Essex County looks at wood pellet heating option

Northern Forest Center pitches supers on heating system

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ With a new county kitchen and several capital projects going on throughout the county, members of the Economic Development Committee heard about an alternative heating source during its May 8 meeting.

Leslie Karasin from the Northern Forest Center of the Adirondack Model Neighborhood Wood Heat Initiative spoke to members of the board, telling them about the wood pellet heating services they provide to municipalities and non-profits. Ò Our goal was to discover how can we heat our homes and buildings with the forest resources we have in the region,Ó Karasin said. Ò All sorts of entities have benefited from he installation of these boilers.Ó Karasin, based out of Concord, N.H., said her company provides heating services to an area covering parts of New York, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine.

She based her presentation on two main points: Cheaper cost for heating and the ability to help the local economy. Ò The North Country spends $200 million in heating oil, 80 percent immediately leaves our region and does not benefit us,Ó Karasin said. Ò It hurts us to write those huge fuel oil checks and it hurts use more because that money does not stay here locally. This keeps the money invested locally.Ó Locally, bulk pellet mills can be found in Massena and Rutland, Vt., as well as just outside Utica.

Karasin added that she had been talking with Essex Box and Pallet about the program Ò through another branch.Ó Ò They do not currently manufacture bulk pellets. We have been talking to them about producing bulk pellets in the future,Ó she said. >> See PELLETS | pg. 5

Struggling railway downsizes schedule

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK Ñ The Saratoga-North Creek Railway will be running its passenger trains on weekends only this summer due to low ridership, a move that has prompted Warren County officials to reexamine the contract with the railway.

The recent announcement by railway general manager Justin Gonyo follows the enterpriseÕ s decision several months ago to scrap their winter train service on the county-owned tracks.

The announcement on May 1 at a county meeting spurred county supervisors to immediately retreat behind closed doors to discuss their contract with the railwayÕ s parent company, Iowa Pacific Holdings. This second five-year pact between the two parties specifies that the railway run a minimum of 100 passenger train trips annually between May and October.

Acting County Administrator Kevin Geraghty offered his thoughts on the schedule cutback, as tourist trains have been touted for years as potentially a key driver of the North Creek areaÕ s economy. Ò Obviously weÕ re concerned theyÕ re cutting back service,Ó he said on Tuesday, Ò But itÕ s not my place to tell them how to conduct their business.Ó Geraghty has urged Iowa Pacific officials to follow through on their repeated pronouncements about securing contracts to haul freight on the railway.

Gonyo revealed May 1 that Iowa PacificÕ s negotiations to haul hundreds of thousands of tons of highgrade gravel from Tahawus Ñ negotiations that were ongoing for many months Ñ had fallen through.

Geraghty reiterated his belief that hauling freight was vital to the railwayÕ s survival. Ò The rail line will not be viable until they find another revenue source besides passenger service, and that will be freight,Ó he said.

Conversion to ‘rail trail’ sought Curt Austin, a rail trail advocate, told the Sun now is the time for supervisors to take a hard look at the future of the railroad.

The Chestertown resident has advocated that the county turn the rail line into a bicycle and pedestrian trail, noting the remarkable success of Ò rail trailsÓ elsewhere in the nation, as many thousands of people are drawn to such venues, boosting local economies. Ò The Saratoga North Creek Railway is obviously in a downward trend, as its passenger counts have declined every year,Ó he said. Ò Running a train two days per week is getting pretty close to zero.Ó He said he hopes that the county supervisors deny their request to reduce service, and the railway is removed as operator.

Austin has said he and others envision that the 29 miles of railroad tracks north of North Creek to Tahawus Ñ which Iowa Pacific Holdings bought several years ago Ñ could be acquired to make an 87-mile rail trail from Saratoga to Tahawus, offering breathtaking unspoiled scenery Ñ and a lengthy bicycle excursions that would attract thousands of people to the region, boosting the economies of the small towns along the rail trail.

Iowa Pacific acquired the 29 miles of railroad from North Creek to Tahawus several years ago.

