s clear she’s cashing in all her favors now. If anything, this just underscores the fact that Elise is not the independent voice she claims to be.” Lenny Alcivar, a spokesman for the Stefanik campaign, fired back: “This isn’t complicated. The reason former Colorado Republican-turned-Democrat Mike Derrick has been abandoned by his own party is because he has no new ideas for the North Country,” Alcivar said. Alcivar continued: “In this election, Matt Funiciello is the Bernie Sanders candidate. Mike Derrick is the candidate who supports the Obama Administration’s dangerous deal with Iran, which makes us less safe.” “We remain confident that Elise is in the strongest possible position to win in November,” said Alcivar, citing the lawmaker’s efforts to promote economic growth “while protecting Fort Drum and North Country veterans.” The Stefanik campaign has largely avoided mention of Funiciello until this week, seemingly content to let him hammer away at Derrick. But Alcivar’s comments allude to the Stefanik campaign’s latest advertisement, which appears to try to siphon support from Derrick by reminding voters of the third-party candidate. “Which candidate for Congress is the real progressive?” intones the narrator. “Matt Funiciello, of course. He’s the green candidate for Congress.” Funiciello called the 30-second spot a “cynical effort.”
profits which are then able to spend money on races without disclosing their donors. What’s even worse, said the candidate, is “gray money,” or spending by state super PACs that report other PACs as donors, making it nearly impossible to identify original donors. “Dark money is the latest sign that our democracy is rapidly turning into an oligarchy,” Funiciello said in a statement. “When money counts as speech, being able to give unlimited amounts skews an already broken system into a battleground for only the very top of the 1 percent.” Funiciello has called for full public financing of elections at all levels of government, and for enacting strict transparency laws that force campaign committees and PACs to disclose all of their donors. Funiciello has frequently assailed both Stefanik and Derrick as “corporate candidates.” “That means I’m the only candidate in NY21 that’s going to raise issues for the working class,” he said. Despite the lack of external polling, Funiciello said he believes his support in the district is surging: “The result of this election is no way predetermined,” Funiciello said.

