andy@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — Those looking to have fun and help families in need can do both at the first-ever Spring Run Off Party Friday, May 4 at the Copperfield Inn. Proceeds from the Spring Run Off Party — formerly known as the annual Mud Party — will help the North Country Hardship Fund, coordinated by Wayne and Tamara Bukovinsky, of North Creek.

“We’re hoping it’s a big success,” Tamara said.

The party will include music by the band Flipside, plus door prizes and raffles.

People will be able to see the new 2012 Harley Davidson Dyna Super Glide that organizers are raffling off at Wayne Stock V this summer.

A donation of $5 at the door is being suggested. Free cab rides will be provided by Brant Lake Taxi. Festivities begin at 8 p.m.

The North Country Hardship Fund is a 501c3 not-forprofit organization that was born from a benefit called Wayne Stock held in 2008 to raise funds for Wayne Bukovinsky, who was involved in a serious motorcycle accident. Wayne is slowly recovering thanks to all the people who donated to his cause.

As a way of giving back to the community, Wayne started the North Country Hardship Fund to raise money for CONTINUED ON PAGE 15

Adventure Fest, White Water Derby May 4-6

By Andy Flynn andy@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — Now that ski season is over, North Creek residents and visitors are ready for warm weather, and the 3rd Annual Adirondack Adventure Festival this weekend will help people get outside and enjoy the great outdoors.

The festival is being held at the same time and in cooperation with the 55th Annual White Water Derby on May 5-

6.

“It ties into our efforts to promote North Creek as a four-season town,” said Gore Mountain Region Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Pat Hamilton. “We have a guided hike, road bike tours, a guided mountain bike tour and river rafting. We want to showcase everything else we have going on here for the summer season.”

The Adirondack Adventure Festival is a weekend full of outdoor fun, entertainment, and family adventures around the Gore Mountain region.

This family-oriented event was created to increase the number of people visiting North Creek for the White Water Derby and offer other non-sports activities for paddlers’ families while they are in town.

This year, the Chamber has added more events for the festival, including a scavenger hunt, pony rides, a horseshoe tournament, more children’s games and afternoon concerts. The scavenger hunt — to be held both days — will start at the train station and go CONTINUED ON PAGE 15

Town pushes forward with grant project at Ski Bowl

By Mike Mender newsenterprise@denpubs.com JOHNSBURG — The Johnsburg Town Board on Tuesday, May 1 adopted a strategy to accomplish a grant-funded project at Ski Bowl Park that will include a new playground featuring a climbing boulder and a multi-use hike-and-bike path designed by local trail-blazing leg-

end Steve Ovitt.

But arriving at a decision regarding the direction of the project proved to be difficult.

Five years ago, the state awarded the town a parks and recreation matching grant that would allow the town to make more than $100,000 worth of improvements to Ski Bowl Park. The state would kick in half and the town would kick in the other half. The town’s portion could be

cash, materials, and/or labor, be it paid or volunteer. At the time, the town envisioned, among other things, a skateboard park, a volunteer-built wooden playground apparatus and renovations to the town beach.

A lot has happened in the intervening years, not the least of which was an economic recession that still has many municipalities feeling its impact, including Johnsburg. With-

out funding to pay for the town’s portion, and with the grant being such that the town had to front the entire cost and then be reimbursed, the town hasn’t been in a position to accomplish much on the project.

The town has until November to either finish the project, get an extension to finish the project in future years, or, absent either of those options, the town could forfeit the CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

NORTH RIVER — Whitewater Challengers will hold a grand opening for its Aerial Zip Course and paintball activities on Saturday, May 5.

“These additional outdoor activities will give kids and adults a chance to increase their confidence by challenging themselves through our Aerial Zip Course or take advantage of our Woods Paintball and Target Range,” said Whitewater Challengers owner Marko Schmale.

The Aerial Zip Course is a series of eight bridge elements, two zap lines, and the big finish zip line. There is an easy route through the course ending with the zip line and a victory loop of bridges that will add a more challenging experience.

The paintball range will be an activity that a family can do in between activities and will be set up similar to a carnival shooting gallery.

NORTH CREEK — The first Wilderness First Aid (WFA) training for 2012 took place on April 7 in North Creek.

Thirteen people took the class this month, which is offered at the Tannery Pond Community Center. The morning consisted of classroom training in how to evaluate and treat potential injuries and illness, such as bleeding, broken bones, bee stings, and cardiac arrest. During the afternoon, the class went on a hike on the Carol Thomas Trail to practice these first aid skills. Each person is assigned an injury or medical condition to simulate during the hike.