Austin said heÕ d like to see Essex, Saratoga and Warren counties band together to buy the track and convert it to a rail trail Ñ which could be paid partially by the salvage value of the abandoned track. Ò There would be no other rail trail like in the eastern U.S.,Ó he said, citing how it would offer an unequalled bicycle trips into the wilderness.

Also, Austin noted that Dick Beamish of Saranac Lake, an advocate of converting a railroad bed from Lake Placid to Tupper Lake Ñ an effort thatÕ s now underway Ñ has conceived even more ambitious plans.

He said Beamish envisions that AustinÕ s proposed Saratoga-Tahawus rail trail could be connected with the Placid-Tupper rail trail via a roadside bikeway along Rtes. 30 and 28N, enabling really long bicycle trips through the Adirondacks. Austin said Beamish has recently been seeking an audience with state officials to propose the concept.

Law Enforcement Weekend approaching

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE Ñ This weekend, dozens of police and other law officers will be enjoying camaraderie and relaxation in the region, as the first-ever Lake George Law Enforcement Officers Weekend is held.

The event, which is set for May 19 and 21, includes fellowship, friendly competitions, cruises and other family-oriented activities, as well as seminars on police-related topics.

The weekend concludes with a memorial service for fallen officers at 9 a.m. in the Shepard Park amphitheater, and the public is invited.

This retreat for law enforcement officers is not only intended to provide downtime for police and corrections officers, but it will also offer respite and relaxation for two families who each lost a loved one to cancer attributed to their help in rescue and recovery efforts after terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center.

For months, the organizers of Law Enforcement Weekend have gathered donations and made arrangements for the family of New York City Deputy Chief James Malloy and the family of state Trooper Brian Falb to enjoy an expenses-paid getaway.

Molloy, who died in January at the age of 55, led search and rescue efforts at Ground Zero for six months following the 9/11 terror attacks. Falb, who worked at Ground Zero for six weeks, died of brain cancer several months ago.

Just last week, Law Enforcement Weekend organizer Austin Glickman announced that the family of Timothy Pratt, a fallen state trooper from South Glens Falls, would also be attending the Law Enforcement Weekend with the help of many donors to the groupÕ s foundation.

Pratt died last October after he was struck by a vehicle while assisting a trucker stopped on Ballard Road in Wilton. Ò Our weekend will be highlighting the sacrifices these men made not only for New York, but the entire nation,Ó he said.

The Law Enforcement Weekend formed a non-

profit corporation, and donations are now being accepted towards providing families of fallen officers or those seriously injured in the line of duty with all-expense-paid vacations.

Glickman said recently that on Saturday May 20, two large police motorcycle groups Ñ Blue Knights of New York and Blue Friday Ñ will be riding into Lake George to participate in Law Enforcement Weekend.

TheyÕ ll be arriving in the afternoon with the mission of raising money for families of police officers whose deaths were related to their duty. Several other fundraisers for fallen police officers will be held at various times at the retreatÕ s headquarters, the Fort William Henry conference center.

From 6 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday night, the 4S4Life Foundation will be holding their Ò Heroes Matter Protect & Serve Party at the Fire & Ice Bar at 175 Canada St.. This fundraiser for ailing law officers features music by a band, a deejay, plus drink specials.

Plans for the weekend include such activities as golf, shooting competitions and practice, an armored vehicle pull, receptions, cruises and a barbecue. Also, the weekend will feature a comedy show with three noted comedians, one of them a former police officer who was a semifinalist on AmericaÕ s Got Talent.

Registration is not only open to present, former or retired police officers, corrections officers and others involved in the field of law enforcement Ñ but those citizens seeking to express support of law enforcement.

Monday, Lake George Village Mayor urged the public to sign up for the event and enjoy the various activities Ñ or just attend SundayÕ s public memorial ceremony. Ò Attend and show these Ô Men in BlueÕ our appreciation for all they do every day to keep our area safe and a great place to live and visit,Ó he said.

For event reservations and information Ñ or to donate towards providing Ò Blue Star familiesÓ with a getaway, see: www.LEOweekend.com or register on site at the Fort William Henry Conference Center.