allocated last week to 15 congressional districts across the country, bringing CLF’s total announced general election spending to date to over $33 million in 29 districts. CLF and its sister organization, American Action Network (AAN), remain the single largest outside conservative spenders on the U.S. House. The two groups spent $20 million in independent expenditures on U.S. House races in 2014. RYAN: STEFANIK HAS MY ‘FULL SUPPORT’ The firehose comes as the GOP deals with the fallout following the release of a tape that revealed Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump bragging about groping women. Since the leak of the tape and an acrimonious second presidential debate, Trump has been accused of sexual assault from at least nine women who have come forward. House Speaker Paul Ryan appeared to indicate the race was lost last week, and said his remaining priority would be to ensure Republicans retained the majority in the House. Stefanik worked with Ryan when she served as Policy Director for 2012 GOP National Convention Platform when Ryan was the party’s vice presidential candidate. Last week, the Wisconsin lawmaker posted a photo of himself with Stefanik on Twitter: “Elise Stefanik is part of a new generation of leaders who bring fresh ideas to Washington,” Ryan wrote. “She has my full support.” In addition to Derrick, a Democrat, Stefanik also faces a challenge from Green Party candidate Matt Funiciello. The Siena Research Institute announced last week they would not poll the district, citing a lack of resources, according to the Post Star. But a NRCC-commissioned poll released Monday revealed Stefanik led Derrick 54 to 29 percent. That same poll, conducted by American Viewpoint, found the lawmaker had a 55 percent approval and 27 percent disapproval rating; Derrick had a 28 percent approval and 19 percent disapproval rating. A Stefanik campaign spokesman declined to comment on if the district has been flagged by the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) as one that may go blue. According to Sabato’s “Crystal Ball” forecast, Democrats need to gain 30 seats to flip the House. That report, published Oct. 13, said Democrats can expect to gain between 10 to 15 seats. “We do not yet know the implication that Donald Trump’s apparent weakening in the polls will have down the ticket, which is why this is an odd time to take a look at the House,” wrote Kyle Kondik. Another DC-area outlet, the Rothenberg & Gonzales Political Report/Roll Call, has rated the race as “Safe Republican.” But Republicans aren’t taking any chances on the seat that Stefanik won by 19 points in 2014. “Our great fundraising allows us to spend more money than ever before to safeguard the strongest center-right majority possible in the House,” said Mike Shields, president of CLF and AAN, in a statement. “Expanding beyond the top competitive seats on the map, these latest ad reservations are challenging liberal spending in more districts and standing beside more strong conservative Members of Congress.” DERRICK HITS BACK The $500,000 spend caps off a week of non-stop criticism of Stefanik from the Derrick camp on her support of Trump. “Thanks to her unwavering support for Donald Trump, Elise Stefanik’s campaign is in a tailspin and now her backers in Washington are trying to bail her out,” said Drew Prestridge, a Derrick campaign spokesman. “Elise has been a part
“While these two candidates are selling each other like toothpaste on television, I don’t want to be a part of that,” Funiciello said. “The Republican in this race has frequently tried to use me as a pawn.” “This is one of the strangest, unconventional behaviors I’ve seen yet in 25 years of watching elections.” FUNICIELLO DECRIES ‘DARK MONEY’ The Green Party does not accept corporate contributions, and Funiciello has refused to accept corporate, PAC and special interest donations. The candidate has also been vocal in denouncing “dark money,” or the campaign donations given to LLCs and non-
FUNDRAISING TOTALS Stefanik last week announced her campaign raised $618,000 in the third quarter, and now has $1.1 million cash on hand. Derrick announced $460,000 raised this quarter, and has over $360,000 current cash on hand. Through Sept. 30, the Stefanik campaign has raised a total of more than $2.8 million dollars for her re-election, more than doubling the $1.1 million reported by the Derrick campaign since he declared his candidacy last July. Information on Funiciello’s totals weren’t immediately available at the time this story went to print on Tuesday morning. A “super PAC” backed by House Republicans announced plans to spend $500,000 against Mike Derrick in the final stretch of New York’s 21st District Congressional race.

North Creek Farmers Market board meets, seeks volunteers NORTH CREEK — The North Creek Farmers Market board of directors met Oct. 13 for the annual wrap up meeting. Market viability was the focus of discussion. This year saw market attendance down 24 percent. Vendors reported less income than the previous two years. Several vendors have made the decision to no longer attend the North Creek Market, some due to low sales, others due to circumstances outside the market. There are also several board members who will not be returning next year, leaving 3-4 board
openings. In addition to new board members and vendors, the market will need a market manager, or possibly two or three people who would be willing to rotate that responsibility during the market season. There has been a very low interest shown by the community in helping to organize and manage the market for next year. New volunteers are desperately sought. There will be a meeting in January to determine if there is enough support and
interest from the community to continue to have the market. Anyone interested in joining the market board, becoming the market manager or attending the market as a vendor, please contact one of the current board members: Michelle Whitefield at 623-3563, Sue Therio at 251-2099, Cheryl Kenyon at 623-9718, Barb Thomas at 251-5692, Nancy Heckett at 645-2916, Cherie Lasher at 924-2037 or Andrea Hogan at 251-9938.

Tax levy projected to increase by 5.6% in Indian Lake Officials will continue to carve away at projected hike in budget workshops to be held Oct. 20, 27 and Nov. 3 By Bill Quinlivan

OTHER BUSINESS • The board voted unanimously to accept the lone garbage contract bid submitted by J. Moore Construction. The bid required $112,875 for garbage carting and $50,485 for handling of recyclables. Before refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners can be accepted at the transfer station, a permit must be purchased at the Town Hall for $20 — that will cover the cost of removing the refrigerant material from such appliances, said Town Supervisor Brian Wells. These appliances will not be accepted without the permit. • Wells announced that exploratory well drilling is to move forward on the grounds of the Adirondack Museum as a means of addressing the Blue Mountain Lake water issue. • Work on the Lake Abanakee Dam will finish ahead of schedule, possibly as early as mid-December, Wells said. • Wells said he was happy he was to see the progress on the Comprehensive Plan moving forward. Wells commented that he wants something that gives the town a clear and doable path into the future.