The other participants have to recognize that there is a problem, evaluate it, and then treat it using Wilderness First Aid protocols.

This is the seventh WFA class which has

Information Bulletin #3 on the May 15th JCS Board Election and Budget Vote We pay heavy taxes. What do we get for them? Let’s look: • For School Year 2009-10, 3rd and 4th Grade combined results of N.Y. State Assessments in English and Math, showed JCS students averaged 70% who reached or exceeded Level 3 (NB.: This is defined as student performance that demonstrates content knowledge “expected at their grade level”).

• The following year, 2010-11, the Level 3 test results combined for 3rd and 4th Grades in English and Math averaged 62%. Looked at differently, 62% at or above Level 3 means that the rest, or 38% of students, were at or below Level 2. (NB: Defined as student performance showing Partial Understanding of content knowledge “expected at this grade level”).

This is disappointing by any standard, and even more so when seen against JCS Expenditures Per Pupil reported in the Fiscal Accountability Supplement of the N.Y. State School Report Card for 2009-10 (latest available).

2009-2010 School Year Total Expenditure per Pupil

Similar District Group $18,262

This shows JCS cost per pupil is 40% above costs of similar schools. What’s worse is why our School Board hasn’t highlighted these facts at their meetings? Don’t we need a new dynamic member on our Board, a member who has the business and education experience to control organization costs?

Johnsburg School Board candidate’s advertisements questioned

By Jim Nash

newsenterprise@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — Anger is growing in the Johnsburg Central School District over election ads that accuse the board of keeping financial and student-performance secrets from the community and kowtowing to its unions.

For a second straight board meeting, residents have asked board members and Superintendent Michael Markwica about the ads, paid for by school board hopeful Tony Moro and published in the News-Enterprise.

In the ads, Moro lays sins of omission and commission at the district's feet. It's a varied list of grievances that together alleges the board withholds studies that he says show Johnsburg students underperform and tax money is wasted. Moro's ads also accuse the board of ceding too much power to teachers and faculty and their unions.

Just as at the April 16 board meeting, retiree Moro attended the April 30 meeting, listening as parents of district students defended the district. Unlike the previous meeting, when Moro addressed accusations to the board, he sat silent as audience mem-

ber Brian Richards pointedly and repeatedly asked him to defend statements in his ads.

Richards' brother, Mark Richards, is on the school board.

After the board left the regular meeting this week for an executive session, Moro asked Richards, "Why didn't you call me at home" before the meeting, and encouraged him to do so in the future.

Though affable, Moro's conviction that money must be stripped from the school budget and unions declawed in order improve test scores grates vocal segments of the community.

During an interview with Moro after the board meeting, a calm but agitated Brian Richards interrupted to ask Moro again to back up his claims.

“I can’t just pull it out of thin air,” responded Moro, adding that he hadn't brought supporting research to the meeting.

“Why should I?” Richards said, “You are making points that are skewed, lack credibility or wrong.

You had the opportunity to make your case and you didn’t take it.”

Moro said he would make his case May 15,

the day the community votes on the budget and on four candidates for two open board seats now held by Mark Richards and Frank Morehouse Jr. Richards is running for re-election; Morehouse is not. Moro is joined by two other board challengers: Amy Sabattis and Rachel DeGroat.

I think the May 15th JCS Board Election is Really Important My Name is Claudio Cappabianca.

I’m a resident and have been a homeowner in the Town of Johnsburg since 1988.

Like many of you I care a lot for kids and their education. It is their future after all, and ours as well.

I’m deeply worried by long term trends I see at JCS, with spending steadily up and academic quality steadily flat. Serious trouble will result unless needed steps are taken NOW. We can’t kick the can down the road any longer. Unless we want it to kick back.

I recently spent 3 hours talking to Tony Moro. He’d be a great addition to the Board, with experience in management and finance, and vision in education, that none of the other six members have. The Board is badly in need of his active membership.

The North Creek Ski Bowl hut burns down 10 Years at Tannery Pond

By Glenn and Carol Pearsall

newsenterprise@denpubs.com (Editor’s Note: This is Part 2 of a 10-part series on the history of the Tannery Pond Community Center. The series will end on June 30, when the center celebrates its 10th anniversary with a gala event.)

NORTH CREEK — The landmark North Creek Ski Hut at the Ski Bowl burned on Dec. 6, 1999.

The alarm rang at 1:14 a.m. after a passing motorist spotted the flames from Route 28.