Karasin said the program has already set up instillations in Tupper Lake, Saranac Lake and Saranac for residential use of what she called a Ó modern heating solution.Ó Ò We are looking to do at least 10 municipal and non-profit installations in Essex, Clinton, Franklin, Hamilton or St. Lawrence counties,Ó she added. Ò We are looking to provide wood pellet heating for county, town and school buildings; highway or EMS buildings, any non-profit buildings in the community.

A perfect candidate would be a building which needs a new boiler and the building has hot water heating.Ó Funding for a new wood pellet boiler would come from grant dollars and philanthropic dollars which the center is using to get boilers deployed throughout the region. Ò It has supported the installation of 125 of these boilers, both municipally and with home owners,Ó Karasin said. Ò The program can also be layered with funds from Renewable Heat NY.Ó Karasin said she is currently working with North Hudson on a chord wood

burner, and has talked with the town of Westport about heating needs. Ò The estimate for Westport was $35,000,Ó Supervisor Michael Tyler said. Ò The state program will pay 45 percent of the installed cost.Ó Tyler also asked what the timeline would be if a municipality wanted to apply for funding for a boiler. Ò It can be as quick as you can do it,Ó Karasin said. Ò We could turn an application in within 24-48 hours. We will pay for a energy audit and we will help pay for it. If you were ready to put in a boiler tomorrow, we would be ready to subsidize it.Ó Ò We would like to know what our cost would be in relation to what we currently have,Ó North Elba Supervisor Roby Politi said.

Politi said the county could look at the boiler option for the new nutrition building and assigned county manager Dan Palmer to work with Karasin on the matter.

Yes, you can film public meetings A

typical week sees our newsroom receive all sorts of reader tips.

Some are credible, some are not.

But a recent week was unique in that two residents from opposite ends of the region reached out with identical concerns regarding their respective town governments: Ò Can we film public meetings?Ó Yes, of course you can.

And no, you do not have to announce your intent.

The Committee on Open Government, the state unit that advises the government and public on transparency issues, says it is Ò essential to the maintenance of a democratic societyÓ for public business to be performed in an open and public manner.

To fulfill that goal, New Yorkers have the right to observe the performance of public officials and Ò attend and listen toÓ the deliberations and decisions that go into the making of public policy.

This includes everything from to crafting zoning ordinances to revising local laws.

Still not assured?

HereÕ s the New York State Open Meetings Law statute regarding open meetings: Ò Any meeting of a public body that is open to the public shall be open to being photographed, broadcast, webcast, or otherwise recorded and/or transmitted by audio or video means.Ó This includes all public bodies.

Authorities can, however,

slam the door on executive sessions, or private sessions detailing personnel issues, ongoing or pending litigation, or any discussion that would imperil an Ò effective law enforcement investigationÓ if disclosed.

Also applicable: The discussion of the transfer of publiclyowned lands.

Aside from those caveats, meetings are public and you can film them.

But this doesnÕ t give the public carte blanche to run wild.

Public bodies can adopt rules Ò reasonably governingÓ the location of equipment and camera operators so that proceedings can be conducted in an orderly manner.

So in order words, be re-

spectful and donÕ t be obtrusive.

WeÕ ve seen that, too, which is equally as off-putting as surly local officials bristling at being filmed.

Thankfully, however, most of our local public servants appear to be honest, open and value public interaction.

But these resident concerns dovetail with the ever-present specter of attacks on the media.

The most recent assault on a free and independent press happened in West Virginia last week when a local reporter was arrested while trying to ask Secretary of Health and Human Services Tom Price a question regarding the Affordable Care Act.

The reporter, Dan Heyman of Public News Service, was charged with willful disruption of government processes.

Heyman had a press pass and was in his rights to ask a public official a question on public property.

The fact that he was detained for doing his job should be concerning no matter which side of the aisle you stand on.

While reporters are on the frontlines of ensuring an accountable and open government, so are regular folks Ñ especially our readers who tip us off to important local issues.

Keep those tip lines ringing.

Thanks for readingÉ and keep filming.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

TimeÊ toÊ showÊ appreciationÊ forÊ Ô MenÊ inÊ BlueÕÊ To the Editor: Too often many of us in this region take our safety and quality of life for granted. Each day we hear and read of crime occurring, particularly in our large cities, across the country.