INDIAN LAKE — The town has arrived at a tentative spending plan for 2017. While the details still need to be hashed out in a series of budget workshops, projected appropriations are down 7 percent from last year to about $4.7 million. But the levy will see a projected 5.6 percent increase next year, increasing $200,000 to $3,756,247. This figure exceeds the tax levy limit by $117,610, which means the town is on track to surpass the state-mandated tax cap, which has been set at .6 percent this year. The projected increase, said town officials, can be attributed to several factors. The first is a $46,420 drop in revenues, including a decrease in rental incomes generated from town-owned properties and a decline in mortgage taxes. An energy efficiency grant will also not be returning this year. The town is also weaning itself away from a reliance on fund balance, halving usage from 7.7 percent in 2016 to 3.57 percent this year for appropriations. Based on this first cut budget, the major contributing areas to the increase come primarily from the landfill and Water District #2 categories. Other smaller contributions to the increase are derived from highway, library, Water Dis-
trict #1 and sewer categories. Budget workshops will take place on Oct. 20, Oct. 27 and Nov. 3, with a public hearing on the preliminary budget held on Nov. 10. All meetings are scheduled for 7 p.m. at the Indian Lake Town Hall.

The board unanimously authorized the supervisor’s request to appropriate $1,000 to fund a presentation that will be used to showcase Access Adirondacks’ goals. “If anyone thinks that our communities would not protect these environments,” Wells said, “they need to realize that these environments are all we have to help grow and develop our communities and we are determined to protect them.”
Wells encouraged attendees to support the group’s proposal regarding the pending classification of Boreas Ponds and MacIntyre Tracts, and asked them to attend upcoming public hearings or by submitting a written comment to the Adirondack Park Agency. The first meeting is scheduled for Nov. 9 at the APA headquarters in Ray Brook. Written comments must be received by Dec. 30. The November Indian Lake Town Board Meeting will be moved from Nov. 14. to Nov. 15 to allow Wells to attend the APA hearing in Northville.

100Ê yearsÊ of Ê CornellÊ CooperativeÊ Extension WARRENSBURG — In the early 20th century, farming was the most important industry in the U.S., yet the industrial revolution was transforming society. This upheaval prompted institutions of higher education to address the needs of boosting agricultural efficiency while helping rural families adapt to the evolution underway. Embarking on this mission, the state College of Agriculture was formed at Cornell University in Ithaca NY, and extensions of this agricultural education were established around the state, with several farm bureaus being founded. Such an educational extension service was launched locally with the formation in March 1916 of the Warren County Farm Bureau, with J. Q. Reynolds presiding. The organization’s executive committee included family names that are still well-recognized in the area: Reynolds, Leggett, Seaman, Hooper and others. By mid-April, the committee hired E. W. Cleeves as Farm Bureau Manager and Miss Geneva Kenyon as secretary. The group also equipped the two with a car and office furniture, according to meeting minutes of the era. That June, the group began communicating with its members and the public through their new Warren County Farm Bureau News. The first issue of the publication detailed information on potato blight, silo cost and construction, and recommended dairy rations. A column of community news told about Mr. Ouderkirk’s celery, Arthur Adams of Knowlhurst and his success in poultry, J.R. Loomis and his Bershire pigs, how A.H. VanDuzen of Knowlhurst reaped a $2 profit from his hens, and how William Walsh of Athol was using bacteria to inoculate his soil in order to grow healthy alfalfa. The issue contained a letter from Seaman to the Bureau
membership, which said in part “The Farm Bureau practically brings the Agricultural Department to your very door; for it places in our county a man, trained in Agriculture at Cornell and fitted also by practical experience, who is at the service of all of the farmers who become members of the association”— referring to Cleeves, the first Farm Bureau Manager. At the first annual meeting of the bureau, executive committee member Frank C. Hooper proposed that boys clubs be founded all over the county, a dream that foreshadowed the 4H clubs that half a century later became a vital part of life for both boys and girls in Warren County.