First Assistant Chief Steve Studnicky reported that the building was 80 to 90 percent consumed when the firefighters arrived. Town Supervisor Bill Thomas was quoted in the Glens Falls Post-Star as saying, “It’s always been a center of activity in the town,” and looking at the burned-out structure said, “It’s really sad to see this.”

Arson was immediately suspected. There had already been a rash of fires lately: On Nov. 20, a seasonal home in Indian Lake had

burned under suspicious circumstances and that same day a fire hit an old barn on the corner of Austin Pond Road and Route 28 in North Creek. Earlier that summer there had been suspicious fires in Minerva. After an extensive investigation, it was ultimately determined that it was probably an electrical problem that had caused the fire.

The Gore Mt. Ski Club, then limited to skiing the “ride up — ski down” Ski Bowl just west of town, wrote a letter to the Town Board on Oct. 23, 1940 strongly recommending that the town build a warming hut at the ski area. The Town Board acted with speed and on Nov. 7 a resolution was passed to prepare engineering plans. Within three weeks a road had been built to the site and trucks volunteered by the North River Garage and the A & B Oil Company were hauling fieldstone for the building’s foundation, basement and fireplaces. Materials and volunteers were supplied locally and the WPA provided up to 60 men.

By September of 1941, the basement was completed. When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor that December, the WPA found they could now only supply a dozen or so men given the war effort, but work still moved forward, albeit more slowly.

It was built in the “Government Rustic Style” evident today by log and boulder structures still in use at Yosemite, Crater Lake, the Grand Canyon and Glacier National Parks. By winter, 4-foot-logs in the giant

first floor fireplace roared out heat and warmth and in February of 1942 a heating plant was installed.

Over the ensuing 57 years thousands of local and visiting skiers had sought warm at the Ski Hut. It was also used as a meeting place for many local organizations, numerous weddings and family gatherings.

Dances for local teenagers were held here summers in the 1960s and the North Creek Chamber of Commerce used the building on many occasions. Just before the fire, the Ski Hut had also been used to store the official records of the Town of Johnsburg Court Proceedings, all of which were lost in the 1999 fire.

The insurance proceeds totaled $238,841 and were paid the following May with an additional $31,000 to be released when the building was re-built. But the town board was in a quandary: what could they build for that amount of money and what exactly were the town’s real needs as it entered the 21st century?

Katy Odell, editor of the North Creek News Enterprise wrote an editorial at the time of the fire saying, “With the Ski Hut gone, Johnsburg residents are faced with the major decision of how to replace the structure. Keeping in mind the growing and diverse needs of the community for a central gathering place, now is the time to consider all uses

First Indian Lake small business basics session a success INDIAN LAKE — Twenty-three well seasoned small business owners and those planning to open their own business attended the Business Basics session held on April 22.

Andy Allison, Business Advisor, at North Country Small Business Development Center (SBDC), engaged the group in lively discussions focused on: business, developing marketing plans, financial statements, capital, record keeping and SBDC Services. The Indian Lake Chamber of Commerce and the Main Street Revitalization Committee

sponsored the successful and well attended Session.

Session attendee endorsements were very positive. Lenny and Boka Baglieri, of Blue Mountain Rest, said, “Andy was impressive with complete command of his presentation material. The next day we contacted him and scheduled an appointment to help us with a business plan for my wife's new food service business in Blue Mt Lake, ‘The Grizzly Grill.’”

The Main Street Revitalization Committee and Chamber of Commerce was

pleased with the attendance and results and reminds all interested entrepreneurs of another business session opportunity: My Small Business 101, to be held 9 a.m. - 1 p.m., Saturdays, May 12 and 19, at the Indian Lake School. Marc Compeau, a successful business owner and Clarkson University Entrepreneur Center Director, will lead the classes.

For further information and registration for My Small Business 101, call: (518) 648-5636 or (315) 268-3395 or email entrepreneurshipcenter@clarkson.edu. A $60 fee is required.

for a new public building that will serve today’s residents and visitors. The need for space for local government offices, meetings, entertainment, warming skiers, and youth programs should all be considered when deciding on a new structure. Out of the ashes comes the opportunity now to plan wisely for a new community center to take the town to the next century.”

Not much seemed to happen — and then Woody and Elise Widlund, who had semi-retired to the Garnet Hill Development in North River stepped forward.

Tannery Pond worth the investment

W

e’re proud to announce that Glenn and Carol Pearsall are currently writing a 10-part series about the Tannery Pond Community Center for the News Enterprise.

The series began last week with a story on “The Tannery” and will continue until June 30, when North Creek celebrates the 10th anniversary of the Tannery Pond Community Center with a gala event.

This series will celebrate the essence of the Tannery Pond Community Center.