We also read, far too often, the death of a police officer in the line of the duty.

This weekend, Lake George will be hosting law enforcement officers from across the country in the villageÕ s first annual Law Enforcement Officers Weekend (LEOW).

The officers are coming, many with their families, to enjoy our beautiful area, attend seminars and compete in a variety of events.

The weekend ends on May 21 at 9 a.m. with a brief memorial service honoring over 48 officers that have already been killed in 2017 performing their duty.

The LEOW is also hosting three families whose husbands passed away because of on-duty related deaths. They will be treated to a dinner cruise. Tickets to the Great Escape, shopping,

bowling and a brewery tour.

Here at home, just recently we had a shooting in Hague, solved within days. A bomb threat in area buildings and an arrest made the next day.

We also watched and heard of excellent police work accomplished by our local officers and the state police, along with our District Attorney as justice was brought about in a tragic boat accident.

This doesnÕ t happen without dedicated, hard-working professional individuals who risk their lives every day.

The officersÕ memorial service will be held beginning at 9 a.m.

Sunday in Shepard Park and is open to the public.

One of our local pastors will be joined by the Chaplain of the New York State Police and the Emerald Society Bagpipe Band from the Department of Corrections.

Please attend and show our Ò Men in BlueÓ our appreciation for all they do every day to keep our area safe and a great place to live and visit.

Robert M. Blais Mayor Lake George Village

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Rep.Ê StefanikÊ worksÊ hardÊ forÊ herÊ district To the Editor: IÕ ve had enough of pettiness from those little voices who donÕ t have a first clue and just want to voice an unfounded opinion to badmouth someone.

Like fishing? Go fishing, or go jump in the lake. Run for office, try to do half the job our representative is doing.

Rep. Stefanik is not a magician, she is a representative of the North Country and a pretty darn good one at that.

She does not promise to give you the world in return for your vote and then not deliver.

She has promised to represent her district interest and she does just that.

Your individual interest may not be one of the majority.

Irregardless, you will benefit from much of the good work she does and others do approve of.

Terry Turner Pottersville

DisgustedÊ withÊ audienceÊ Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê membersÊ atÊ StefanikÊ townÊ hall To the Editor: I am writing this letter because I am so disgusted with the actions of the so-called adults who attended the taped Mountain Lake PBS forum with Rep. Elise Stefanik.

Thom Hallock instructed everyone to keep their remarks and questions short, and if someone already asked the question, have a backup.

He also told everyone to be respectful and quiet. Well, many people asked the same question, booed and made noises when they didnÕ t like Ms. StefanikÕ s answer and were just plain rude. They claimed to be intelligent people who wanted answers, but acted like school kids bullying someone because they didnÕ t like what was said. Not a great example for your children or grandchildren people.

Mr. Hallock did not control the audience at all.

I can see why Ms. Stefanik doesnÕ t do town hall forums.

If this is any example of what to expect, why bother? You learn a lot more with coffee meetings, small groups meeting, etc. You can have a one on one, get your questions answered with no outside boos and remarks.

Congresswoman Stefanik gave answers, some not what the person wanted to hear, but she did give answers and thanked everyone each time. It appeared to be a one-sided forum against Ms. Stefanik as just about everyone in the audience knew each other very well and all had the same questions and attitude. No open minds.

The American Healthcare Act is not great but itÕ s a start.

The Affordable Care Act had some good points, but is proving to be very costly. We need to start somewhere, which is why 65 percent of the voters in this district voted for Stefanik to start the movement of working for something better.

I do wish people would be more respectful of others, like them or not, vote for them or not, show some class.

Polly Belanger Willsboro

GOPÊ actingÊ immatureÊ followingÊ ACAÊ vote To the Editor: Ignorance is too soft a term for how the Republican Congress behaved after they voted to dump the Affordable Care Act. Our president surely showed his ignorance by laughing and acting like a fool to the American public.

No matter that 28 million Americans will be thrown off health care by 2026 and 20 million current users of the ACA will lose their insurance immediately. Those with cancer and other diseases will have no guarantee, as existing conditions will no longer be covered.