state and county Farm Bureaus focused more on the specific needs of farmers, and the two entities separated. In 1956 the Warren County Farm and Home Bureau and 4-H Club Association became the Warren County Extension Service Association, and the county Farm Bureau evolved into a county Agriculture Department.
Agency’s aims evolve over time
Youth outreach spawns 4-H clubs Warren County Cooperative Extension’s renowned commitment to youth took a major step forward in the late 1940s, with the formation of the county’s first 4-H clubs. It was about time, considering that the concept of hiring a “junior project leader” for youth was first suggested in a meeting of the county Farm Bureau executive committee in 1919, and a 4-H Club Department of the Farm Bureau was launched in 1936. The first two 4-H clubs in Warren County were organized in 1948 under the encouragement of County Cooperative Extension 4-H agent Joseph Brownell. One of the groups, later named the “Mighty Men Club,” was formed at the Ridge Road home of Mr. and Mrs. John Kubricky Sr.. Philip Harris was elected President, Fred Austin was named Vice President and News Reporter. John Austin was chosen as Secretary, Richard Kubricky was named Treasurer, and LeRoy Kubricky was appointed Song & Cheer Leader. As an adult in the mid-1960s, John Austin served as Chairman of Cooperative Extension’s 4-H committee. Earlier, he held the position of reporter and editor of the Glens Falls Times, then further in his career an attorney, a councilman and Supervisor, a Warren County Family Court Judge and County Court Judge. After he retired from this latter position in 2003, he was appointed Warren County Historian. Fred Austin, John’s brother, became Warren County’s Superintendent of Public Works. The county’s other initial 4-H Club, organized that year at a meeting at Sherman Avenue School in Glens Falls, had a membership of both boys and girls. In the 1950s through the 1980s, 4-H clubs in Warren County numbered in the dozens, with many formed around particular interests, but always pursuing the objectives of nurturing leadership skills and developing of character and citizenship.

tive Extension operated the Warren County Fair for decades, giving youth opportunities to develop skills vital in their future employment, pursing outdoor sports, or appreciating the natural world. The county fairs sponsored by Warren County Cornell Cooperative Extension in the mid-to-late 1900s were three-day affairs featuring myriad of youth expositions, farm animals and produce that children had raised, baked goods they’d prepared and artwork they’d created, and as well as youth equestrian competitions and extensive talent shows. Youth also made public presentations on projects they accomplished, boosting their confidence and communication skills. In recent years, the Youth Fairs have downsized, but

In Cooperative Extension’s formative years, a major emphasis of its activities were concentrated on promoting effective techniques of farming, care of livestock, timber production and conservation, as well as maple sugaring strategies and woodlot management. A pre-World War I photo of the Howard Fish farm in Igerna with a flock of sheep in the foreground was used in a early 1900s Farm Bureau News issue. The publication also discussed how the woolen mill in Warrensburg — which manufactured the world-famous woolen pants — provided a stable market for wool shorn from sheep raised by Warren County farmers as well as providing its employees with income to purchase the farmers’ eggs, potatoes, milk and grain. The newsletter also touted the economic importance of timber and how stewardship of area woodlands was important for future generations’ prosperity — issues parallel to those advocated today by Cornell Cooperative Extension of Warren County. Meanwhile, with agriculture diminishing in the area, Cooperative Extension changed its primary focus from farming and forestry in the early 1900s to helping people develop various other skills needed to navigate modern life. However, effective forest management and conservation, as well as principles of efficient maple sugaring operations and other fields of natural resource management, continue to this day to be topics instructed by Warren County Cooperative Extension agents.
Programs help people navigate modern life Reviewing the county Cooperative Extension website at: warren.cce.cornell.edu reveals the array of ways that the organization is working to help individuals, families and meet society’s ever-evolving needs. The organization conducts programs on good nutrition, prosperous gardening, and effective child-rearing, as well as family financial management, safe food preparation and storage, plus tax return preparation and effective parenting for individuals navigating the difficulties of divorce or separation. They also disseminate useful information, including how to keep healthy, which includes tips of avoid contracting Lyme Disease and lately, infomation about the zika virus.

