$800,000 center constructed paid for with grants

MINERVA |When the Minerva Food Pantry opens twice a month in the basement of the Town Hall, things can get a bit cramped. But the pantry will be one of many organizations that will benefit from more elbow room as the town gets ready to open its new community center next door to the town building. The spacious new center will have an ample hall and a professional kitchen, and will serve both civic organizations and private functions, said Supervisor Stephen R. McNally, who anticipates hosting everything from Boy Scouts to birthday parties. “We anticipate it will get a lot of use,” he said.
GIVING THANKS: Students and teachers at Johnsburg Central
School in pre-K through sixth grade donated items to create goodie baskets filled with a variety of “on the go” treats for employees at Elderwood Nursing Home in North Creek. Organizers said the gesture was to offer thanks for the hard work they do.

ALBANY | Charter Spectrum will pay $174 million and refund customers $62 million in a settlement over claims it engaged in a “systematic scheme” to defraud and mislead internet subscribers by promising to deliver service that it knew it could not deliver. The settlement announced Tuesday by the state Attorney General’s Office is believed to represent the largestever payout to consumers by an internet service provider in U.S. history. Attorney General Barbara Underwood said the settlement should serve as a “wakeup call” to any company serving New York consumers and sets a new standard for how internet providers should fairly market their services. “Fulfill your promises or pay the price,” said Underwood in a statement. » Charter Cont. on pg. 2

LAKE GEORGE |Sunday afternoon, Kristen Hanifin gazed out at dozens of people entering Festival Commons to attend Adirondack Christkindlmarkt. “This has been an amazing turnout,” she said. “It’s been a constant stream of people over all three days. We’re blowing the doors off of anything we could have imagined.” Holding the holiday fest was Hanifin’s idea,
brought to fruition in conjunction with Scott Hayden of the Adirondack Folk School and a number of volunteers and sponsors. Hanifin is director of special events and convention for the Lake George Chamber of Commerce and Convention & Visitors Bureau. With about 4,500 people attending, Adirondack Christkindlmarkt — reflecting a centuries-old tradition in Germany and elsewhere in Europe — tripled the attendance estimated for the first-ever festival.