The Republicans tell us putting away $8 billion to cover existing conditions for the next five years will cover existing conditions.

Make no mistake: existing conditions include everything from a simple leg sprain to those on dialysis. The interpretation of existing conditions is left up to the insurance companies and be sure to know they will use it to raise your premiums. Your health history is no longer yours, as insurance companies will dig up what ever they can to

deny you coverage or charge you more.

Trump has done everything to make the rich grow richer and insurance companies are reporting greater earnings than ever before. The laughter from Speaker Ryan and President Trump was disgusting to say the least.

The Congressional Budget Office is non-political and has not even finished putting figures to TrumpÕ s latest health plan.

It did on the last plan and the figures are staggering. The CBO report can be found on cbo.gov/publication/52486.

One does not have to wonder how we got to this point, as the reason is your next door neighbor, who voted for Trump.

He promised health care for all, but left out the part about making the insurance companies richer! One can also go to cbsnews.com/news/what-is-a-pre-existing-condition/ and read a list that is sure to concern someone in your family.

Our only hope is that the Senate will not do as the Congress did and work to return the ACA with the changes it needs.

A simple letter to your state senator will help. TrumpÕ s election reminds me of the old axiom: Ò Be careful what you wish for as it may come back to bite you!Ó The grin on his face tells all!

Gary Philip Guido Ticonderoga

ExcitedÊ aboutÊ MoriahÊ waterfrontÊ development To the Editor: Concerning the Town of MoriahÕ s Waterfront Development Plan: As president of the Chamber of Commerce, I fully support the Town of MoriahÕ s efforts to create a waterfront destination by attracting investors, hotel developers and improving our waterfront beaches for residents and visitors.

The waterfront area of Moriah is the biggest asset and attraction for the community. It has been in need of prioritizing for over a decade. I am pleased with the fact that the town has hired a consultant that works within the community and makes improving our community a priority.

I know that there are major tasks that need to be addressed in order to create a waterfront destination in all Adirondack communities. The waterfront is an under-utilized resource that has potential for investors and developers and is the purpose of this application.

It is extremely exciting to know that Moriah has the potential to attract a developer that could create a waterfront destination, promote business growth and provide jobs in this Adirondack community.

I have been involved in prior discussions of possibilities for this area and am very excited to see movement.

Over the year, the town has been very active in improving our waterfront, through planning initiatives.

Providing overnight accommodations is a requirement to todayÕ s tourism industry, remaining competitive and attracting tourism dollars. Attracting visitors to the area and providing an economy for tourism would sustain local businesses and attract entrepreneurs in this community.

Catherine Sprague President, Moriah Chamber of Commerce

Dan Alexander

Publisher/CEO

L

ast week I had the privilege of serving as a panelist when the Keene Valley Library hosted their continuing series on current topics.

Last weekÕ s topic was a discussion on todayÕ s news environment with an underlying concern on Ò fake news.Ó I shared the panel with Brad Hurlburt, history and government teacher at Keene Central School; Joe Pete Wilson, Keene town supervisor; and moderator Peter Slocum, a former newspaperman.

It was a great community service and a tremendous way to bring communities together in a casual atmosphere for a respectful face to face discussion of the issues of concern to us all.

As part of the discussion, Mr. Hurlburt noted at one point during in his opening remarks how distraught the majority of the students in his class were the day after the recent presidential election. He noted he hadnÕ t seen that level of emotion since Sept.

11, 2001, the day we now know as 9-11.

Listening to his and Supervisor WilsonÕ s comments, struck a cord back to my school days to an event I could relate to in similar fashion. ItÕ s a date, if you were alive then, you can remember exactly where you were and what you were doing when the news arrived.

The day was Friday, Nov. 22, 1963.

Time stopped when we learned our young President John F. Kennedy had been assassinated in Dallas, Texas. The event had an even closer connection as I was a third grader living in Dallas at the time awaiting the return of a classmate, lucky enough to leave school in the middle of the day, to see the motorcade and report back to the class.

At the time, I didnÕ t understand very much about politics, but I knew my parents were Republicans. I recognized their sincere shock and sadness at the time and itÕ s as vivid in my mind today, the respect they held for the office and the man as it transcended party lines.