Glenn: “The theme I think we’ll develop over the 10 articles and will not just be its history but how in many ways it has helped re-define the town and made North Creek’s energy and prosperity the envy of many small Adirondack towns.”

Today, the Tannery Pond Community Center is the hub of cultural activities in the Gore Mountain Region. Ten years ago, there were still a lot of unknowns.

While there was a lot of optimism, the idea of a town-owned community center was controversial. Some taxpayers were skeptical at first about this building’s maintenance costs to the town of Johnsburg. Yet history has shown that the Tannery Pond Community Center was a worthwhile investment. We have found that the town has survived, even though officials continue to deal with maintenance concerns.

Imagine living here without the Tannery Pond Community Center. The void would be unbearable and make it difficult for North Creek to grow and thrive as one of the premier resort destinations in the Adirondack Park.

This is a versatile building.

Home of the Widlund Gallery and the Gore Mountain Region Chamber of Commerce, it has hosted musical and theatrical performances and lectures. There have been many art shows, White Water Derby award ceremonies, films, family parties and gatherings, and Teens Only! events.

And the recent Adirondack Economic Development Conference showed that Tannery Pond is a great venue for regional conferences. North Creek is strategically situated to draw people from northern Warren, southern Essex and Hamilton counties. There’s no reason we shouldn’t be inviting people to host more conferences here.

May 5, 2012

That will be up to the Tannery Pond Community Center Association and its new executive director, who will be hired soon. We’re confident this will mark the beginning of an exciting new chapter in the history of North Creek.

The Tannery Pond Community Center was dedicated on June 29, 2002. It was a gift from Elise and Woody Widlund to the town of Johnsburg. The Town Board at the time included Supervisor Bill Thomas and councilors Eugene Arsenault, Helen Cornwall, Arnold Stevens and Alyce Van Keuren.

With renewed interest in the North Creek train station — thanks to the commitment of the North Creek-Saratoga Railway — the Tannery Pond Community Center is now playing a more important role in the economic vitality of North Creek. The depot is the northern anchor on Main Street and Tannery Pond is the southern anchor. Both are working in tandem to supply tourists — especially those arriving on the train — with a unique visitor experience. Because the Community Center and the train station are within walking distance, there are ample chances for people to stop along the way and shop and eat at local restaurants.

For the past 10 years, the Tannery Pond Community Center Association has stayed true to its mission of serving the community by “providing educational, cultural, recreational and social opportunities for all ages.”

When the former Alexander ’s garage/Bacon garage was up for sale in 1999, the Widlunds bought the property to retain the open space character of the village. Then the WPA Ski Bowl building burned down in the fall of 1999, leaving North Creek without a community center.

And the Widlunds quickly decided to donate the garage property to the town for the Tannery Pond Community Center.

It is a gift that keeps on giving.

We are thankful to the Widlunds for this building and to the town of Johnsburg for its outstanding stewardship. It is much more than wood, concrete and steel.

Tannery Pond Community Center is the heartbeat of this community.

1833 needlepoint sampler from Johnsburg

Andy Flynn

e all try to leave a little piece of us behind before we go.

Deborah Noble did in 1833 when she created a needlepoint sampler, listing the members of her family. She was only 8 years old, way too young to begin exploring the nature of her own mortality, yet old enough to fulfill a family tradition while learning the art of needlepoint.

The Nobles lived in the Warren County town of Johnsburg.

David Noble, a Wesleyan Methodist minister from Ireland, moved to America in 1795, arriving in the Johnsburg area in 1800 at a place that would become known as the hamlet of Noble’s Corners. At the time, this was the town of Thurman in Washington County. The town of Johnsburg was created from Thurman in 1805, and Warren County was formed from Washington County in 1813.

Noble’s son and daughter-inlaw, Archibald and Margaret Noble, were Deborah Noble’s parents and are listed on the top of her needlepoint sampler above the names of her siblings, in order of age: David, Thomas, Mary, Eleanor and William. Deborah’s needlework is cotton thread sewn on linen cloth. A one-door and 11-window blue house was sewn to the right of

the children’s names. At the bottom of the 11-by-10-inch piece, the 8-year-old recorded her own history: “Deborah M Noble was born October 22nd 1824 and in 1833 made this, aged 8 years, under the tuition of Eleanor Noble.”

In 1982, the Adirondack Museum bought the needlepoint sampler from Richard Dudley, of Dudley Antiques in South Glens Falls, along with two other needlepoint samplers from the same family, one from Eleanor Noble and another made by Mary Eleanor Spoor (dated March 4, 1859), the niece of Deborah and Eleanor and daughter of their sister, Mary Noble Spoor. Deborah’s piece is artifact No. 1982.129.2 in the museum’s collection.