D’Ella Mazda, Autotrends now open in Queensbury Mazdas awarded for innovation
QUEENSBURY — Armed with an experienced staff committed to customer satisfaction, an automotive dealership has been launched in Queensbury. D’Ella Mazda of Glens Falls, the newest dealership in the area, joins the D’Ella group of dealerships spread across the
North Country. D’Ella Mazda is located at 92 Quaker Road, where D’Ella’s Autotrends pre-owned auto outlet has been located for several years. Both are operating at the location. The D’Ella Group’s size and buying power give D’Ella Mazda a step up on the competition in not only pricing new automobiles, but providing customers with an unsurpassed selection of pre-owned cars at rockbottom prices, according to D’Ella Mazda/ Autotrends General Manager Scott Seeley. “We have an outstanding array of choices we can offer our customers,” he said. The D’Ella Automotive Group operates dealerships representing eight brands at six locations including Queensbury, Ticonderoga, Plattsburgh, serving customers in nearby municipalities including Glens Falls, Saratoga, Burlington Vt. and Clifton Park. “D’Ella has been in the region for 30 years doing business the right way,” Seeley said. Seeley said he was particularly impressed with Mazda’s emergence in the last several years as an automotive namebrand with outstanding reliability — and technological innovation. Mazda was rated by Consumer Reports recently as one of the top two among all automotive brands, with the authoritative magazine praising Mazda’s features, handling, innovation, technological advances, and above all, reliability — over all their models. The other winner was a luxury car manufacturer. Mazda’s long list of technological innovations includes radar-assisted cruise control and lane-departure warning, automatic high-beam dimming, automatic aiming of headlights while turning, plus blind-spot vehicle detection and warning, as well as rain-sensing windshield wipers — and active driving display. In addition, Mazdas are available with Automatic Emergency Braking, a system which uses milliwave radar, cameras and laser beams to help prevent crashes. Options available include smartphone command of various functions by drivers: locking or unlocking one’s vehicle, or adjusting climate controls from anywhere, triggering a panic alarm, and locating one’s vehicle from anywhere, Seeley said. “The innovations in Mazdas are incredible,” he said. Seeley, a 1991 graduate of Warrensburg High School, has
been with D’Ella for seven years. He has 15 prior years of experience elsewhere in the automotive industry in the region. Financing a vehicle is a rewarding experience at D’Ella Masda, Seeley continued. D’Ella’s Autotrends pre-owned superstore recently won a national award, being in the top 16 of 5,000 dealers nationally for their customer service, including helping people obtain financing, Seeley said. “People can drive away in a new or pre-owned car with zero down,” he said, noting that D’Ella dealerships can help drivers establish or re-establish credit. Also, leasing is now becoming a popular alternative because drivers can only pay for 40 percent of a new Mazda because the residual values of Mazdas are now so high, he said. D’Ella’s websites offer substantial convenience to drivers, Seeley said, whether they want to browse new or pre-owned auto inventory, apply for credit, obtain information on Mazdas or the D’Ella dealerships — as well as evaluate specifications or schedule a test drive.All these options are available at: www.dellamazda.com for new cars or www.goautotrends. com for used vehicles. Seeley concluded that the D’Ella Mazda/Autotrends superstore offers an unexcelled array of services, including new and pre-owned automotive sales and leasing, comprehensive maintenance and repair services, expert body work and full detailing services. “We’ve got it all here under one roof,” Seeley said. ABOVE: Taking a break from assisting customers recently at the new D’Ella Mazda/Autotrends dealership on Quaker Road in Queensbury are D’Ella employees (left to right) Scott Seeley, Marji Zambrano, Alfonzo Rivera and Tony Danna.