Given the topic discussion of the evening, I couldnÕ t help but wonder as polarized as we are here in 2017, some 53 years removed from that event, how our nation would collectively react to a similar event today, with either former President Obama or President Trump.

That event touched nearly every American, if not every world citizen deeply, regardless of party affiliation or nationality.

Still, I canÕ t help but wonder about our reaction to a similar event today and how opportunities like this one at the Keene Valley Library can help us recognize we have so much more in common than the energy we waste fighting over the few areas where we disagree.

We all need to find ways to close this divide, not only for our sake but for the sake of future generations.

Newcomer edges out incumbent in North Warren school board race

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

CHESTERTOWN Ñ A mother of two who campaigned on boosting academic standards and improving the local school boardÕ s relationship with the community has won a seat on the North Warren Central School Board of Education.

Cortney Swan, 37, of Chestertown was elected May 16 in a four-way race for three seats.

Frank Hill, who has served on the board for at least three decades, received 227 votes and lost his seat.

Swan received 345 votes, while incumbents John Maday and Mike Erickson garnered 349 and 270 votes, respectively.

All were present Tuesday night at the school when the vote results were tabulated.

Swan wept as the vote count was announced. Ò I was happy I won, but I felt bad for Frank because heÕ s done so much over the years for the community Ñ and people really appreciate what heÕ s done,Ó she said.

Swan is a 1998 graduate of Glens Falls High School, where she was an accomplished student-athlete. Later, she received Associates degrees in Science, Math and Criminal Justice Ñ as well as certification as an Invasive Cardiovascular Specialist from Albany Medical Center.

Swan said that in recent years, parents have been occasionally at odds with the school administration and board, and sheÕ d like to help improve the relationship.

The newly-minted school board member said sheÕ d like to boost the boardÕ s outreach to the community so all stakeholders can work together towards common goals.

SheÕ s been attending meetings for months, including the local parent-teacher organization and school-community action committees. Ò IÕ ve been representing the mothers of North Warren,Ó she said. Ò I have a big voice, and IÕ ll be speaking up.Ó

PattiÊ StetsonÊ namedÊ NorthÊ WarrenÊ ChamberÊ of Ê CommerceÊ VIP

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

POTTERSVILLE Ñ A woman who for decades has co-managed one of the most successful businesses in northern Warren County Ñ yet reserved time to volunteer her services to her community Ñ has received a top local civic award.

Patti Stetson, co-proprietor of the fabled Black Bear Restaurant of Pottersville, has been named V.I.P. of the Year by the North Warren Chamber of Commerce.

Stetson is to be honored at the ChamberÕ s annual V.I.P. Banquet, to be held Thursday May 25 at JimboÕ s Club. The event begins at 5:30 p.m. with a cash bar.

For 67 years Ñ long before the Adirondack Northway was constructed Ñ the Black Bear Restaurant has been a landmark stopover for people traveling through New York State.

PattiÕ s mother-in-law Delva Stetson acquired the business in 1950, and her son Butch Stetson, PattiÕ s husband, became proprietor in the early 1970s. Patti assumed the role of co-manager in 1984 or so.

The business is credited as the largest employer in Pottersville Ñ and the mainstay of the hamletÕ s commerce. The enterprise is known for its hearty food and the convivial socializing in its tavern.

Even on a weekday mid-afternoon, several dozen vehicles can be seen parked in front Ñ when other local businesses are idle.

Her Chamber award, however, is not only for leading a thriving business for many years, but for her work in the community as well.

Since the mid-1980s, Patti has handled the Black BearÕ s finances, book-work and payroll Ñ as well as helping out when needed in the kitchen or waiting on tables.

But despite all these responsibilities, sheÕ s also devoted time to community service. For 17 years, sheÕ s been the North Warren Chamber of CommerceÕ s volunteer Treasurer, handling finances, preparing payroll and tackling government forms.

Drafted into the position in 2000, Stetson introduced the Chamber to computerized payroll and accounting.