Deborah’s sampler was made on homespun linen. In the 1800s, pioneer women made clothes for

their families. They used the larger wool wheels to spin wool into yarn and the smaller flax wheels to either spin flax into thread or wool into yarn. Before they could start spinning yarn, families needed to raise the sheep and shear wool from the animals. Fibers from the flax plant could also be used for cloth-making, and that meant growing flax in the fields, harvesting the crop and extracting flax fibers from the stalks for spinning. Cloth made from flax is called linen.

Deborah’s paternal grandfather, David Noble, was born in 1734 in Ireland, according to the “History of Warren County,” by H.P. Smith (1885). His parents were Archibald and Eleanor Noble, and, as a widower, he moved his four sons and three daughters to New York City in 1795.

There, along with eldest son

Archibald, he earned a living as a stone and brick mason. The Noble family heeded John Thurman’s call to settle the Thurman Patent and moved to the Adirondack region in 1800, buying 400 acres, split equally among the four sons (Archibald, Edward, William and John). They erected log buildings near Beaver Brook.

David Noble died on July 10, 1807 while visiting his eldest daughter, Jane Noble Empey, in Arlington, Vt. Deborah’s father, Archibald, was listed in Smith’s history as an assessor for the town of Johnsburg in 1807 and town supervisor from 1829 to 1832. Her brother, David (born July 11, 1804), supplied the family history for Smith’s book and was postmaster of Wevertown at the time. In 1833, he moved 3 miles from the family home to Wevertown (spelled “Weavertown” in the 1800s) after the tannery was built. He opened a store there in 1844.

Tanneries shaped the early history of north Warren County and communities like Wevertown, especially in the landmark year of 1833. It was the year Deborah Noble created her now-famous needlepoint sampler, a year that saw the beginning of more than 50 years of prosperity at the Weavertown Tannery.

Smith reported that the tannery was to close in the fall of 1885 “because of the scarcity, and distance from headquarters, of [hemlock] bark.”

This needlepoint sampler is, like the attic window in the 11window house that adorns it, a window to the past. And we must thank little Deborah Noble for leaving it behind.

Hester’s History (cont.)

I believe Helene is now living in West Glens Falls, with her husband, Leon Newton.(Both have passed away since this writing). Mary who was her baby sister. later married Joseph Stone and they went west somewhere. I have one uncle yet alive who I believe is about 95 years old; and living in Ohio with his son and his son's wife, Uncle Scott Russell. He had one son, Henry who married Virginia Galusha and later they separated. Henry married another woman whom I never got acquainted with. She died within the last two years, I believe.

As I recall my childhood was a happy time, as a rule. We children loved to be in our farm home and play with our calves and lambs. We even led the colts in our long shed, when it was too cold in winter to play outside, we, as teenagers, did quite a bit to take care of the cattle and sheep. We used to teach the calves to lead.

At one time my twin sister claimed a big lamb and I a big calf, which we taught to drive.

Enjoy each and every day.

Bridge book, Denpubs website garner state, national awards ELIZABETHTOWN — The Lake Champlain Bridge Commemorative Book earned top honors at the New York Press Association (NYPA) and Association of Free Community Papers (AFCP) at recent award ceremonies.

The book, which details the history of the Lake Champlain Bridge from 1929 until its demolition and the construction of the new bridge, won for best advertising promotion for separate publication with partial or completely separate distribution at the

AFCP Conference in Atlanta, Ga., along with best Historical, Anniversary or Progress piece from the NYPA at their annual conference in Saratoga Springs.

“This book is a tribute to all those who worked night and day through the frigid cold of our North Country winters and the blistering summer heat to restore the Lake Champlain Bridge,” said Denton Publications Publisher Daniel Alexander. “None of us will ever cross this bridge without thinking of its importance to

the people who live here and have come to depend so heavily on the strength of its existence.”

The judges commented, "This publication took advantage of a bridge rebuild to create a commemorative book and did a superb job! Beautiful and memorable! " The Denton Publications website, www.denpubs.com, also earned top honors from the AFCP for best presentation of news on the Internet (judges comment: "Really easy to use. Share buttons add

nicely to user interaction”).

The organization also received a first place award for best automotive ad, black plus multiple color fountains, that was published in The Burgh.

Judges said, "A powerful ad!

Great attention to detail. Photographs are placed as Polaroids and work well with the theme!"