hat an absolutely beautiful fall weekend. The colored leaves are breath taking. It would have been the weekend to “ride around the horn” as my dad and mom called it, from North Creek to Indian Lake to Speculator and back to Bakers Mills. Joan Ross and Beverly West had a great vacation traveling to Kentucky to see family. They enjoyed their stay in two different motels. It is apple and pumpkin picking time. Good time to get out in the fresh air and reap the harvest. Yum, hot apple sauce and good pumpkin pies. Do we have to wait until Thanksgiving? Traveling now, you can smell the scent of the wood stoves keeping folks warm. Don’t you love the country? Thanks to Amanda for taking me to Albany to Capital Cardiology on Thursday.

Section VII playoffs find home games for M/N boys, Johnsburg girls By Keith Lobdell
keith@suncommunitynews.com
ELIZABETHTOWN — While there were some upsets, very few things changed over the final week of the regular season as the Section VII football and soccer playoffs started to take shape.
Boy’s soccer Peru, Lake Placid and Chazy are the top seeds in the boys soccer tournaments for Classes B, C and D, respectively. In the Class B quarterfinal round, the third seed Northeastern Clinton (9-4-0, 27 points) will host the sixth-seeded Saranac Chiefs (5-9-0, 15 points) Tuesday, Oct. 18, at 6 p.m. The winner of the game will then face second seed and defending Class B state champion Plattsburgh High (11-5-0, 33 points) Friday, Oct.. 21, 7 p.m. on George Brendler Field in Chazy. Following an unbeaten regular season, perennial powerhouse and Division II champion Chazy (15-0-1, 46 points) will seek to regain their championship form as they host Schroon Lake (3-6-2, 11 points) at 6 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 20. Also in the top half of the bracket, fourth seed Minerva/Newcomb (9-3-1, 28 points) will face fifth seed and defending Class D state finalists Elizabethtown-Lewis/Westport (5-8-2, 17 points) at 3 p.m. at Newcomb Central School, also on Oct. 20. The winners of these quarterfinal games will meet Monday, Oct. 24, at the home of the higher seed with a 3 p.m. or 6 p.m. start if Chazy should advance. In the bottom half of the bracket, second seed Northern Adirondack (9-3-2, 29 points) will host seventh seed Crown Point (8-4-0, 24 points) Oct. 20 at 3 p.m. The other quarterfinal will see fourth seed and Division III champion Keene (13-3-0, 39 points) take on fifth seed Willsboro (5-10-1, 16 points), also at 3 p.m. in Keene Valley. Winners of these two games will also meet Monday, Oct. 24, with a 3 p.m. kickoff at the site of the highest remaining seed. If the seeds were to hold, the Class D semifinals would be the same as 2015, with Keene traveling to Northern Adirondack and the Griffins heading to Brendler Field against the Eagles. The Class D championship game will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 29, at Plattsburgh High School.
Girl’s soccer The three playoff brackets in Section VII will be led by each of the divisional champions in 2016 as Beekmantown (D-I), Northern Adirondack (D-II) and Keene (D-III) all have the top seeds. Class D will have a one-game quarterfinal play-in, as the eighth seed Moriah Vikings (2-10-1, 7 points) will host the ninth seed

Division III received all four of the top seeds in the Class D tournament, and will have their chance to prove themselves against their Division II opponents in home games being played Friday, Oct. 21, all with 3 p.m. starts. In the other game of the top portion of the Class D bracket, Johnsburg (9-4-1, 28 points) will host fifth seed ElizabethtownLewis/Westport (6-5-1, 19 points), who has been almost as hot as Keene in the second half of the season with a 6-1-0 record, only losing to NAC in the final 11 seconds of regulation.