Ò I started preparing all the employee forms, conducting the accounting procedures and the quarterly reports, same as I was doing for our restaurant,Ó she said. Ò ItÕ s been an interesting job Ñ the people at the Chamber have been really good to work with over the years.Ó Deciding to cut her work load eight months ago, she announced her retirement from the Chamber post, and the group has been seeking a replacement since then, Stetson said.

Also, for 10 years she served as treasurer of the Pottersville Fire District, handling the books with expertise through the period of time they built their new $2.8 million fire station in 2003. Her work included preparing hundreds of financial statements and documents as well as paying the districts bills over her decade of service. Ò Patti was a key part of the bonding process, and well as working day-to-day to pay the fire districtÕ s bills,Ó said Guy Swartwout, who served as Pottersville Fire Chief through that era Ñ and until last year.

Stetson said the work was a challenge, but rewarding. Ò It was quite an experience making sure I had all the IÕ s dotted and the TÕ s crossed,Ó she said.

Remarking on the Black BearÕ s ongoing success, Stetson deferred credit to others. Ò WeÕ ve got the best employees in the world Ñ our core group is amazing,Ó she said.

ABOVE: Black Bear Restaurant co-proprietor Patti Stetson pauses from her work Friday preparing payroll for the fabled eatery and tavern to share her thoughts about her career — both at the Black Bear and in civic service.

McCluskeyÊ HardwareÊ Ñ Ê renownedÊ forÊ itsÊ serviceÊ andÊ communityÊ ties

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

CHESTERTOWN Ñ A hardware store thatÕ s been a vital commercial resource in northern Warren County for nearly 35 years has received a prominent award.

McCluskey Hardware & Supply of Chestertown, a mainstay in the townÕ s retail scene, has been awarded the 2017 Business of the Year by the North Warren Chamber of Commerce.

An banquet will be held this week to honor the storeÕ s proprietors, Jim and Judy McCluskey, as well as the ChamberÕ s V.I.P. of the Year, Patti Stetson. The event is to be held Thursday, May 25 at JimboÕ s Club on Rte. 8 northeast of Brant Lake. The event starts at 5:30 p.m. with a cash bar.

McCluskey Hardware has been a mainstay in the commercial scene in Chestertown for decades, focusing on the needs of the areaÕ s families. Committed to customer service, their business has been a remarkable success throughout an era when many other enterprises have struggled.

As of May 15, the storeÕ s proprietors Jim and Judy McCluskey have retired, passing the enterprise onto a new owner Ñ Rob Hill.

Jim McCluskey said he and Judy started the business in May 1983, a stretch of time after ChestertownÕ s former hardware store closed. Ò IÕ ve been blessed with having both wonderful employees and great customers,Ó McClus-

key said. Ò The most rewarding part of my career here is all the friends IÕ ve made among my customers.Ó Local residents have always been able to depend on a wide inventory of goods at McCluskeyÕ s Hardware, plus valuable advice to accompany their purchase.

But thatÕ s not all. Jim and Judy McCluskey have always donated to community fundraisers Ñ likely hundreds in the nearly 35 years theyÕ ve been in business. Ò TheyÕ ve always contributed generously to various community functions and benefits,Ó local community advocate Mary Jane Dower said this week. Ò They are a wonderful couple Ñ a real asset to

the community.Ó Barbara Repp of the Chamber said Jim built a cabinet and donated it to the organization. Ò Jim is really community-minded,Ó she said. Ò HeÕ s always volunteering and contributing.Ó Although the McCluskeys have turned over their hardware store, Jim will still be seen on the premises.

HeÕ ll be continuing his sideline of cabinetmaking and woodworking in the shop southern end of the store.

His Adirondack chairs and picnic tables can be found throughout the county Ñ but he also makes armoires, chests of drawers, shelves, tables, and night-

stands in addition to outfitting kitchens with custom cabinetry in the rustic, Shaker style Ñ all at modest prices.

JimÕ s woodworking began as a hobby in his basement, but grew into a thriving enterprise Ñ last year alone, he built and sold 80 picnic tables.

Dower said her son bought several pieces of furniture that McCluskey created, and their family enjoys them immensely, as well as appreciating the store. Ò Their store is a great asset to the area,Ó she said praising McCluskeyÕ s customer service and its deep inventory which is between 8,000 and 9,000 different items. Ò You can find nearly everything there that you may need.Ó McCluskey said he will continue to work in the woodworking shop creating rustic furniture, until Rob Hill needs the space for expansion.