The Eagle, out of Middlebury, Vt., also received a first place win for self promotion of classifieds, with judges stating the ad “directs the reader exactly where they

need to go to place classifieds online.”

Other AFCP awards included a third place award for presentation of classified advertising on the Internet; a second place award for best printed color single ad between 6 to 12-inches in depth (published in the North Countryman); and an Honorable Mention and third place for advertising promotion in the Green Mountain Outlook and News Enterprise.

The Valley News received a third place award for its spot

news coverage of Tropical Storm Irene at the NYPA conference to go along with the award for the Lake Champlain Bridge book.

At the Free Community Papers of New York Convention, Denpubs.com received a third place mention for online with website as well as a third place finish for online presence via Facebook. The organization also received a pair of second place awards for special promotions (published in the Valley News) and color single ad (published in the Times of Ti).

Ski Bowl grant from page 1 grant. In order to grant an extension, the state wants to see “substantial progress” on the project, project coordinator Kelly Nessle said.

Compounding the situation, the plan has gone through an evolution of sorts since it was first conceived. And the state must approve changes to the original proposal.

Skateboard parks are no longer in vogue.

And the prospect of marshaling a sufficient number of volunteers to build a wooden playground apparatus loomed as a daunting task, Nessle said.

Tuesday, the board wrangled with the question of how to proceed with the project, what to include in the project, or whether the project should proceed at all.

Nessle and Ovitt made an impassioned presentation in an effort to get the project moving forward.

In place of a skateboard park, Ovitt, a former state forest ranger, shared a vision of a 3-kilometer “hardened single track” trail suitable for biking and hiking that would link the North Creek Train Depot, Town Hall and Ski Bowl Park and along the way intersect with several established hiking trails to provide a network linking the hamlet of North Creek with thousands of acres of pris-

tine wilderness including Gore.

Jeff Palka, owner of The Gear Source cycling shop, told the board that such a trail would be the first of its kind in the Northeast and described the trail system as akin to those one might find at big ski resorts out west such as Telluride.

“Cyclers from all over would come here for that,” Palka said. “They could actually start right in town. It would be unique.”

Ovitt said the trail network would be ideal for Nordic skiing in the winter and would provide year-round benefit.

Town Board members seemed enthusiastic about the proposal. Yet there was one major issue to resolve. Councilman Arnold Stevens framed the issue succinctly.

“To me it’s a simple thing,” Stevens said.

“We have a project. Do we have the money?”

Nessle told the board that the project was a “steal of a deal,” and explained that for a net final investment of about $38,000 and some sweat equity, the town could have improvements to the park worth three times that amount.

“To me it’s a no-brainer,” Nessle said and urged the board to find a way to pay for the project. About $25,000 has already been identified as available funding, Nessle reminded the board. She urged them to consider taking out a bond anticipation note (BAN) so that the town could front the full cost of

The Inn On Gore Mountain

the project. When the state reimbursed the town, the town could pay off the note.

“Even if you did a BAN for $100,000, you’re only going to actually spend a third of that in the long term,” Nessle said.

Both Nessle and Councilman Peter Olesheski said ideally they’d like to see the town push forward and complete the project by November. Olesheski said that if the project had to be broken up into phases and completed over two years, he’d like to see the playground be the first priority.

“The trail project is fantastic,” he said.

“But it doesn’t need to be top billing.”

The playground was part of the original plan and the town should move forward with it and get it done, he added. Kids in the town, including his own small children, could benefit from the playground as soon as this summer, he said.

Vanselow, however, initially said he’d like to see the town save some of its resources for the trail system, in case the state doesn’t grant an extension.

“I’d like to move forward with the trail,” Vanselow said, adding that he’d like to believe the town would find a way to pay for it even if the state grant didn’t cover the cost.

He urged the town to move forward with the trail while continuing to pursue a dialogue with the state. Vanselow noted that even if the state did include the trail in the grant, reimbursement of grant-eligible expenses could take up to six months, maybe longer.

Ninety minutes into the discussion, after a protracted back-and-forth about the mer-

May 5, 2012 its of various approaches to accomplishing the project, Olesheski presented a motion to proceed with the construction of the playground portion of the project and the first phase of the trail loop this year and, assuming an extension from the state, complete the project next year.

After much introspection, Councilwoman Kate Nightingale seconded the motion, reasoning that if the state needed to see substantial progress on the project in order to grant an extension, then the playground would be the most attainable way to show substantial progress.

Ultimately, Vanselow agreed to support the motion, calling it an act of good faith.

Stevens voted in favor as well, urging the town to put as much “reasonable pressure” on the state as possible to get the project changes approved and an extension granted.