Burghers headed into post-season after beating Salem 48-12 By Thom Randall
thom@suncommunitynews.com
SALEM — A forceful ground attack by the Warrensburg football team in a game against Salem Oct. 15 has earned the Burghers a berth in post-season playoffs. By defeating Salem 48-12, Warrensburg captured the fourth seed in the Section II Class D semifinals. After a crossover game, away against Moriah Friday Oct. 21, Warrensburg will face top-seeded Cambridge (7-0) Saturday Oct. 29 in a Sectional semifinal showdown. In the game against Salem, the Burghers racked up more than 450 yards of offense — and they scored on each of their first four possessions. On their first offensive play of the game, Warrensburg made quite a statement, as Greg Shambo took a handoff and ran 61 yards downfield into the end zone. The Burghers followed up with four more touchdowns before the Generals answered back with points of their own with a two-yard touchdown run by Nick DiDomenico. Scoring Burger touchdowns were Trevor Prosser, Evan MacDuff, Jack Binder, Joe Turner and Jesse Griffin as well as Shambo. Warrensburg converted all six of their touchdowns with runs by MacDuff, Turner, Cole Lanfear and Robert Shepler. After the Burghers substituted freely in the fourth stanza, DiDomenico scored again on a 60-yard breakaway run for Salem. Warrensburg had no less than 14 athletes carrying the ball in their running onslaught — a testament to their offensive depth and athleticism. Greg Shambo was top ground-gainer with 110 yards in five plays, followed by Trevor Prosser with 100 yards over nine plays. Jesse Griffin ran 44 yards in three plays; Joe Turner ran on two plays for 33 yards; and Evan Rock ran 26 yards in three plays. MacDuff tallied 22 yards over four plays and Jarod West, 21 yards on two plays. Also running with the ball were Jaron Griffin, Cole Lanfear, Michael Gavin. Jack Binder, Trevor Winchell, Zachary Shambo, and Mark Monthony. Receiving passes, one each, for Warrensburg were Greg Shambo for 40 yards and Evan MacDuff for 34 yards. McDuff, a sophomore who played wide receiver for most of this season, was at the quarterback post for most all of the Salem game. Early in the game, he switched positions with Mark Monthony who has called plays for the Burghers for all their other games during their successful 2016 season. “Evan did an outstanding job for us Saturday,” Burgher Coach Mike Perrrone said, predicting that McDuff would be
quarterback in the post-season. Perrone reserved his greatest praise for his team’s beefy line, which has been plowing through opponents to enable the Burgher running backs to make substantial gains all year. “Up front, we were great,” he said. “Any time a team can achieve 461 yards of total offense, the guys up front are making huge holes.” Warrensburg’s offensive line was key to getting into the scetionals, as while both Rensselaer and Warrensburg finished the regular season at 4-3, the Burghers won their berth because they beat the Rams 48-20 in September. Perrone said his players were “really excited” about their upcoming post-season play. “It was one of our team’s goals to make it to Sectionals, and
we hope to achieve more and go on past the semifinal game,” he said. “We have a very tough opponent in Cambridge — they have a great program — and we are very excited about competing with a team of that caliber.” In the meantime, Moriah should give the Burghers good preparation for the Sectional showdown — although they are 2-5 for the season, they’ve played tough B and C schools, Perrone said.

Students receive ‘long-awaited’ tech
Johnsburg Library News
LONG LAKE — Middle and high school students at Long Lake Central School received their long-awaited HP Chromebook laptops for use in school and at home. Their teachers are already up and running utilizing the laptops to add digital components to their lessons, officials say. Apple iPad tablets have also arrived and will be handed out in the elementary grades for instructional use in the coming weeks. The tablets will remain in the classrooms. Anticipation had been high as the school wrote and finalized the Smart Schools grant last year, waited for State approval and then planned and implemented the 1:1 device policy for the Pre K-12 population. Staff and teachers received extensive training on the devices last year, in readiness to hit the ground running this year with the new technology. Andy Truesdell, the NERIC (Northeastern Regional Information Center) head of technology, has been instrumental in programming and inventorying the chromebooks with the proper specs, ordering and housing the devices in great cases and dis- Ninth graders Katarina O’Brien-Brown and Riley Strader work on their laptops in Mrs. Gannon’s art class. Photo provided tributing them to students and teachers.