He said heÕ s looking forward to retirement, and sees the storeÕ s change in ownership as a positive move. Ò Rob is likely to bring new ideas to the store Ñ thatÕ s how businesses thrive,Ó he said. Ò ItÕ s good for a community to have young adults running businesses.Ó Jim and Judy McCluskey take a break from work in their business, McCluskey Hardware & Supply, based in Chestertown. The enterprise has been awarded Business of the Year by the North Warren Chamber of Commerce, based on the couple’s longstanding commitment to the community.

FromÊ sharedÊ divisionÊ titleÊ toÊ outrightÊ championship After splitting girl’s hoops title, Bolton and Schroon Lake join for softball crown

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK Ñ Three months ago, the Bolton and Schroon Lake girlÕ s varsity basketball teams were locked in a battle for the Mountain and Valley Athletic Conference southern division crown, which they would split.

Fast forward to last Friday, May 12, when student-athletes from both schools scored an 11-4 win over Johnsburg, winning the MVAC southern division softball title as a merged program. Ò Over the winter, the games were pretty intense but we were always joking around with each other and talking about softball,Ó said Bolton student Maddy Pratt. Ò When basketball season was over, we were all ready for this season to begin.Ó Ò We have picked up right from where we left off last season,Ó Schroon student Alora Bearor said.

Coach Melanie Persons agreed. Ò Cohesion has been a huge thing this season,Ó said Persons. Ò The first year, they definitely started to blend together and play well. This season, knowing each other and knowing what they each can do for the team has relieved that stress they may feel for having to do more than they need to. They love each other and they know what they can do as a team.Ó So far, that has led to the southern division title. Ò Last year did not finish they way we wanted it to, so we are definitely focused on finishing strong this year,Ó said Bolton students Caitlyn Johnson.

Both Johnson and Pratt bring experience from a deep run in the fall, as both were all-star members of the Bolton soccer team which made it to the final four. Ò It becomes a mental game in the playoffs and we have that under our belts,Ó Johnson said. Ò We can let the other players know what to expect so we can keep this run going.Ó Ò The main thing I tell everyone is that itÕ s going to get more stressful the deeper we go,Ó Pratt said. Ò We want to make sure every player is ready for that.Ó The squad has played solid on both sides of the field, in support of pitcher Abu Belorse. Ò It has been a shock,Ó Belrose said coming into the season as a first year starter in the circle. Ò I did not expect this but I kept working on my form and we have been able to play good defense.Ó Ò Abi has owned it this season,Ó Persons said. Ò She has been tremendous for us and a huge part of why we are where we are.Ó

BOYS EARN TITLE On the same day, the Bolton/Schroon Lake varsity baseball team earned their second straight MVAC southern division title, scoring a 4-2 win over Johnsburg. Ò From the preseason we have come so far,Ó said Brandon Hall. Ò This team Bolton/Schroon Lake’s Craig Wholey makes a play at first base against is really young with only Johnsburg May 12 .

try to drive counts up and get people on base. We have to clean it up on defense, but we are in a good position for the postseason.Ó Ò It has been really fun this season,Ó said Andrew Pelkey, a Schroon Lake sophomore who tossed a complete game two-hitter with 11 strikeouts in the division clincher. Ò I was really excited to play on the varsity team and was even more excited when I knew I would get the chance to pitch.Ó Ò Again this year, this team could not have come together any better,Ó coach

Mark Andrejkovics said. Ò We have a sophomore battery in this game and Drew did a great job. Yo have a young pitcher win two big games for us against a team like Johnsburg has been huge.Ó Andrejkovics said the team has to continue to focus on what they can do heading into sectionals. Ò Just keep up with what we are doing,Ó he said. Ò This is a group of kids who have fun playing the game and practicing the game. Our seniors have done a good job with the younger players preaching discipline and they have done just that.Ó

Minerva/Newcomb’s Caleb Winter threw a no-hitter last week against Indian Lake/Long Lake.