The board agreed to hold off on any decision regarding a bond anticipation note, agreeing that details could be worked out as the project moved forward.

In other news, the board voted to change the schedule at the transfer station to allow town staff to focus on work in the parks two additional days of the week. Consequently, the transfer station will be closed Thursdays and Fridays beginning June 1. It will be open Saturday through Wednesday during the same hours as it currently is.

The Johnsburg Town Board convenes again at 7 p.m., Tuesday, May 15 at Tannery Pond Community Center in North Creek.

Mother’s Day Tidbits and Trivia Mother’s Day is a day devoted to celebrating mothers and expressing love for the special women in our lives. Mother’s Day can also be a time to share some trivia and tidbits with those special women who mean so much.

• Americans owe Mother’s Day to West Virginia native Anna Jarvis, who held a memorial for her mother two years after the latter’s death in 1905. After the memorial, Jarvis devoted her efforts to a campaign to make Mother’s Day a nationally recognized holiday. The hard work paid off in 1914 when the day was nationally recognized.

• Anna Jarvis and her sister, Ellsinore, eventually grew to detest what they felt Mother’s Day had become. The sisters felt the day had grown too commercialized, and spent their family inheritance campaigning against Mother’s Day. • Ironically, Anna Jarvis never married and had no children.

• Rajo Devi Lohan of India is believed to be the world’s oldest new mother. Lohan gave birth to a baby girl at age 70 after receiving IVF treatment. Within two years of the child’s birth, reports indicated Lohan’s health was deteriorating.

• Lina Medina is considered to be the youngest to ever give birth.

Medina delivered a 61/2-pound baby boy in Peru at the age of 5

Mother’s Day Tidbits and Trivia years and 7 months. Medina was believed to have a rare condition known as precocious puberty, which enabled her to conceive at such a young age.

• Ancient Egyptians had their own form of Mother’s Day by honoring the goddess Isis, who was known as the mother of pharaohs.

• The wife of Russian peasant Feodor Vassilyev is considered to be the record holder for birthing the most children. Mrs. Vassilyev is believed to have delivered 69 children between 1725 and 1765. These children were delivered in a total of 27 births, including 16 pairs of twins, seven sets of triplets and four sets of quadruplets.

Though little is known about the births or Mrs. Vassilyev, 67 of the 69 children were said to have survived infancy.

• The bond between mother and child is not exclusive to the human race. Mother chimpanzees, for instance, are said to develop lifelong relationships with their children.

• Carnations are the flowers most associated with Mother’s Day. White carnations are worn in the memory of deceased mothers, while red and pink carnations are worn for those mothers who are still alive.

MINERVA — Donkeyball was the name of the game.

Donkey (noun) — A longeared domesticated member of the horse family, descended from the African wild ass.

Latin name: Equus asinus.

Donkey Basketball (noun) — An interesting (some might say bizarre) combination of donkeys, a basketball game, and people, often requiring patience, occasional falls, ability to play basketball under difficult conditions, and humility.

These two nouns were combined on Friday evening, April 27, in the Minerva Central School gymnasium, for a time of fun, laughs, and yes, humility. There is little more humbling than trying to hang on to the smooth back of donkey with a mind of its own while trying to shoot baskets in the presence of a large crowd of laughing, pointing, and cheering fans. A lot of people did indeed accomplish this at the school this past Friday, and it was a

great time with a great crowd. It was a fun thing to participate in, and it was certainly a swell spectacle to witness.

This successful event was sponsored by the Minerva Central School Class of 2013.

In fact, MCS Juniors didn’t just organize the fun — they participated in it, opposing the MCS Seniors in a noholds-barred (almost) contest to complete the evening.

The first game was equally cut-throat, involving a battle between MCS faculty and members of the Minerva Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad.

The whole evening was, in a word, intense and fun.

Provided by Green Mountain Donkeyball of Danby, Vt., the donkeys at Minerva Central School were polite and thoughtful, at least most of the time. According to a lengthy definition found via Google, donkeys have a strong sense of self-preservation, with can sometimes be regarded as stubbornness. Some of this stubbornness was witnessed on Friday evening. Lynn Green, a rider for both the fire de-

Minerva residents clean up town

By Mike Corey

newsenterprise@denpubs.com MINERVA — The morning of Saturday, April 28 was chilly, no doubt about it — a not-so-thin film of ice could be found in many places, including bits of container trash along the Minerva roadsides.

On the other hand, blackflies were nowhere to be found, a situation that proved to be most pleasant for the 25 or 30 folks who were out in force along the roadsides for the town’s annual clean-up day.

Roadside finds were not especially spectacular — included were the usual mix of beer and wine containers, plastic trash, paper products, and stuff that had once been important parts of vehicles but which had come flying off them (e.g. cracked hubcaps). But, along the way roadside cleanup folks (both kids and adults) found golf

balls, car hoods, piggy banks, a softball, and other more colorful items.

The bottom line is that residents came out and pitched in to make the community look good.

Most pickers came to the pavilion at around noon that day to enjoy hotdogs, hamburgers, chili, various salads, chips and soda pop as part of the clean-up celebration.

Organizers thanked Betty LeMay and Mike McSweeney for working on lunch for the crowd and to Betty for organizing roadside assignments, plastic bags, etc.

They also thanked the folks who prepared lunchtime salads and shared them with the hungry workers at the pavilion; and Dan Lynn for picking up trash-filled bags that the pickers thoughtfully left along Minerva’s roadsides, for the trip to the transfer station.

Johnsburg gains clarity on fire protection issues

By Mike Mender

newsenterprise@denpubs.com JOHNSBURG — Johnsburg Town Supervisor Ron Vanselow announced progress Tuesday on two fire protection issues, bringing a measure of closure to uncertain situations that have dragged on for weeks.

On one front, Vanselow told those assembled at the Tuesday, May 1 Town Board meeting that Bakers Mills Fire Chief Lewis Hitchcock came to his office that morning and told Vanselow that he would no longer refuse to answer emergency calls that require his trucks to go up roads whose grades exceed 8 percent. Hitchcock explained that he based his refusal on erroneous information that he had received from a source “at the county” that he declined to name.

Vanselow said that Hitchcock apologized for the confusion

caused by the misinformation.

The question arose in connection with the proposed Ward Hill Subdivision. The proposed plan included a private road whose grade approached but did not exceed 12 percent.

Hitchcock spoke up at a recent Planning Board meeting and told the board that his company would not respond to calls in the proposed subdivision if the road grade exceeded 8 percent.

The Planning Board and the project engineer both maintained that the town code allows grades up to 12 percent. Yet the lack of an assurance of fire protection would mean the Planning Board would have difficulty approving projects in the Bakers Mills Fire District with roads that exceed 8 percent, such as Ward Hill.

With the chief ’s acknowledgement, the matter of fire protection for Ward Hill appears to be settled.

“The grade issue is resolved,” Vanselow said.

Vanselow also announced that he believes the town’s fire protection gap in the wake of Wevertown Fire Department’s decision to fold is resolved.

Vanselow told the Town Board that the North Creek fire commissioners met last week and agreed to extend the North Creek Fire District boundary to Wevertown. North Creek Volunteer Fire Company will respond to calls in a substantial portion of what was the Wevertown Fire District.

Vanselow said that the Johnsburg Fire Department has agreed to pick up the remaining area not included in the newly configured North Creek Fire District.

To make the new fire district boundary changes official, the town must hold a public hearing to offer residents a chance to comment on the plan.

The Town Board voted to schedule the required public hearing for 7 p.m., Tuesday, June 5 at the Wevertown Community Center.

Johnsburg Central students go climbing with Adirondack TREKS NORTH CREEK — On Friday, April 27, 10 Johnsburg kids traveled to RockSport, the climbing gym in Queensbury.

Participants included Galen and Willow Hogan, Justin and Clayton Schmale, Liam and Mia Connelly, Brent and Weston Azaert, Ryan Reidinger, and Sandra Malikowski. Also participating were parents Andrea Hogan, Joe Connelly, and Linnea Newman who provided the transportation. The trip was led by TREKS founding member Rick Morse. The climbing program is organized

by TREKS founding member Joseph San Antonio.

The SUNY Adirondack intern, Jennifer Beckler, has been helpful with the climbing outings, as well as with other aspects of TREKS. She has produced a color brochure, is producing a PowerPoint presentation which will be used to publicize the program in local schools, and is developing plans for an overnight experience at SUNY Adirondack for leadership training on June 9 and 10. While assisting the TREKS program, Beckler has gained valuable work experience to compliment her academic education at the Adventure Sports program at

Weston Azaert SUNY Adirondack.

Beckler grew up in the outdoor recreation business; her family owns Natural Stone Bridge and Caves in Pottersville.

The outing was one of many which are sponsored by Adirondack TREKS. TREKS is an outing program for kids in the greater Gore Mountain region. There are climbing trips every other Friday. There are also canoe and hiking trips scheduled during the summer. For more information, go to the TREKS website at adktreks.org.
